About Yarck Hotel

A welcoming highway stopover along the Maroondah, this country pub delivers serious hearthside comfort far beyond standard road trip fare. Road-trippers heading toward Mount Buller drop in to warm up by the blazing open fire in the bistro, trading fast-food detours for hearty plates of slow-braised lamb shanks, bangers and mash, and chicken parmas. Out back, campers walking over from the town reserve settle into the spacious, dog-friendly beer garden with cold pints and acoustic tunes.

  • Open Fireplace Dining: Indoor bistro tables sit beside a roaring open wood fire, serving comfort plates like lamb shanks and stroganoff during chilly weather.
  • Dog-Friendly Beer Garden: An open outdoor courtyard and beer garden welcomes dogs and families with ample room to stretch out after the road.
  • Campground & Highway Stopover: A convenient meal destination right off Maroondah Highway, steps from the town free campground reserve for travelers and campers.
