Restoring the Grand Hotel Monto

Welcome to the Grand. We're restoring the historic Grand Hotel Monto - established 1929 - and bringing this much-loved country pub back to life.
Follow our journey as we work towards cold beers, good food, comfy rooms, local stories, and a place for the whole community to gather again.
Proudly Queensland, built on community. Your local, your pub, your Monto.
