Why it's worth checking out
Felons Barrel Hall brings beer, food and entertainment together at 5 Boundary Street in New Farm, Brisbane. The venue is built around barrel-aged beer, with more than 20,000 litres held in red wine, chardonnay and whisky barrels. Some beers are conditioned for up to 32 months, giving the brewery’s range a distinctive focus on oak and maturation.
The kitchen takes inspiration from the streets of Thailand, serving a bright, fresh menu designed for sharing over a round of barrel-aged beers. Beyond dining, the hall is a lively setting for Brisbane audiences, with regular live music, DJs, ticketed gigs and other events listed through its programme. The venue also screens major sporting fixtures live and loud, including football and State of Origin matches, making it suited to groups looking for more than a quiet drink. With walk-ins welcomed and bookings available, Felons Barrel Hall works for casual meals, group gatherings, music fans and sports supporters seeking an energetic night out in New Farm.
