There’s nothing we love more than a solid watering hole—especially one with a beer garden, endless entertainment, and a decked out kid’s playground we’ve clocked in some time.
Enter: Everton Park Hotel. This northside institution has always been a go-to, but after an extensive revamp, it’s next-level. Whether you're catching up with mates, wrangling the kids, or chasing good vibes and a cold brew, this spot delivers. No matter where you are in Brisbane (trust us, it’s worth the trip), Everton Park Hotel is calling your name. So, gather your gang and get ready to meet your new local.
Treat Yo’self To A Tipple In The Beer Garden
Everton Park Hotel nailed the brief when it comes to living that sun-soaked Queensland dream. Their beer garden is a sprawling oasis for balmy arvos with your crew. With its own bar slinging icy beers and cocktails, stop by on the weekend for their Backyard Beats sesh where you can enjoy vinyl DJs from 2-5 pm before local musos take over from 6-8 pm. All you need to do now is pick which picnic table to make the most of the afternoons under the mood under twinkling festoon lights.
Footy fan? Their outdoor big screens stream all the big games, while on the weekend, Backyard Beats brings vinyl DJs from 2-5 pm before local musos take over from 6-8 pm.
Soak Up The Action In The Sports Bar
Diehard sporting fans will want to head directly to Everton Park Hotel’s sports bar. An epic spot to gather, you can catch all the live action on big screens inside or out on the deck.
Post-game, unleash your competitive side by challenging your mates to a game of pool, air hockey or ping pong. Celebrate the end of the week with Everton Park Hotel’s ‘Sunday Social’, where you can catch every UFC fight live and loud, plus free games of pool and air hockey.
Or put your chips on the line every Monday in the sports bar at the weekly poker night. Kicking off at 6 pm, it’s free to join with prizes like vouchers for your next reservation up for grabs.
Feast On Mouthwatering Eats
If a pub’s worth is measured in parmis, then consider Everton Park Hotel pure gold. Fresh off a glow-up, the bistro is now the spot for family feasts, mid-week munching, or laid-back catch-ups with your friends.
What’s on the menu? It's still packed with the classics (hello, towering burgers, wood-fired pizzas, melt-in-your-mouth steak and the aforementioned parmis), but now with some refreshed additions.
Think grilled Queensland prawns dripping in lemon butter, crispy popcorn cauliflower with vegan chipotle aioli, and a full rack of smoky BBQ pork ribs. And for the kids? Dagwood dogs, teriyaki chicken bowls, and a DIY soft serve station.
Let The Little Ones Run Wild At Kids Club
The biggest in the area, this childs wonderland is packed with interactive games, vibrant play zones, and enough fun to tire out even the most energetic little adventurers.
Plus, there’s a lineup of free special events throughout the year—think magicians, farm animals, and balloon artists. While the kids run wild, parents can kick back in the beer garden. Birthday coming up? Party packages start at just $28 per child, with the team only too happy to include any magical touches you desire.
Plan Your Next Catch-Up
No matter the day of the week, Everton Park Hotel always has something planned. On Tuesdays, test your knowledge with the pub’s weekly trivia. It’s free to play and kicks off at 6 pm in the beer garden. On Wednesdays bring your appetite and order their parmi, with $1 from every order donated directly to Bravehearts charity.
