Elvis came, he sang and has now left the building.....

Saturday 12th July, was a complete success, as Elvis Presley performed Live in front of The Shireburn Arms Audience. Singing and dancing to all the well known tracks, Carl Miller AKA Elvis had the audience in the palm of his hands as he belted out "Hound Dog, Suspicious Minds and Jail House Rock plus many more.


Speaking with some of the diners on the evening, all were very impressed with the food and service and of course the entertainment. Many were asking for the next Tribute Night. Not to disappoint any of those requests, we are now busily organising the next Tribute Night. Possibly Elton John, Tina Turner or even the Abbarettes - You will just have to wait and see which celebrity will perform next at The Shireburn Arms Hotel.


A few pictures below of the Elvis Night.

DON'T MISS OUT ON THE NEXT TRIBUTE NIGHT.

Introducing the Legendary ginger beer kid

(The Ginger nut himself with his case of Bundaberg ginger beer)

Oliver aka Chucky one of our kitchen porters whilst working at the Shireburn has developed a taste for one of Australia's finest exports Bundaberg ginger beer. He likes it so much that he asked us to fly a case all the way from down under. Its all we could do for him and of course our customers who risked drinking what is now known as Chuckys tipple.

Proud of his purchase he says "I cant get enough of the tangy gingery taste".
