About The Fairfield
The Fairfield is a local hotel at 78 Abbott Street in Oonoonba, Townsville. It runs as an all-day pub with a bistro, a sports bar, a gaming lounge and a drive-through bottle shop. Functions can be held inside or out in the beer garden, and together these spaces take up to 80 guests. The layouts can be rearranged to suit the event, from a casual birthday catch-up to a more formal work function. The beer garden sits under a high roof with long timber tables and bar stools, so it works for a stand-up crowd as well as seated groups. Indoors, the dining room has booth seating, banquettes and a long bar with a wall of beer taps. The kitchen runs lunch and dinner seven days, with pub favourites such as steaks, schnitzels, burgers, seafood and woodfired pizzas. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free choices are marked on the menu, and for functions the team puts together tailored menus. Drinks packages are offered alongside the food, and the bar pours a wide range of beers on tap, wines and spirits. The sports bar has large screens for racing and live sport if guests want to catch a game. To plan a function, hosts contact the venue team with their date and numbers, and the team suggests the right space and packages. A courtesy bus can also be booked for pub customers.
