Longtime Mareeba publican pours last drinks
AFTER 13 years as a well-known Mareeba publican, Brain Callow has stepped down as the Graham Hotel’s manager, passing the reigns to Shaun Scott.
Starting out in the pub game at a young age, Brian has spent the past decade creating a community-minded venue for everyone to enjoy.
Now, he will be looking for a change in career but thanked everyone who had supported him during his time as a publican.
“Thank you to everyone who has supported me in Mareeba, we all had a going away party and lots of people attended,” he said.
“The support has been amazing, and I just hope I was worth all of that support.”
Shaun will now step up as the new publican, with many fresh new ideas to make the Graham a better venue.
“This pub is really back to basics and the locals love it ... but at this point in time we are just cleaning up around the outside and inside,” he said.
“We want to improve the signage and clean up the tiles at the front. We also want to keep the community spirit that Brian created alive.”
