Good Mates,
Cold Brews,
Top Views
Welcome to The Farview Tavern — a true country gem perched on top of the hill at Farleigh, just 11km from the Mackay CBD. Since opening in 1981, Farview has become a favourite spot for locals, travellers, families, and workers who want great food, cold drinks and one of the best views in the region.
Up here, life slows down a little. You can feel the breeze roll across the valley, watch the colours shift over Black Mountain and take in the historic Farleigh Mill standing proudly in the distance. Whether you’re stopping in for a meal, catching up with mates, or staying overnight, you’ll feel right at home.
