Named after a historic Ballarat brewery, this restaurant in the historic arts precinct offers a good range of beers and wines and a welcoming environment, with polished concrete floors, timber and brick features and suede banquettes, plus a bluestone bar in the cellar. Ambitious set menus might include succulent seared scallops, garlic snails with stout jelly, blackened beef short ribs or smoky eggplant and feta cannelloni.
