About Casey Jones

Casey Jones is a pub on Kingsland Parade in Casey, in Canberra's north. It runs a sports bar with ten large screens and a projector, a beer garden, a dining room and an upstairs bar used for functions, with plenty of free parking on site. The Platform Bar is the main function space, set upstairs with its own private bar and bathroom. It holds up to 60 guests for a stand-up event, and the four taps up there can be filled with your choice from the 18 beers poured downstairs. The indoor deck sits just off the main room, so a group of up to 40 can enjoy the live music and sport without being in the thick of the crowd. The dining room seats groups of up to 30 for lunch or dinner, and there is an outdoor area where dogs are welcome. The functions menu is built around platters: wings and popcorn chicken, sliders, skewers, party pies, sausage rolls, pizzas, salads and desserts such as pavlova and tiramisu. Smaller groups can simply order from the main menu on the night. Drinks can run on a bar tab with a limit and drinks list you choose, or guests can buy their own at the bar. Cocktail jugs are available for the tables and a slushie machine can be added for something different. An events coordinator follows up each enquiry to confirm the area, numbers and menu. The pub does not host 18th birthdays.

Had the rib eye and it was cooked to perfection. Chips were spot on as well. I even liked the brussel sprouts, but don't tell the family that I like it here.
