Eat. Drink. Discover.

  • Tobias grabbing a slice of pizza

From pizza and pretzels to beers inspired by brewing traditions from around the world, we enjoy doing things properly, and doing them our own way.

Beer brewed here, alongside wines and spirits from around our region, plus plenty of choices when beer isn’t your thing.

We make what we can ourselves, choose the rest with purpose, and serve the things we genuinely enjoy. Come hungry, bring your curiosity and discover what’s growing, cooking and brewing at Cubby Haus.

Worth the little detour

You found us! We’re one of those places to eat and drink in Ballarat that’s a little off the beaten track. Around 5km south of the CBD, away from the bustle, with plenty of parking.

Once you’re here, there’s no hurry.

At your own pace

Relax and enjoy your visit your way. Play something, explore the vinyl, have a chat or a tour or do absolutely none of those things. It’s really up to you.

There’s no scheduled fun required. Just good food, interesting drinks and somewhere comfortable to spend some time.

This was a great find. Cubby Haus is a small brewery with a big range of beers on tap. They are located in a warehouse with a few outdoor tables to catch some sunshine. There’s also a full food menu of pizzas and things.

Amazing vibes, the fennel and pork pizza was pretty good. My partner came for the oatmeal stout (he says 4/5) and I got the Brain Freeze (also 4/5). The owner pretty much stayed back past when he wanted to close to accommodate us. Free pinball machine was also fun <3

Truly a hidden gem!! Malcom has made the Cubby Haus Brewing a must visit. We enjoyed a delicious perfectly balanced warm, crunchy and fluffy pretzel, chips and an amazing pizza. All accompanied by fantastic beverages of course. So cozy and inviting, with an excellent vinyl collection.
