Grainery Lane

A one-of-a-kind saloon-style cocktail bar bringing back the glitz and glamour of the city’s goldrush era.

Our Story

Named after the historic lane that was once a bustling centre for the city’s grain trade with warehouses lining the street. Grainery Lane Distillery is located in one of these warehouses and produces spirits made from local grain, herbs, berries and botanicals.

The one-of-a-kind saloon-style bar found and sourced from half-way around the world will bring back the glitz and glamour of the city’s goldrush era – think Peaky Blinders meets The Great Gatsby – with an original bar spanning an entire wall, backdropped by sparkling chandeliers, and furniture reminiscent of the 1880s.

The story through historic Ballarat continues with a secret speakeasy at the back of the building. With a strict invite-only policy, the hidden 40-seat bar lies behind a secret wall and reflect the early 1920s prohibition era.

Proudly recognised as the best restaurant in Ballarat, and home to the city’s finest cocktails and wine list. From old-fashioned favourites to innovative signature creations, our extensive food and beverage menus are designed to cater for everyone — with gluten-friendly, vegan, and vegetarian options available.

Grainery Lane offers personalised tasting sessions and tours for small and larger groups. A great experience for a team building exercise or pre-dinner entertainment.
