TAB at the Ettamogah Pub

The Ettamogah Pub has a TAB open daily from 9am with seven LCD screens and four electronic touch-screen form guides. To keep in line with the quirkiness of the Ettamogah Pub, the TAB was designed to complement the iconic structure.  The TAB has corrugated iron walls and the furniture on site, including the unique handmade boomerang-shaped main table, is made from local Blackbutt gum trees which were cleared from the site during construction of the Ettamogah Pub over 20 years ago.  The seating area is ample and has plenty of room to write out tickets.  Lunch, snacks and dinner available.

Goose Club

Every Friday night from 5pm is our famous and entertaining Goose Club with 20 great prizes on offer each week.  See you here!

Background History

The original creator of the Ettamogah Pub was Ken Maynard who started drawing the Ettamogah Pub in 1959. It was made famous through his regular cartoons in The Australasian Post.

The Aussie World Ettamogah Pub was built in 1989 and the word "ettamogah" is Aboriginal for "place of good drink!"  Now one of Queensland's leading tourist attractions it stands at an impressive 18m in height.  It's a must to visit due to its quirky shape and caricature appearance.  It was opened on 24th November 1989 with most of the furniture inside the pub built from trees cleared from the actual site. 

There's a 1930 Chevy truck on top of the bright red roof of the Ettamogah Pub.  In the cartoon the theory is the truck was washed up there in the floods of 1946 and none of the regulars could be bothered to get it down.  There are also pictures of the cartoons hanging around the walls of the Pub along with other eclectic displays of everything Australian.
