Marina Tavern - WHITSUNDAYS

Great pub with good food, cold beer, decent prices and friendly staff. The views over the marina are pretty decent as well.

This was our favourite meal on Hamilton Island, the steaks were perfectly cooked to our liking (medium) with a generous side of potatoes and steamed garlic veggies. Be warned though, it was a LONG wait for food. We arrived at 6.30pm, waited about 20 minutes to be seated and about an hour for food, which they did advise us. But we had great views of the marina and were happy to sit and enjoy a drink. If you don't have kids it might be worth eating a bit later, maybe 8pm to avoid the queues.

Such a well priced pub with fabulous views, great beer, fab food and service. Thought I would pay crazy resort island pricing but this place has the best feels. Just classy, friendly and welcoming

A fun place with great views and standard food when you buy cruise packages and such, this place gives you great deals. Had gotten the southern fried chicken burger and while nice, there was no real “southern flavour” given to the chicken. One downside here is the amount of birds just vying for your meals, hovering near you when you eat, instantly attacking on vacated tables, and making heaps of noise while they’re there. This is beyond the staff’s control tho so I can’t hold it to the establishment just take it as a fair warning. They’ve got crowdDJ here as well so you can choose the music playing which is pretty good! Another plus is the great views and nice breeze this location has. Definitely worth the little walk.

Can recommend the Marina Tavern for a late afternoon drinks, especially if you have just arrived at the island. Upper level verandah gives a nice view over the nearby marina. Good service, reasonable prices, choice of indoor our outdoor seating on the verandah.
