Longrain
Welcome to Longrain
Longrain, led by Scott Pickett, is a lively, vibrant restaurant, serving modern Thai cuisine. The dining room set in an expansive converted horse stable from the 1900s buzzes with energy. Our cuisine is a modern take on Thai food, blending traditional Thai recipes with a contemporary twist, incorporating fresh local Australian ingredients and Southeast Asian influences. Inspired by a relaxed, communal eating philosophy, the menu is made up of shared dishes to be enjoyed on communal dining tables – banquet style. Complementing the fresh, punchy signature dishes, Longrain offers an abundance of Thai-inspired cocktails.
Visit us before or after your theatre show, and head upstairs to Longsong from Thursday–Saturday to add a cocktail or two to your experience!
Private Events
Designed with events in mind, our expansive venue caters for weddings, canapé parties, intimate dinners or any other occasion worth celebrating. Longrain and Longsong bar has several versatile spaces and seats up to 106 or caters for up to 200 standing guests.
Pre-Theatre bookings
For those wanting a quick bite before a show, look no further! We offer 75 minute a la carte bookings from 5:30pm Monday–Thursday and 5pm Friday–Sunday to make sure you are wined and dined before you hit the theatre! Groups of up to 20 are welcomed to dine on our a la carte menu. Please select the 'Pre-theatre Special' option at the time of booking.
Pinto Express Lunch
Enjoy our Pinto (ปิ่นโต)—an express Friday lunch served in a traditional stacked Thai lunch container. Uncover it layer by layer: fragrant rice, your choice of two street-food-inspired dishes, and optional add-ons including a fried egg and khanom sai sai—a classic Thai dessert of sweet coconut and palm sugar steamed in banana leaf.
Longsong is the penthouse to Longrain; the upper level. Perfect for pre-dinner drinks or for a lighter meal, it sits nicely in that space between a restaurant and a late-night bar. You don’t have to eat – but you’d be missing out. The food is inspired by the flavours of downstairs and designed to pair with drinks. There are DJs spinning vinyl from Thursday–Saturday nights, a Thai-inspired cocktail list, local wines, craft beers on tap – it's a casual place to meet the crew until late into the night — no reservations required but dinner bookings are welcomed. Please reach out if you are curious about our venue and would like to know more.
