About Wilsonton Hotel

The Wilsonton Hotel is a local pub on Richmond Drive in Wilsonton, on Toowoomba's western side near the shopping centre and the airport. It runs a family bistro, a sports bar with big screens and TAB, and a block of motel rooms for anyone who wants to stay the night. Functions centre on the deck, an enclosed and heated area that adjoins the bistro. It seats 70 or holds 100 standing, and bookings start at 40 guests. Room hire is $150 and takes care of the table setting, tablecloths, napkins, balloons and the clean-up afterwards. For a smaller or more casual night, the landing inside the sports bar is a semi-private corner with a free pool table and air conditioning. It suits up to 50 people, the hire is $50, and the pub steers 18th and 21st birthdays to this space. The kitchen offers alternate-drop set menus from $27 per person for one course, with premium versions and two- and three-course options, for groups of 30 or more. Roast and hot buffets at $30 and $45 per person cater for 40 or more, and platters from $100 run from sandwiches and sliders to antipasto and fruit. Drinks can go on an open tab settled at the end, or on a limited tab with a set dollar amount and a chosen drinks list. Audio with a microphone, a TV, and a tea and coffee station are each $25 extra. Tentative bookings are held for 14 days, and paying the room hire confirms the date.

Frequently asked questions

How many guests can the deck hold?

The deck seats 70 or takes 100 guests standing, with a minimum of 40. The sports bar landing suits groups of up to 50.

What does the room hire include?

Deck hire is $150 and covers table settings, tablecloths, napkins, balloons and clean-up. The landing is $50 with the same inclusions. A further $200 deposit applies to the deck and is refunded once the minimum guest numbers are met.

Can we hold an 18th or 21st here?

Yes, but the venue must be told it is an 18th or 21st when booking. A security guard may be needed for the night at $50 an hour per guard, and the sports bar landing is the space the pub suggests for these parties.

Can we bring our own cake or drinks?

Cakes are welcome, with cakeage options starting with a $25 cut-and-platter service. Outside food and drinks are not allowed, and any alcohol brought in as a gift is held by staff until you leave.

How late can a function run?

The hotel is open until 4am, but noise in the outdoor area has to stop at 10pm. After that the party can carry on inside the bar.
