Emerging players

• The Crafty Squire: The Crafty Squire is an independent craft beer bar and restaurant in Brisbane, Queensland. Comparable to Spotted Dog Tavern as a small-format Queensland venue specializing in craft beer and pub food, and competing for regional Queensland diners and drinkers.

Regional players

Broad incumbents

• ALH Group (part of Endeavour Group): ALH Group operates the largest portfolio of Australian hotels, pubs, and taverns (around 330 venues) and is now part of Endeavour Group.

Comparable to Spotted Dog Tavern as a multi-venue operator of neighborhood-style pubs and bars, though focused on higher-density metro markets rather than regional Queensland.
