Stawell Town Hall Lounge Bar

22/08/2026

Regrettably we had to cancel this much anticipated gig due to our unforeseen and heartbreaking closure…if you know of any opportunities to book this class act, please reach out to Glenn Kelly 🥹

Glenn has been incredibly gracious and understanding, as the original date we had him booked was also cancelled due to the liquor licence pending 🧡

We are now available for Saturday 5th September if anyone interested.
Would like to apologise to those who enquired about that date due to unforeseen circumstances our previous booking has regrettably cancelled.

We will be open on Wednesday night for a special event for the local business community 😊

‘Business After Hours’, hosted by Northern Grampians Shire Council, is an informal gathering where business operators (and their team!) can meet their local peers to simply talk, share and learn together.

It’s also the perfect time to learn about being part of the rejuvenated StawellBiz, which is a volunteer group with a focus on strengthening local trade - collectively.

Come along for a casual chat and see what you think!

It starts at 5.30pm, so come straight after work and we will have the bar open and the coffee machine ready!

To our community, regulars, and friends,

We are reaching out today to share some news.

Our time in this current space is coming to an end, and our final day of trade will be next Saturday, 22 August.

While we were hopeful to anchor our roots here permanently after trading here for the past five months, we were ultimately unable to secure a long-term lease agreement that aligned with the values of our business.

While it is tough to walk away from this physical space after five months of hard work, we are taking some major learnings with us.

When we opened this venue, the reason we set it up was to bring a vibrant bar culture, an interesting wine and gin list, and live music to Stawell.

Ironically, what took off completely over these past five months was the specialty coffee and homemade cakes—something that was never originally part of our core picture.

Stawell certainly loves its good coffee, but building a true local culture around boutique evening drinks and a live music scene is clearly a much slower process.

To our incredible regulars who truly supported us over these last five months—the ones who came in once or twice a day for their daily brew, the groups who filled our tables, and those who dropped in on their own for a quiet drink and a chat—thank you.

Your presence breathed life into this space, and your loyal support has meant the world to us.

Please come down over the coming week, grab a coffee, or share a final afternoon glass of wine with us to help us close out this chapter before we turn off the lights next Saturday.

With gratitude, Beth & the Team
