your local,

heritage pub.

livelier than ever.

if these walls could talk, they’d roar! We’re the pub that’s seen it all. In the 1880s, we were a Victorian
brewery. In the 1980s, a live music venue. Now, we’re simply North Adelaide’s best spot for top-
notch food and drink, functions without a hitch and sumptuous wine tastings. Our focus is on serving
hospitality with pride, whether you’re on the terrace, at the bar, in the beer garden or the restaurant.
Though our days of robberies and rock stars may be behind us, this lion is far from tame.

Feast like a lion
