The speakeasy-inspired underground haven of The Walrus Club can be found hidden underneath Brisbane institution The Regatta Hotel. With a Prohibition-era look and feel, the stealth venue is always amply stocked with a broad range of rare spirits – with a sharp focus on specialty rum.

Its creative cocktail menu features original sips like The Reverend 432 (Plantation Barbados 5yo, Stiggins pineapple rum, Supasawa citric acid, cinnamon syrup and orange bitters, and torched pineapple) and the Apple Crumble Blazer (Sailor Jerry ‘Savage Apple’ rum, Frangelico, Plantation O.F.T.D. rum, lemon juice, sugar and cream).

Meanwhile, the kitchen is dishing out a mini menu of eats including bar room staples like pork rinds, stuffed meatballs, chicken wings and a gloriously generous mezze board. With its most recent upgrade, The Walrus Club is home to a stage and state-of-the-art sound system that lets them host an enhanced entertainment offering of music, comedy and more.
