Reviews
"Had a great time here for lunch. Nice atmosphere overlooking the rail station, very little passing traffic and pleasant tree lined outlook. Food was good, very tasty burger (real meat pattie with the right mix of seasoning)."
"Very poor quality in the ingredients they use, lucky me I started first with a dessert; shaved ice. It taste to pure strawberry jam with water. I couldn’t finish and left without order my lunch. Definitely no worth it the food but I have to say the staff is adorable."
"Kuranda itself didn't excite us too much. So, with some time to kill before our train ride back down the hill, we thought we would have lunch and a couple of bevies before we had to leave. Much to our disappointment, I can only say it was very average pub food. Then to our surprise they called last drinks at 2:15pm and it closed at 2:30pm. Unheard in other parts of Australia. Very disappointed. The best part was the windows."
"Fantastic location to visit after the Skyrail. Indoor and semi-outdoor options of dining. Vast selection of food and the specials were great also. We took advantage of the Karage Chicken and Salad special which was delicious and fresh tasting. If you like Ginger Beer you have to take the opportunity to taste the alcohol based Ulysses Ginger Beer. Kuranda Hotel's own brew which is green in colour - it was awesome. Friendly service and despite it being extremely busy and a verbal warning that there may be a delay in food to table - we did not wait long at all."
"A great spot for lunch and to escape the heat. As many do after traveling on the Kuranda Scenic Rail, we decided to grab some lunch at the iconic Kuranda Hotel. It was busy when we arrived, but we were afforded a large table to help with the kids which was a relief. We ordered drinks and food which was wonderful. The chicken was crispy and crunchy but still tender and juicy. The staff here were kind, engaging and appreciative of us having a baby and offered a spot near the aircon to assist him with the heat when he wouldn't settle. Our time here was refreshing and filling, certainly a great lunch with fantastic staff and service."
