Any pub that's in Aus...& NOT in england  :laugh:

Been to a few pubs over the years (kicked out of a couple to  >:D )
But the most memorable was at a place called Spenser on the Hawksbury.
Out boating & pulled in to Spenser to access the bottle shop. Not actually a pub, but right on the water is (was?) a big old tree, hanging off one side on a branch was a bar sign saying 'Saloon', & another on the other side, but I forget what that sign said...'Lounge' or some such similar.
Was so tickled, we stayed a had a couple  :cheers:

I reckon the pub at Woods Point  is a winner :cup:

Went down there the other week with Rich and Tommo, had a nice steak sandwich and the beer on tap was nice and cold/crisp  :cheers:
Look forward to getting back there  :cheers:
Great spot. ;D

Don't forget the Kevington Hilton.  Any pub that has a camp ground is okay by me. :cheers:

Although ice cold schooners in the beer garden at Conargo Pub on a sunny arvo is pretty good.
Especially when the day before you got to watch the mighty Pies win the Grand Final, then Chisel live in concert at the Denni ute muster. ;D

St Andrews pub (Vic), on a cold winters Saterday standing in front of the open fire while the girlies across the road at the market.  Or on the front verandah in summer, or... I could keep going.

The pub at Derwent Bridge in Tassie. Don't remember it's name... COULD BE the Derewent Bridge Hotel. Great people, great atmosphere and the best sight in the world after completing the Overland Track. Love it!

Our club may have 15 flags, but they don't come around very often these days.  I have to gloat while I can.

Overland Corner Hotel, South Australia
Bushrangers, overlanders, ghosts and a beer! The Historic Overland Corner Hotel is both pub and living museum. This historic hotel was built in 1859 on the site - 'Overland Corner' - which had become a popular resting place for drovers.
:
Situated 700 metres from the Murray River, 46k from Renmark and 21 kilometres from Barmera off the Goyder Highway on the Old Coach Rd, the hotel boasts the biggest beer garden in the Riverland and includes a quaint dining room with two open log fire for those cold winter days, fully licensed venue, no byo, pool table and heaps of memorabilia of yester year. The hotel can cater for any occasion large or small.

There's camping at the pub or down by the river.

Best Pepper steak in Australia

St Andrews and Panton Hills pubs are pretty much our local's, been going to them for nearly 30 years.

Growing up in Warrandyte the Warrandyte pub was our local ( and my first job as an apprentice chef ) but we would go to St Andrews to see bands and smoke :)
