List of pubs in Australia

The Young and Jackson Hotel in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

This is a list of notable pubs in Australia. A pub (in Australia) is an establishment performing many functions, often serving alcoholic beverages, meals, and providing basic accommodation.

The Australian pub is a direct descendant of the British and Irish pub. The production and consumption of alcoholic drinks has long played a key role in Western commerce and social activity, and this is reflected in the importance of pubs in the British colonisation of Australia after 1788. However, in the 19th century the local version evolved a number of distinctive features that set it apart from the classic British or urban Irish pub.

There are an estimated 3,000 Australian themed pubs worldwide. They have been criticised for a lack of authenticity. They are particularly prevalent wherever expatriate communities are found, arguably due to a sense of connection to the Australian diaspora.[3][4]
