Andrew "Dunny" Dunne used to stop by the Royal Oak Hotel in Tighes Hill for a schooner with his skateboard tucked under his arm.
He says he's always "had a soft spot" for the old pub and a lot of time for its owner, Barry Barnett. So when Dunny heard there was a possibility the Oak could be taken over by developers, he felt compelled to act. And, with the help of business partner and chef Josh Nicholson, Dunny has restored the Oak to its former glory while remaining true to its roots.
