An institution in the coastal hub of Gladstone, the Grand is the ideal meeting place for a casual drink and snack.

Serving crowd-favourite draught beers on tap, as well as an excellent selection of Australian and New Zealand wines and cocktails, patrons are invited to pull up a stool and take a load off after a long day of work or night out with friends. Light bar snacks are also available, with the option for a full meal at the Oak & Vine restaurant next door. The federation décor is reminiscent of the pub’s 19th-century origins, with wide glass windows allowing for a relaxed ambience while watching the world go by on the streets outside.

Live music is a staple of the Grandstand Bar, with the best local artists often performing for locals and visitors to Gladstone alike.

For those looking for ideally located accommodation in Gladstone, the Oaks Gladstone Hotel offers modern and comfortable apartment-style rooms upstairs from the bar.
