Took this outside the hotel when I was there, had other photos of the hotel to.was visiting here 2 weeks ago stopped to have lunch and look around they have a cafe on site which has great meals. Few old buildings in town .the other 2 pictures are the old building across the street.

Honestly! Loved everyone. Cliff is doing amazing job running the venue. Rooftop is the place I would be anytime of the day.

5 Star Review by Peter Duncan

Great country pub. Good food friendly staff. Pub was impacted by recent floods but open for business as usual. Free camping across the road

4 Star Review by Leigh Forsyth

Locals there in force on Saturday evening supporting following the flood. Good service, good vibe. Typical rural community spirit.

4 Star Review by Christopher Pearson

The centre of a vibrant community called Gunning. The hotel is located on the centre of town on what was the old Hume Highway. Offers an excellent bistro that used to be the local Chinese restaurant. The meals can be taken in the bar or lounge areas and offer a hearty meal at a reasonable price. Well patronised by the locals and tourists. Has rooms available or you can stay in the Gunning Motel just a short walk down the street. A number of other cafe's offering a choice for visitors to the area. Gunning has seen a growth in new homes in the recent 5+ years so is not a dying town. Has a free swimming pool across the road from the hotel. Gunning showground is also welcoming to travellers who are self contained in a caravan or mobile home. No longer offers rooms. But Gunning Motel just a short walk
