Written By Cristy Houghton

1. Harry’s Restaurant, Longreach

Offering a contemporary Australian menu, Harry’s dishes are made from fresh seasonal produce and are paired expertly with their delicious wines. Beautifully presented plates, you will not be disappointed with items on the menu such as barramundi, pork belly, scotch fillet and an array of delectable entrees.

2. Starlight Cruise, Longreach

Outback Pioneers’ sunset cruise was the original Thomson River Cruise and is still the favourite with its historic ‘Thomson Belle’ paddlewheeler and traditional riverbank entertainment, including a stockmen’s dinner around the campfire.

3. Smithy’s Outback Dinner and Show, Longreach

A night not to be missed, Smithy’s Outback dinner and show provides nibbles and a 2-course meal along with amazing performers and storytellers. Their camp oven inspired modern cuisine will delight your tastebuds and can be enjoyed with a variety of wines and cold beers at their cash bar.
