The corner of Elizabeth and George Streets is home to one of Brisbane’s oldest hospitality sites.
Now home to Irish Murphy’s, the site has hosted a pub since 1865.
Originally known as the Dunmore Arms, the building was re-designed in 1887 and opened as the Treasury Hotel in 1888. The pub traded as the Treasury for over a century before again being remodelled and re-opened as Irish Murphy’s In October 1999.
Today, Irish Murphy’s stands as a beloved cornerstone of Brisbane’s Irish pub scene. It seamlessly blends modern hospitality with old-world charm, featuring exposed brick, rich timber beams, and historic basement stonework. The establishment is well-known for pouring hearty pints of Guinness, serving comforting pub classics, and hosting regular live music.
As one of the central gathering spots in the CBD, the venue preserves the historic legacy of the 1880s architecture while serving as a vibrant hub for both locals and travellers. You can view the menu, find location details, and book a table by visiting Irish Murphy’s Brisbane on Queensland.com
