A Tradition

The Gunbower Hotel

Situated on a bend in the Murray Valley Hwy, 40 kilometres north-west of Echuca, this unassuming hotel stands in the small Victorian town of Gunbower. Now owed and operated by farmer, butcher and publican, Richard McGillivray, the Gunbower Hotel represents a piece of history and a family tradition. The Gunbower Hotel opened in 1941, boasting it was a “Paradise For Sportsmen” offering hare, rabbit, duck (in season) shooting, cod and perch fishing all within 3 minutes of the door! These days you can enjoy one of the best pub meals in Victoria without having to leave the pub. The Gunbower Hotel is well known for its superb aged, locally grown beef (most of which comes from Richards own property) and great traditional pub food. If you’re looking for great pub atmosphere, fantastic food and a great selection of beer and wines then The Gunbower Hotel is well worth the drive!

“Only a few kilometres from the mighty Murray River sits this humble 1940s pub, home to a knockout steak grown by publican/farmer/butcher Richard McGillivray.” Sun Herald

“Fabulous food”

“Richard McGillivray, a farmer, butcher and publican who takes his beef seriously.” ” Tender, moist, slightly gamey and minerally, they are consistantly good. Richard Cornish

“Well worth the drive”
