VARNISH ON KING'S TENTH BDAY

We’ve been getting up to some serious WHISKEY business for a DECADE, ya’ll! That’s right, we're turning TEN… yee-hawwww!!

That’s ten whole years of beavers, bacon, whiskey, late nights, epic eats, a whole lot of great times and oh boy, do we have some awesome celebrations planned…

Join us in our rockin’ little basement joint for a whole week of festivities from Monday 3 – Saturday 8 July ’23, including…

 

 

That smell of sizzlin’ bacon … Yeah, you know it 🤤

We’re throwin’ it back to 2013 with some OG Bacon Whiskey flight combos…

Enjoy some good ol’ classic Whiskey with that good-lookin’ bacon for $30 all week before 6pm.

 

 

Did someone say double celebration? We’re celebrating the fourth of July with Woodford Reserve for an all-American Whiskey masterclass with a twist!

 

An OG LEGEND will return to Varnish for an epic night celebrating our birthday… none other than former Varnish bar/venue manager, notoriously loose & all-round good guy, Jamie Passmore 👑🥃

 

Sip and enjoy while Jamie shares his knowledge on the delicious juice and tells tales of his wild and wonderful stories at Varnish over the last decade! Guests score a whiskey sour on arrival, epic Varnish eats and tasters of Woodford Distillers Select, Woodford Double Oak, Woodford Rye and a very special Woodford Masters Collection. 🇺🇸🥃

 

Psst… listen carefully because one lucky reveller will snag a mystery prize at the end!

 

🎟️ Tickets $60+b/f – 5.30pm arrival for a 6pm start. Score tickets HERE! 
Includes a cheeky 20% off if you kick on for dinner!
