Royal Oak Hotel

The 'Leap In, Limp Out' motto is dodgy, but the Royal Oak is still Launceston’s best pub. We really don't need to expand on this fact, but it's hard not to – brilliant beers, regular open-mic nights, live music Wednesday to Sunday and ballsy '70s rock on the stereo. If you're too old to be a hipster but still feel culturally valid, this is the place for you.
