Dad also had a Puppacino afterward, the dad version of a babycino.</p><p data-block-key="4cn63">The ambience at Michelago General Store is gorgeous – think classic rustic charm – and the staff are the best.

Imagine wearing your NSW Blues jersey all week ahead of the big game, and cooking a BBQ out the back in the bitter cold for all your Blues-supporting mates who’d shown up for The Decider. We bleed Blue over here in Queanbeyan (and Canberra Raiders green too, admittedly) and it ramps the rivalry up five notches.</p><h3 data-block-key="7808h">A main street.</h3><img alt="monaro street" class="richtext-image full-width" height="512" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/monaro_street.width-800.jpg" width="800"><p data-block-key="alt7a">Yes, you have a nominal main street in Canberra, but you can’t walk from shop to shop, cafe to cafe and run into 18,000 people you know in the space of 20 minutes, can you?</p><p data-block-key="62knb">Monaro Street, Queanbeyan, is a beautiful strip of heritage retail buildings dating back to the late 1800s, a few more modern spaces, and several pubs and cafes. It takes about seven minutes to walk end-to-end, and it’s country NSW at its finest.</p><h3 data-block-key="cleuc">More than one decent pub.</h3><img alt="hotel queanbeyan" class="richtext-image full-width" height="506" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/hotel_queanbeyan.width-800.png" width="756"><p data-block-key="cqqit">Within a single kilometre we have the Hotel Queanbeyan, Walsh’s Hotel, Royal Hotel and the Tourist Hotel.

He’s been in the role for almost three years now, attended local primary and high schools and loves the region so much he used to be the head of the Canberra Raiders Army (disclaimer: he’s my younger brother).</p><p data-block-key="amcfn">But every NSW country town has an ‘unofficial mayor’, generally a bloke who can drink everyone under the table and who’s on a first name basis with just about everyone and their 10 kids. In Queanbeyan, that man is Rocky Burnell, a former rugby league star who, now retired, sits on several local fundraising committees and never turns down a party invite.</p><h3 data-block-key="4o0i1">Freehold property.</h3><p data-block-key="7gvne">There’s no paying to borrow land from the government in New South Wales.
