Story

The Grain Store Newcastle, owned and operated by Kristy and Corey Crooks, has been restored to the beautiful Warehouse venue it once was. Located in Newcastle’s new food and cafe hub of the historic East End, with high ceilings, Art Deco tiling and timber flooring, it is the perfect site for the independent beer focus it now has. It oozes character and style, and it’s walls tell a story.

Situated on the corner of Scott & Telford St, it was built by J.T Toohey (Tooheys Brewery) in 1885. It was originally built as the grain and keg storage facility & acted as the Newcastle Depot. The original elevator shaft down to the underground basement is still there to this day and can be seen by customers.

The Grain Store boasts a tap list totaling 21, featuring 100% independently owned and 100% Australian brewed beers & ciders. This makes it one of the largest independent tap lists in Australia.
