Now Open: Sat Opposite Southern Cross Station, Quarterhouse Boasts Three Levels of Elevated Pub Cuisine and Game-Day Fun
Catch the game on massive screens, sip cocktails on the rooftop, or stroll to the match from this new multi-level CBD pub.
Making a grand entrance opposite Southern Cross Station, Quarterhouse could be your new go-to destination for after-work drinks and a pre-match feed. Catering for up to 1,400 patrons across three expansive levels, the venue's variety of spaces makes it a stellar spot for corporate gatherings and primetime footy fever. Plus, with Marvel Stadium just a short stroll away, getting pumped before the game or commiserating afterwards is a breeze.
On the ground floor in the Public Bar, punters will encounter a classic, easygoing pub atmosphere. Kick back with live sports on big screens, including a mammoth four-metre-wide centrepiece, or challenge your pals by racking up some pool. There are comfy banquettes that are perfect for chilling out, or you can also soak up the sun with street-side dining and drinks.
The menu spans European-inspired gastropub cuisine, with smaller dishes like fried squid paired with pickled fennel, lemon and aioli complemented by pub favourites like classic chicken parma or the Quarterhouse Burger, featuring bacon, blue cheese mayo, pickled onions and more. Meanwhile, juicy steaks served with skin-on fries, salad, umami butter and jus gras or peppercorn sauce are bound to hit the mark.
Upstairs on level one, The Hall is where celebrations of all stripes, from birthdays to corporate events, take over. Decked out with its own private bar and a sunlit wrap-around terrace graced with greenery, your next special event will benefit from the elevated ambience. Versatile in design, this reserved space has enough capacity for 240 guests.
Then, perched atop Quarterhouse, The Rooftop switches up the mood once again, with a laidback vibe ideal for cocktails in the sun. Rising above the hum of Collins Street, this vantage point looks across the elevated expanse of Sky Park. Up here, the menu is made for sharing, with a selection of woodfired pizzas offered alongside options like wagyu beef skewers with a pepperberry jus gras and roast shallots.
When the footy isn't taking over Quarterhouse, a weekly entertainment lineup keeps the mood upbeat. Get down on Mondays for free all-day pool in the Public Bar, or head along on Thursdays for live acoustic performances from 5pm. The vibe picks up when the weekend arrives, with Fridays seeing Sunset Sips and DJs bringing the party to the rooftop. Then, Sunday afternoon welcomes casual trivia from 3pm. With Quarterhouse's arrival, your next game day or weeknight gathering is sorted.
Quarterhouse is now open Sunday–Wednesday from 11.30am–11pm, Thursday from 11.30am–12am and Saturday–Sunday from 11.30am–1am at 693 Collins Street, Docklands. Head to the website for more information.
