About us

We’re Tom & Lisa, locals to Healesville and the owners of the Grand Hotel.

We're a family-run pub and are fully involved in the business. We genuinely care about our team, their job satisfaction and creating a workplace where people actually enjoy coming to work.

Our Head Chef, Dan, is an absolute legend, and we can pretty much guarantee your days won't be boring. 😉
