• Australian • Lancefield

Booked 9 times today

Lost Watering Hole, The Lancefield Brewery was born from a tiny idea two mates from Lancefield had one day whilst having a beer… “Let’s open a brewery!” They never expected that one day, several years later, Lost Watering Hole, The Lancefield Brewery would become the special place it is today. It all began in 1888, when Henry Lindsay bought the former flour mill in Lancefield and converted it into a brewery (God bless him…). Lindsay trademarked the name ‘The Trent Brewery’ and began producing both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. In the years that followed, the brewery changed hands many times, continuing to trade until early 1898, when it seems both the building and equipment were put up for auction, although it did not find a buyer. Sadly, a mysterious fire gutted the building the night after the auction, signalling its closure. Gladly, our brewery is lost no more… Today, we are proud to welcome you and your friends to Lancefield’s brewery, Lost Watering Hole.

Our group of 13 had an outstanding night. We had a Spanish guest of honour join us and he was blown away with the genuine Spanish menu and quality of the cuisine. An added bonus was his conversation with the owner and staff who spoke fluent Spanish. Our group also had diverse dietary requirements from vegetarian to gluten free. Nothing was a problem for the venue and they provided a number of options to make sure all enjoyed a quality meal. Highly recommend this venue as one the best dining experiences in Ballarat (and beyond).
