Armed thieves have used a baseball bat and machete to threaten staff during a robbery in Brisbane.

At about 9.50pm (AEST) on Monday two men entered a hotel on Toohey Road in Salisbury and demanded staff members hand over money.

Police say the staff were threatened with a baseball bat and a machete as they were forced to hand over a sum of cash from the bar and gaming areas. No one was injured.

The second man is described as being about 190cm tall with a dark complexion and a solid build. He was wearing a black Adidas tracksuit top with white stripes on the sleeves, a black balaclava and brown shoes.
