Crossroads Hotel

Crossroads Hotel, Collingullie

Out on the Sturt Highway, about 25km west of Wagga Wagga, sits the Crossroads Hotel — better known to locals as "The Gullie Pub." This is the kind of country pub that does exactly what a country pub should do: cold beer, honest meals, and a genuine welcome for travellers and their dogs.

The Vibe

Rated 4.4 stars across 100+ Google reviews, the Crossroads has earned its reputation as a proper road-trip stop. It's relaxed, unpretentious, and popular with caravanners taking advantage of the free camping. The publican runs a tight ship, and the atmosphere is the sort where strangers become mates over a pint. Think wooden floors, friendly chatter, and the reassuring smell of a mixed grill working away in the kitchen.

Pet Policy

Dogs are welcome in the front bar and the outdoor courtyard seating area. They are NOT permitted in the main indoor dining room — so plan your visit around a courtyard or front bar table if you've got your dog with you. Staff are accommodating as long as you respect the boundary.

What to Expect

• Classic pub menu: pizzas, burgers, steaks, and their renowned mixed grill

• Cold beer on tap and a solid wine list

• Free parking right out the front

• Free camping for caravans — a big drawcard for travellers

Good to Know

If you're passing through the Riverina with your dog, the Crossroads is an easy and worthwhile stop. The courtyard is the best spot for a meal with your pet — open air, relaxed, and no fuss. Heading into Wagga Wagga itself? Check out Makers Coffee House or The Early Bird Wagga for more dog-friendly options.

Bring a lead, order a pizza, and settle in. That's the Gullie way.
