Australian - Townsville

Can't go wrong. $10 for 400g rump on Tuesdays lunch and dinner.

We walked in to the Australian on Thursday arvo and was greeted by a lovely woman who we found out last night is the owner) who was more then happy for a chat. We returned on Friday afternoon for a few games of pool and was then greeted by a young barman named Matt, who once again was up for a chat and gave us some local knowledge. We loved the laid back pub lifestyle the Australian had to offer. We were very impressed by the friendly staff and cleanliness of the pub. SO .. We returned on Saturday afternoon as it was our last night in town. Dave and I absolutely love this pub.. Great atmosphere, great staff and great conversations with the staff. We must say that Matt goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome and to make sure we get a few laughs too. We highly recommend that if you are in Townsville that the Australian on palmer st is the place to be. Oh and have a chat with Matt cheers

Thanks Rob and Katie for allowing us the venue for our sons 21st. Your flexibility with catering and professional service to our guests was great. We had a great night and all our guests enjoyed the venue. The meals we had were good and we will be back for a meal.The Australian is as Australian as it gets and we would recommend it to all.

Best 'Dirty and Cheap ' Hotel in town. Don 't expect food to be served at the same time, or to be of amazing quality. But you can 't bet a $10 for a parmy and pot of beer

New bottleshop on palmer street is great. Great location and good selection. Excellent service from a friendly person behind the counter. We will be back for sure.
