IT may be located in the middle of the bush, but the Eagles Nest Bar and Grill is certainly being talked about.

Hundreds of people have left "reviews" on the outback cafe's automatically-generated Facebook page in response to a sign out the front saying "sorry, no Muslims".

The reviews of the cafe, based in Longreach, a town in Central West Queensland, from several months ago start out fairly optimistic, with customers giving the eatery four and five stars out of five for great food and service.

But on Friday this changed when Helen Day posted a one-star review questioning the sign she saw out the front of the cafe.

"Just a bit surprised to see the sign up "Sorry No Muslims" ... what's that about???" she wrote.

The message was written at the bottom of a sandwich board, which also included the words: "2000 years ago Jesus Christ made headlines turning water into wine...the tradition continues...We turn money into beer (Sorry No Muslims)."

The post was picked up by Facebook group Boycott Halal in Australia? No Way and has now been shared hundreds of times.

Since, the internet has joined forces and its Facebook page has been filled with messages of support for the Muslim community, and disgust at the cafe's discriminatory attitude.

Comments on the page range from disgust to pure outrage. Source: Supplied

The Courier Mail has requested comment from the Eagles Nest Bar and Grill, but were yet to respond.
