Experience the historic Walloon Hotel just minutes from Ipswich, where country charm, hearty local fare, live music, weekend DJs, and family-friendly hospitality come together for a lively and unforgettable outing.

The historic Walloon Hotel, just minutes from Ipswich City, radiates country charm and warm hospitality—so much so that it’s not uncommon to see locals arriving on horseback out the front. Inside, the menu celebrates fresh, high-quality local produce served in generous portions, with dining that extends onto inviting undercover outdoor decks. Owned by Stewart and Katie Gibson, who relocated from Cairns to revive the former Walloon Saloon, the hotel focuses on creating a family-friendly, welcoming, and affordable experience. The lively atmosphere comes alive each week with live music, DJs on weekends, Friday night raffles with prizes, and the annual visit of the famed Fred Brophy Boxing Troupe.
