IMPRESSIVE TEAM We recently attended our friends 40th birthday and we were impressed from the minute we were greeted at the front door. We had the exclusive use of the upstairs space, but gathered downstairs until about half of the guests arrived. The bar team were quick, friendly and happy to shake, mix and serve some very special creations. We were then ushered upstairs and the exceptional service continued. Food isn’t something I’ve eaten in a nightclub before and it was mind blowing. From pizza to asparagus, lamb koftas to chicken skewers and baked Camembert were simply delicious. Literally, every guest commented how fantastic the food was and there was plenty. Speeches were quick before the lights were dimmed and the DJ hit the decks for us to dance the night away. The single location for dinner, drinks and dancing is the most fun I’ve had for a birthday in a long time. Talk to the events team and they are super flexible and willing to help.

Had my 30th here last weekend and it was *FLAWLESS* Tyrone was beyond amazing. Every need I had was accommodated for and he went above and beyond in every way. The food was delicious, my guests were blown away and the timing of it all worked perfectly with the evening. Could not recommend this place enough. Tyrone was an absolute gem to work with and my bartender for the night Roxy was a star. So fun and personable and wonderful! If you’re questioning booking with these guys, do it! You won’t have a single regret!

Not the best place to get a drink. Don’t really understand the interior design. It looks as though every venue in the valley that had left over stock for their in house equipment gave it to larouche at a discount. Drinks are mediocre and staff seemed somewhat engaging. Nothing to write home about. Spaced out tables. Comfortable setting. 3 stars.

Handy little cocktail bar in the heart of Fortitude Valley. I’ve never had a bad night here in all the years it has been gracefully serving the valley. Funky vibe and decorations featuring tall chairs, tables and high back upholstered chairs. The cocktail menu isn’t huge but there will definitely be something you want to try. Opens up into the back lane way but not sure if you can smoke there.
