Publican | The (New) Benowa Tavern
This is a REALLY special opportunity to run an absolute cracker of a venue right in the heart of the Gold Coast! The Benowa Tavern (4217) is looking for its next Publican to take the reins.
Following a $5 million refurb & transformation, the Benowa Tavern has shed its skin. We have re-designed this venue into a classy and high-energy destination designed for the affluent Gold Coast crowd.
The Dining Hall is the heart of The Benowa, a spacious area that spills out onto the deck with stunning water views; the Bar is an expansive area flowing onto the deck with taps pouring ice cold beer; The Deck is where the great outdoors truly comes alive, offering a sprawling space perfect for soaking up the Sunshine Coast air.
We are looking for someone who lives and breathes hospitality, leads from the front, and brings locals together by creating pub experiences they love.
The Venue:
The Benowa Tavern is your modern, riverside local. A space designed for easy afternoons, lively nights, and every moment in between. Inspired by the natural rhythm of the river beside us, we’re a place where the community comes together to unwind and settle in. Whether you’re rolling in after a long day or meeting the crew for a night out, you’re always in the right place.
