Seize the opportunity to own a landmark pub and restaurant located in the heart of Melbourne’s bustling city centre. This expansive venue combines a lively bar and grill with an array of event spaces, making it perfect for both intimate gatherings and large-scale functions for up to 900 guests. Known for its classic pub fare, daily happy hour, and impressive drink selection— the bar serves easy-drinking beers poured from 64 taps, local wines by the glass, and signature cocktails—this establishment caters to diverse tastes and occasions.

The enormous venue has been designed to channel an island oasis, with hanging plants and murals of jungle flora and fauna behind each bar. The floor and ceiling designs are inspired by topographical maps, with mountain-like light fixtures and a blue grid frame that obscures the ceiling’s exposed pipes and vents – a pattern mirrored on the floor. Mimicking a stream, blue lines on the carpet wind through the venue’s almost-separate rooms, which are divided by low walls and booths.
Hightail occupies the ground level of a four-tower office complex at the western end of Collins Street. It’s intended as an escape: a place where people can get away from the office.
