The pub is also known as Kellys after the Kelly family having a 60-year affiliation to the venue. The Farmers Arms Bistro is named Kellys Bistro for this reason.

After a few bad years, Chris, Laura and Shane Stewart have run the Hotel since Nov 2019, after rebranding and a colour change the Hotel is being brought back to its former glory.

Chris and Shane have a strong connection to the town with their grandparents immigrating to Tocumwal in the mid-1970s from Ukraine. Shane has been a chef since he was 18, mastered his culinary skills in London for 10 years, Chris had been working in the building industry since the age of 16 and Laura had completed some hospitality at a younger age.

The family works hard to make you feel welcome in their cosy country hotel.

With some of the best food and local wine in the region, The Farmers Arms is well worth a visit.
