At the age of 59, Crowe spent nearly two hours at the pub over the weekend, engaging in discussions with its owner, Margaret Hargreaves, and her three daughters. The Academy Award-winning actor insisted that all key members of the Hargreaves family involved in the business be present for his pitch, which is rumored to exceed $12 million.<\/p>\n

Crowe went on to tour each of the pub’s three floors, which house boutique accommodations, a bistro, and private dining areas. He even ventured into the cellar, demonstrating his keen interest in the establishment.<\/p>\n

Onlookers observed the reactions of the regular patrons to Crowe’s unexpected appearance, describing it as a mixture of astonishment and curiosity. Crowe was overheard delivering an impassioned speech to the Hargreaves family, emphasizing his desire to preserve the pub’s ‘family-friendly atmosphere’ if he were to acquire this iconic establishment. Affectionately known as the ‘Shakey,’ the pub has been a beloved Sydney institution since its inception in 1879.<\/p>\n
