The venue, to be known as Watson’s from here on out, has received a million-dollar facelift after being taken over by Michael Watson (Wats On Events) and business partner, West Tigers director, Danny Stapleton. This tired old haunt has undergone quite the glow-up while the rest of us were in lockdown. However, on your next visit to Moore Park, it won't be PJ's quenching your thirst. PJ Gallagher’s Irish Pub was a longstanding choice for a beer before a gig at the Hordern, a spritz after a show at Max Watts, or a meeting point under the massive Moreton Bay fig trees that guard the pub when Cirque du Soleil or Magic Mike Live were pitching a tent. There are any number of reasons you may have headed out to the Entertainment Quarter in the past, but if you found yourself thirsty while you were in this relatively isolated corner of town, there was really only one option for a casual bevvie.
