About Farmers Arms Creswick

A classic country pub pairing in-house butchery with cold craft beers, live weekend tunes, and a massive leafy beer garden. Settle in after tackling the Creswick mountain bike trails or take a breather mid-road trip. The kitchen turns out wagyu eye fillet charred medium rare, braised beef ragu over linguine, and succulent parmas with crunch-crusted chips. You can grab a flat white in the corner cafe, rack up a game of billiards by the sports screens, or find a leather couch under the crooked wall frames. Diners praise the tender beef ribs that slide straight off the bone alongside a crisp local pale ale.

  • In-House Butchery: Locally sourced cuts including wagyu eye fillet and porterhouse prepped on-site.
  • Multi-Zoned Layout: Features a dining bistro, sports bar with pool table, corner cafe nook, and open beer garden.
  • Hearty Pub Classics: Tender beef ragu linguine, falling-off-the-bone ribs, and crispy parmigiana paired with regional tap beers.
