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!

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.
