This is a nice outback pub with some great character.

Behind the pub is a small camping ground. Amenities are clean,

HOWEVER - THE OWNERS ARE NOT FRIENDLY SO DON'T EXPECT THE USUAL OUTBACK FRIENDLINESS - THEY WERE ALMOST RUDE.

We did not have a nice stay because of their behaviour, and we did not do anything wrong, except, perhaps - didn't go drinking in their pub!

We found the prairie pub people to be very friendly and helpful, They must of said or done something stupid to upset the publican, Always treat people how you like to be treated yourself.

 One Of The Best Outback Pub In QLD

The people who wrote this inaccurate comment above obviously have not travelled very much and shouldn't camp out the back of pubs. It is a free camp out the back of the Prairie pub and all you have to do is have a drink in return for the free camp,It is all about contribution to the local economy so that these pubs and free camps are still there for fellow travelers like ourselves

 Friendly owners

We stayed here recently and found the owners of the pub were very friendly. We had a very entertaining evening with them. It is the people who stay here for free and who do not come in for a drink, who spoil it for everyone else.

 RECENT VISIT/LUNCH

HOW COULD YOU EVEN SAY THAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE AT THIS PUB?? I ONLY MET THE LADY OWNER AND SHE WAS VERY NICE. SOME TRAVELLERS HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT A LOT OF OUTBACK PEOPLE ARE VERY SHY AND RESERVED AND MAY APPEAR A BIT OFF HAND, BUT THEY ARE THE VERY OPPOSITE. ONCE YOU GET TALKING AND BE AT THEIR LEVEL THEY ARE AMAZINGLY RESILIENT PEOPLE. MY LUNCH WAS AWESOME, UNHURRIED AND HIT THE SPOT. I MET A LOCAL STATION OWNER WHO WAS VERY INTERESTING TO TALK TOO, EASY ON THE EYE TOO,LOL. ITS THE OUTBACK, WE DONT COME OUT HERE FOR OVER THE TOP CITY SERVICE. IF U EXPECT THAT, U BETTER STAY HOME. I HOPE THE LADY PUBLICAN WHO I MET READS THIS BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO KNOW I WENT TO THE T.I.C.IN HBUGHENDEN AND SAW YOUR PEACOCK FEATHERED BRA YOUR DRESSED FOR BREAST CANCER AWARNESS. IT WAS PLACED ON A MODEL BUST AND LOOKED STUNNING. OH AND I SAW THE WELDED BRA, AZTEC STYLE WITH NIPPLES!! JUST AWESWOME. IM STILL LOOKING FOR THE SPIDERS. ILL LET U KNOW IF I FIND SOME THE SAME.

 Great Pub, nice bloke, but unfriendly lady
by: Anonymous

We are very experienced RVers and have been travelling for years, so we know what constitutes a warm country welcome.

We stayed there and also found the woman rude and abrasive. We ended up leaving without saying goodbye (unheard of for us) because she was so rude.

She was not shy - just snappy and irritable and downright rude. She's been doing it for too long, obviously and needs a holiday!

BUT, the barman, Tom, was great and very welcoming. We had a beer and then we ordered dinner (not too good!) and we stayed for breaky the next morning so we spent a lot of money - no excuses for her churlishness.

The pub is very interesting and has been well decorated in collected pieces to match the era.
