A former Italian wedding venue turned failed nightclub is about to become something the world has never seen.
A bar and restaurant that doubles as a pool hall, triples as a karaoke joint, quadruples as an intimate cocktail space and quintuples as an incredible live sports cinema! Yes, quintuplets Tawnies, that’s what we’re talking about. From the executive producers that brought you the smash hit Bucketty’s Brewing Co, we bring you…Chalky’s!
Chalky’s is where you’ll come for a chilled experience with your crew to really connect with one another. It’s comfy, temperature-controlled (because Brooky sure gets steamy), fun and easy.
This is a uniquely epic space, over 600 square Chalky’s metres with high vaulted ceilings, a 3am license and main road exposure. Not just any main road mind you, it’s none other than the well-versed Beaches beating heart arterial of Pittwater Road. No residential neighbours, meaning no shooshers to get shooshing when the late-night decibels surge. And finally, a big format floor plan that allows us infinite creativity in all the ways to make this venue the funnest joint possible.
We want this to be the big space you need to have you bouncing between playing pool, banging out karaoke in one of the private rooms, enjoying a fancy-pants cocktail inside Valentines – our exclusive cocktail lounge – and on game days, it’s the only place you’ll want to be as we show major sports live on a big-ass LED screen with cinema quality sound.
Why give birth to a new baby? Well, after 4 years of grafting beers and music at our current venue on Orchard Road, we decided it was time to step it up and try our hand at a fresh concept, while going all in, guns blazing, The Block style, and have a crack at building a new joint to become its own shooting star and superbly complement OG Bucketty’s in the process.
And honestly, while times are tough in brewing and hospitality right now with shrinking margins, people spending less money, and the government robust in excising us into oblivion, it’s at these moments when opportunity knocks…and this was just too good an opportunity to pass up.
Hopefully we get it right and you guys love it as much as we’re enjoying creating it! Stay tuned for updates. We’re shooting for a soft opening in early April. Maybe we should do a special pre-open for the esteemed Tawny readers? That could be cool! We’re still working these things out though, so best get back to work so we see you at Chalky’s very, very soon.
