The Gateway Hotel - Mareeba

This pub has a charming and cool atmosphere, with staff who are clearly happy to be working there. The ladies' room even had artwork! The ordering station and kitchen are lit up by a very long skylight. The bar may be a bit intimidating, but don't let that deter you. I ordered the slow-cooked beef rib pie with mushy peas, gravy, buttered mash, and onion rings, and while it may sound simple, the chef prepared each ingredient perfectly. A true gem of a place!

The Gateway restaurant holds a special place in the history of this town. I really admire the style of the restaurant and overall had a pleasant experience. The kids had a great time playing on the playground, and I appreciated that the restaurant was clean. However, I wasn't too impressed with the head chef. I personally didn't like seeing him eating while he was cooking our food. On the bright side, the management was very professional and courteous, and the wait staff was also very professional and attentive.

A quite little Nook in the main main street of Mareeba. A quaint atmosphere. No NEED booking the restaurant. THE reception was very welcoming at the entrance AND the same guy led us to the vacant table. This kind good looking bloke was courteous and hospitable welcoming us to his hotel and restaurant. The food was tasty and quickly AND freshly cooked served by a smiling and accommodating waitress. My daughter and I enjoyed the vibrant and pleasant luncheon. Overall top notch in my list. I'll go back for another meal sometime.

Every time we have visited this restaurant, it has been a fantastic experience. The food is consistently delicious and definitely worth trying. The atmosphere is welcoming and the staff are friendly. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting or passing through Mareeba. A special thank you to Sarah for helping with my Easter tickets while I enjoyed my meal - you are a rockstar! Keep up the great work!

Awesome Pub!! Amazing meals. If you are nearby and hungry.. do yourself a favour and have a feed. And on top of that, the staff are really nice and know their job. Highly recommend!!
