It is the great Aussie debate and our national pub+ database of one million people have had their say: the Chicken Parmigiana is officially the king of the counter meal at ALH Hotels.
After hitting a massive milestone of one million members just 18 months after launch, hospitality rewards platform pub+ has tracked exactly what Australians are eating and drinking across more than 350 local ALH Hotels.
While food trends come and go, the data proves that Aussies are traditionalists at heart. The "Top 5" pub+ member dishes and drinks reveal a nation obsessed with the classics:
Top 5 Member Dishes
- Chicken Parmigiana
- Chicken Schnitzel
- Steak
- Steak Sandwich
- Southern Fried Chicken Burger
Top 5 Member Drinks (by individual serves)
1. Great Northern Super Crisp 3.5%
2. Carlton Draught
3. VB
4. Great Northern Original
5. XXXX
To celebrate the one-million-member milestone, pub+ is launching a life-changing promotion, giving one lucky member the chance to play for $1,000,000.
From now until 12 April 2026, any member who scans their app or orders via pub+ at a participating venue (including icons like Melbourne’s Young & Jackson or Brisbane’s Breakfast Creek Hotel) receives an entry. On 14 April, one person will be chosen for a high-stakes, in-venue game to determine if they walk away as Australia’s newest millionaire.
"Reaching one million members in under two years shows that the 'local' is more important to Aussies than ever," said an ALH spokesperson. "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, and now they’re getting rewarded for it."
The promotion is open to all active pub+ members aged 18 and over. New members can join instantly by downloading the app to enter.
