WELCOME TO
WILLIAM FARRER HOTEL
The William Farrer Hotel — better known as The Faz — is Wagga Wagga’s iconic corner pub. Right in the heart of the CBD, it’s where locals, families and visitors come together — day in, day out.
This is a pub built on community. A place for easy catch-ups, long lunches, post-work drinks and big local moments. From Anzac Day traditions to weekend sport and everyday stories at the bar, The Faz has long been part of Wagga’s rhythm.
Settle into the front bar, grab a table in the beer garden, or head into the bistro with family and friends. Wherever you land, you’ll find good food, cold drinks and a warm welcome waiting.
Wagga Gold Cup Week
Wagga Gold Cup Week is one of the biggest weeks on the calendar at The Faz. The pub fills up, the atmosphere lifts and there’s something happening across the week.
It starts with the Calcutta nights, bringing everyone together ahead of race day, before rolling into Gold Cup Day itself — live racing in venue, a full house and the kind of energy that carries right through the afternoon.
When the last race wraps, the day doesn’t slow down. The afterparty kicks in and The Faz stays exactly where it should be — right at the centre of it all.
EAT & DRINK
At William Farrer Hotel, we offer a mouthwatering variety of dishes designed to delight every palate. Much of our fresh produce is sourced from our favourite local suppliers, while our signature “from the grill” items feature premium cuts from Australia’s top grazing regions.
At The Faz, food is all about bringing people together. Our bistro serves up a menu that balances pub classics with Italian-inspired favourites — made using fresh, locally sourced Riverina produce wherever possible.
Whether it’s a quick lunch, a family dinner, or a relaxed meal with friends, the William Farrer Hotel is a go-to spot for dining in Wagga Wagga.
