After years running pubs for large operations such as NLG, Redcape and Public House Management Group, Alistair Flower took the plunge into freehold ownership with the Settlers Tavern in Port Macquarie in late 2015.
Quickly adopting the change of pace, he has set about building a brand and reputation in what is one of the NSW north coast’s rapidly growing towns, with a population of more than 100,000 projected by 2036.
Flower sat down with PubTIC to discuss life at Settlers, and what makes Port Macquarie pubs tick.
Nice work. I live in Port Mac and agree that it’s a great place for new businesses to cater to a growing market. Will defiinately go down and check out the Settlers and say hi to Alistair!
