Nanango, QLD 4615

Nanango Commercial Hotel is a rare combination of history, cash flow and untapped potential. Established in 1894 and prominently positioned in the heart of Nanango, this iconic country pub has evolved into a high‑performing, multi‑income hospitality asset while retaining the authentic character that locals and travellers love. It is located approximately two hours from Brisbane with unmatched highway exposure, capturing local, regional and transient trade.

The hotel delivers approximately $90,000–$100,000 per week in turnover, underpinned by a strong food base, busy bar trade and solid liquor retail business. The extended main bar, dining room and covered courtyard create multiple zones for everyday trade, functions and events. A walk‑in liquor store and drive‑through bottleshop add reliable retail revenue, giving the business a robust and diversified income profile.

On the accommodation and residential side, the property offers seven pub‑style guest rooms, large current manager’s quarters with office and a three‑bedroom residence, all on site. A generous car park and adjacent land provide both convenience for patrons and a genuine development angle, including the opportunity to add short‑term donga‑style accommodation along the fence line (subject to approvals).

Recently voted Best Live Music Venue in the district, the hotel is firmly embedded in the local community and has become a go‑to destination for entertainment, meals and social gatherings. The business is fully staffed and currently operated by a hands‑on husband‑and‑wife team, making this an ideal acquisition for an owner‑operator couple or family seeking a profitable lifestyle asset they can grow.

IMPROVEMENTS, ACCOMMODATION AND LAND
-Historic hotel building with traditional façade and strong street presence
Extended main bar, dining room and covered courtyard for flexible trading
-Commercial kitchen supporting the strong food component of the business
-Seven pub‑style accommodation rooms for short‑stay guests
-Large current manager’s quarters with office for on‑site oversight of the business
-Additional three‑bedroom residence, ideal for a family operator or senior staff
-Large car park providing ample on‑site parking for patrons, events and travellers
-Adjacent land with clear potential for additional development, including short‑term donga accommodation along the fence line (STCA)

The physical layout and landholding support both current trade and future upside, making this more than just a bar and bistro – it is a genuine hospitality platform with development options.

UPSIDE AND GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES
A new owner has several clear levers to take an already successful hotel to the next level:
-Gaming introduction – subject to licensing and approvals, gaming machines could add a new, high‑margin income stream.
-Accommodation expansion – utilise the car park/adjacent land for additional rooms or donga‑style accommodation to capture more transient, contractor and tourist trade (STCA).
-Events and entertainment – build further on the live music reputation with ticketed events, festivals and special experience nights.
-Food and beverage optimisation – refine the menu, introduce themed nights, and tighten cost of goods to further leverage the strong food base.
-Marketing and digital presence – strengthen online visibility, booking channels and social media to attract a wider audience.
-With strong foundations already in place, these initiatives are about amplification rather than rescue.

IDEAL BUYER
Nanango Commercial Hotel is perfectly suited to:
-An experienced hotelier looking to add a strong regional performer to their portfolio
-A husband‑and‑wife team seeking a profitable, hands‑on lifestyle business
-A family operator wanting to live on site and build long‑term equity in a freehold asset
-An investor with hospitality management in place, interested in future development and gaming upside
-The combination of real property, proven income and multiple value‑add angles is hard to replicate at this price point.
