Welcome To The Balaclava Hotel
A Local Favourite Just Outside Of Cairns
Serving Families, Friends, Locals And Visitors For Years
Sitting on Mulgrave Road, the Balaclava Hotel is your gateway to the coast of Cairns and the best of north Queensland.
We're the perfect place for families to meet for an overdue long lunch, for mates to catch up over a beer and to watch the game, to celebrate a milestone birthday or special event, and for visitors to stay in affordable accommodation when venturing up the coast.
Inspired by our local surroundings and producers, we believe in sourcing locally and sustainably. Our Graziers Steakhouse has something for everyone, with a focus on delivering perfectly cooked prime steaks and delicious menu options.
Select your cut and have it char-grilled by our Graziers trained master chefs. Our ingredients are sourced fresh from local producers to ensure we put the very best of north Queensland on your place. Kids are well and truly covered with a dedicated play area, and a menu with all the kid-friendly favourites.
If it's a drink you're after, look no further than our Sports Bar. It’s the perfect place in Earlville to sip a brew and relax in one of our lounges, with sport broadcasting across a number of large TV screens.
Choose one of our beers on tap, or take a look at our spirits, cider and wine list. For those after a quick bite, we have a refined menu available with pub classics that are suited perfectly to enjoying with mates.
Our accommodation is the perfect place for those travelling north: a budget conscious, modern and comfortable option when exploring the best of Cairns.
