At The Blue Heeler Hotel, we understand the roads are long and the stops between are even longer!
Situated between Winton (164km) and McKinlay (74km), The Blue Heeler Hotel is the perfect stopping point to refresh and grab a quick bite to eat with a nice cold beer.
While you're here, touch up on the history of Kynuna and be taken into the past where Banjo Patterson first performed the famous "Waltzing Matilda". You'll be delighted to find framed memorabilia on the pubs old walls and even have the ability to sign the walls with a kind donation to the Royal Flying Doctor Service.
Admire the gorgeous brick fireplace built by RM Williams while your here.
The Combo Waterhole is where Banjo Patterson penned Waltzing Matilda and is just down the road from the hotel (Roughly 17km) and is a great sight once you get to the end.
Testimonials
There is nothing fancy about this roadside hotel: very down to earth owners ready to serve you a beer or a meal. However after a long day on the road in the heat and the flies, this hotel transforms into a bloody great place to be. The beer is cold and the meals are great. There are only 12 people that live in the town but of a night you'll find 25 people in the bar happy to be there. This place is an oasis drawing in people from afar!

Stopped in for a look at this famous Outback Hotel at Kynuna. The Hotel has accommodation at the back, they serve meals and you can stop in for a beer or a coffee depending on your persuasion. The owner is a very friendly gent and happy to have a chat. Well worth a stop to check out the area and some of the memorabilia.

Stopped for the night on the way back home to Exmouth. Great place for a cold beer and a good old pub meal. Park your van and take a break next to this classic old pub with a story to tell. Cheap and very clean.
