A new sports bar will open on High Street in Penrith later this year – and it has a high profile owner.
Two-time Clive Churchill Medal winner Nathan Cleary is part of the ownership group of Freddy’s, which will open at the site of the now closed Duck Duck Goose bar and restaurant.
The bar is named after Panthers 1991 Grand Final winner Brad Fittler.
It’s an expansion of Cleary’s off-field business interests, with the Panthers co-captain also a part owner in Drink West, a growing beer brand and brewery.
“Penrith has been crying out for another sports bar to go watch the footy, races or fights. Opening a sports bar is an exciting prospect. It will add to the brand,” Cleary told The Daily Telegraph.
The bar is expected to open in June.
