A new whisky and ale bar has opened its doors in Healesville, offering a menu rich with local wines, beers and the best drops of whisky from Victoria and across the globe.
Cavanagh’s Whisky and Alehouse is an intimate spot full of charm, with a welcoming and warm interior nodding to local history and Healesville’s rustic charm.
It’s the perfect place for visitors and locals to sit back and enjoy a whisky or two, away from the hustle and bustle of bigger establishments.
Cheese and meat sharing boards and a small cocktail list are also on the menu that’s looking to show off the best of the Yarra Valley all in one spot.
The bar is owned and operated by married couple Brendan and Kate who say they were looking to fill a gap in the market, with no other small whisky or wine bar style venues locally.
“Healesville has nearly everything covered when it comes to heading out and socializing over a delicious beverage, unfortunately there is no small Whisky or Wine Bar style venue,” they said.
After recently opening in September, the couple say it’s been their biggest achievement and look forward to seeing you this spring.
“We have just opened and would love to hear everyone’s feedback on what they would like to see join our family of whiskies and ales,” they said.
Current venue capacity at the 207 Maroondah Highway, Healesville venue is 20 people at a time however, that’s expected to expand soon.
