Death & Co’s Brisbane outpost, tucked beneath the Regatta Hotel in the atmospheric former digs of The Walrus Club, offers one of the city’s most compelling destinations for cocktail lovers and late-night grazers. Designed with the brand’s signature moody elegance – marble bar, candlelit nooks and heritage brick – the venue also boasts a red-lit lounge hosting regular jazz performances. Guests are handed an extensive cocktail tome featuring Death & Co classics like the Naked & Famous and Oaxacan Old Fashioned, alongside playful creations such as the Buko Gimlet and refined sips like the Kaikoma Highball. For indecisive drinkers, bartenders happily craft bespoke cocktails based on your tastes and the drinks list is rounded out with wines, beers and zero-proof options. The food menu leans snack-forward, ideal for settling in – think truffle popcorn, blistered shishito peppers, stracciatella with garden-pea pesto, lamb burgers, fried-chicken skewers and the cult-favourite Uncle Wes’ Drunken Cookies served with milk.
