ALH Hotels’ hospitality rewards program pub+ recently released data settling the great Aussie debate: what is Australia’s top pub meal?
Just eighteen months from launch, pub+ has hit the one-million-member mark. Data from the program revealed what meals and drinks Australians are enjoying across 350 participating venues.
Coming in strong at number one in the top five member dishes was chicken parmigiana, suggesting Aussies are still favouring the classics.
This was followed by chicken schnitzel, steak, steak sandwich and a southern fried chicken burger.
Top favourite in the member drinks (by individual serves) was: Great Northern Super Crisp 3.5%, followed by Carlton Draught, VB, Great Northern Original and XXXX.
In celebration of its million-member milestone, pub+ has launched a once-in-a-lifetime promotion.
One fortunate member will be selected for a shot at $1 million.
From now until 12 April 2026, members 18 and over can enter by scanning their app or ordering via pub+ at participating venues, including well-known spots like Brisbane’s Breakfast Creek Hotel and Melbourne’s Young & Jackson.
On 14 April, one entrant will be randomly drawn and invited to take part in a high-stakes, in-venue matching envelopes game for the chance to become Australia’s next millionaire.
“Reaching one million members in under two years shows that the ‘local’ is more important to Aussies than ever,” an ALH spokesperson said.
“We’ve seen that while people want the convenience of an app, they are still coming in for that same classic Parma and cold beer they’ve loved for decades.”
