“Had the Pork belly burnt ends and they were absolutely amazing. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to get back there.”
“What a fantastic location! Got to experience some of the ‘low n slow’ menu-taco Tuesday.
Pool in the outdoor area-can you ask for much more?
Happy hour from 5pm.
Very happy, hope to come back one day.”
“We stayed for 2 nights in the caravan park behind the tavern. $12 per night, an unpowered sight, and $ 40 for power. The food at the tavern was excellent, and the service was great. Would recommend this place to everyone.”

Trivia Night Tuesday from 6.30pm.
We are proud to bring our delicious Darwin River Lager to the Tavern. The NT climate lends itself to easy-to-drink lager style beers and ours delivers full flavour freshness in spades.
The local legends at Beaver Brewery have brewed this to perfection. It’s made right here in Darwin, so it’s not trucked in from interstate like the other brands.
Damian, a Darwin River local, designed our logo for the beer. He’s quite a handy sketch artist who while at the tavern one evening, flipped over a beer coaster, grabbed a pencil and sketched up the design.
Enjoy this full strength lager responsibly and thanks for supporting local!
The Gateway to Litchfield Park & Cox Peninsula
Strategically located, we are a perfect base for your visit to the Top End. Berry Springs Nature
Reserve, Litchfield National Park, Cox Peninsula and all its wonderful attractions are close by,

If you are needing some local knowledge of the area, drop by and we will be happy to share
our locals secrets! The back road to Litchfield National Park is now bitumised making the trip
more enjoyable to one of the Territory’s natural icons.
After a big day out exploring, why not drop by our tavern to enjoy our traditional pub food,
it’s all made by our qualified chefs who really take pride in their food and have a passion for
providing our guests with a beautiful territory experience.
