The newest pub in town was built at Tinana in 2002 in an airy style with timbered verandahs.
The first hotels south of the Mary River crossing sprung up when the Gympie gold rush started in 1867, catering for fortuneseekers trudging or riding south from Maryborough.
Among the early hotels were the Cornstalk, the first Tinana at Teddington Road, the Blue Bell, the
Five Mile, Black Horse and Owanyilla.
The current Riverview is the only pub remaining in Tinana from the 19th Century. Most of the others closed or were moved when the railway line was built to bring Gympie gold to Maryborough and train travel was preferred to the long road journey.
