A significant reboot for a Geelong classic, tracing its roots back to the 1840’s. The brief was to revive the pub back to its former splendour, with a heavy dose of warm and character rich cabin vibes, all the while injecting it with a completely fresh look and feel.

  • Collaborating with our friends at Studio Co & Co who delivered a rich variety of materiality and texture, the build included a brand new kitchen and bar, timber wainscoting throughout, a tiled backbar, leather upholstered banquettes, paisley carpets and a freestanding fireplace in the large dining room.
