Who could resist the chance to sink a schooner at the highest pub in Queensland? This welcoming place is run by the same family that originally established it in 1927. The restaurant has a surprisingly extensive and excellent menu covering pub grub, seafood and authentic curries; don't miss its legendary Sunday buffet lunches ($20).
