Australian National Hotel

We held our sons 21st Birthday Party at the Aussie Nash. Fabulous venue and amazing staff. On the night the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Food was great and the room also a great spot for a large group. Barry, Nikki and the team were very helpful and understood what we wanted on the night. Thank you guys for making Jack's 21st birthday a huge success. Karen

This is a good bar. There is a great (and clean) pool table with good pool cues, a load of gambling options and a fair selection of drinks. They have good priced drink specials like a pint for $6 and the staff seem very nice and helpful. Very good location, especially if you're coming or going to the Gabba. They have daily meal deals, however I was a bit disappointed with the food. Our meals came out at different times and it didn't seem the best of quality (think it was a frozen burger).

The national really missed the mark on the food. Chips were obviously not fresh, salad looked absolutely grim. Rump steak was just average. There are just better alh venues.

The best pub to be at on Game Day. $9.90 jugs of XXXX If you want seats, get in early but plenty of standing room

The Aussie Nash is a decent pub very closely located to the Gabba. Food was reasonably priced, enjoyed my Steak Sandwich.

Recently held a party in the upstairs function room, The National Secret. Functions team were amazing when assisting with the organising / planning. Allowing access to the venue prior to the event, providing decor as well as allowing us to bring our own. Patiently answering my 1000 questions. On the night, the bar staff were awesome - attentive, polite, assisting with anything we needed. Also, agreeing to stay a little later so we could continue to enjoy ourselves. The platters of food were delicious, with great options and incredibly accommodating with multiple and unusual dietary requirements. I had many compliments from my guests on the venue aesthetic, ambience, staff and food. The minimum spend was incredibly reasonable, particularly for the space. Would def host another party there and totally recommend it!

Perfect atmosphere for work, play or just drinkin with a chicky babe… 5 star all round….

Oh, for a top-notch pub experience, you've got to check out The Australian national hotel in the Gabba It's a fantastic spot right near the city with a great vibe and delicious food. Rachel is the best! You'll love it!

Love the staff super nice, but alh need to change the management, place has gone down hill in the last 6 months

Loved the staff and atmosphere until I noticed a change in management, absolutely downhill since then.

Location is nice. Chicken Schnitzel and chips were undercooked.

i love their pub most specially their steak - THAT WAS A YEAR AGO. I dont know what happened, now their steak is too dry and tastes different. It wasn’t like this before. Also, i’ve noticed they no longer have the chicken buffalo that i usually liked. Said they changed their menu. Well, change is good but sadly, it isnt this time.

Had a 30th at the Aussie national over the weekend and hire the venue upstairs. Staff where friendly and so easy to talk to regarding setting up etc. huge area dance floor, do booth 2x lounge areas your own smokers area and even a reception desk at the front before they can enter inside. Will definitely be back again.

Great staff, plenty of beers and a large variety of spirits and wines. Functions room upstairs is huge with a large smoking area and separate outdoor courtyard for the non smokers. Different seating areas and bars are ideal. Can pick between bar, bistro or gaming depending on your mood and group. Minimum of 20 TV's and 2 projectors showing the latest and live sports and racing.

Great place to come watch the footy and have a couple drinks. Staff and service are lovely.

Great food and service… Friendly staff…. Alyssa you are the best!

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. So glad it’s my local

Good pub grub when u don't want to cook 😉 It's one of my local pubs and has a great, pretty chilled atmosphere. All your usuals like pokies, sports bar and place to go for a pretty good meal n drink of choice. With a selection of old-school aussie pub favourites like chicken parmy, steak chips n salad (or opt for an eye fillet 🤤). There is pasta, 🐟 🍟 n calamari, and they offer senior meal deals and ones for the kids ! There are a few 🥗 pretty healthy meal options to choose from and consistently enjoyable. Thanks to all the staff, great friendly service excellence 👏

Good big size pub with plenty of parking good selection of meals and 17 different beers on tap. Pokies room, smoking dosa, upstairs function room for both private functions and public, big TAB set up, always found it clean and fantastic service with the bar staff. Not to mention Dan Murphys is right next door.

Food is amazing and the service is impeccable 👌 couldn't recommend it more! And they have the NBA on the big screens!

FOOD & DRINK The Aussie Nash is part of the A.L.H. Group of Hotels, whose stable includes the Royal Exchange Hotel, the Brunswick, the Newstead, the Indooroopilly, Newmarket and many others in and around Brisbane. We‘ve been to most of them and have never failed to be impressed by the high standard of food, service and hygiene. The A.N. was no exception. My wife and I dined on a quiet Saturday night in November. We kept the ordering protocol fairly simple: a schooner of Great Northern Super Crisp for me and a lemon, lime and bitters for my wife, followed by two main meals, the senior steak with chips, salad and pepper sauce ($19) and the Buddha bowl with lemon and pepper flavoured calamari for my wife ($28). My steak was well cooked to perfection, just the way I like it, but still tender and full of flavour. The crispy chips and nutritious salad made the perfect accompaniment. The Buddha bowl had rice, seaweed, avocado, cucumber, tomato, vegetables and lettuce, and topped with a soy and sesame dressing. All the ingredients were fresh, tasty and wholesome. Adding the calamari was a genius move to give it an extra zing and lift. We ended with our fav sticky date pud at 10 pesos. The pud was sweet and moist, covered with a syrupy butterscotch sauce, and sprinkled with a few drops of castor sugar. All meals were nicely presented to the table on stylish and colourful crockery. AMBIENCE The A.N. is airy, spacious and homely, with plenty of room to stretch out and get comfortable. Outside the bistro is the billiards area, and there’s also a pub and a poker machine room, so there are many different spaces here to enjoy. We stuck to the bistro area. The decor is retro industrial style, with high ceilings, strong lighting, wood and steel furniture and carpets throughout. This all works beautifully to create an inviting, warm and welcoming atmosphere. Being a quiet night, there was only a smattering of other guests, but that didn’t detract from the overall cool ambience. Acoustics were good and we were easily able to converse. SERVICE It was a breeze to order using the app. You simply scan the little barcode that’s attached to a disc on your table, and place your order. Payment is done immediately, and you’ll receive an email of your bill. This simplifies the whole procedure, although only afterwards did I notice that seniors are entitled to 20% discount off regular menu items, but of course the app didn’t recognise that, so we lost out. After completing the ordering, meals were brought out to the table pretty quickly by a super nice young man, neatly turned out in a smart black uniform. He was polite, friendly and attentive, and in his capable hands, everything ran smoothly from beginning to end, and that’s just how we like it! COST All up, for a schooner of Great Northern, a cold drink, two main meals and a single dessert we paid 70 pesos, so thank you to the A.L.H. Group for at least providing some financial relief to hard-pressed senior citizens. This at least is an affordable evening out for us, and it’s worth mentioning here, that most of the A.L.H. group hotels that we’ve visited have seniors menus and modest prices for both food and drink. TOILETS Toilets are behind the bistro. There are ample male and female cubicles, and they’re clean and well provisioned, although I did notice some graffiti in the male toilet. PARKING There’s easy parking right outside, in the venue’s own car park, which it shares with the popular and well-stocked Dan Murphy liquor store. This makes it extra convenient, especially if you’re still thirsty after your meal, as you can always pop into D.M. to top up the beer or wine cellar. SUMMARY We love the A.L.H. Hotel Group and have had positive experiences at all their hotels. They have consistently high standards, with reasonable prices to match. The Aust Nash as it is affectionately called, now goes on our list of favourites for a return visit. With great food and service, modest prices, a relaxed ambience, clean toilets and easy parking, you have all the ingredients for a perfect night out.

Fantastic pub, great food as all alh pubs have. Good beer.

Came here after work with the fellas and enjoyed a beef pie for lunch with a couple of beers. Food was great and the vibes were high. Staff here are exceptional. Some of the friendliest bar staff in Brisbane

Big thank you to Rachel and the team at the Aussie Nash best pub in the Brisbane and surrounding area's appreciate the service everytine

Best Local watering hole in the whole South east Queensland top notch service from Rachel and the team and the aussie nash second to None

Been there twice this week at 3:30am and they have closed already so BS advertising they are open till 4am everyday get rid of the false signage outside people or actually stay open till 4am. Apart from this I would of given them 5 stars as food/venue/staff/location are just that just pity the false advertisement about gaming hours outside.

Amazing pub. Great beer and food and amazing service from Rachel

Always our go to for a steak and a beer on a Friday. Never disappoints. Alyssa is always friendly and pours a perfect beer!
