Established 2012

Balmain

The Cottage Balmain is a place to meet, to eat, to celebrate. Our leafy courtyard is begging for garden parties, family feasts and long lunches.

Our charming heritage building has been at the heart of Balmain since late 1800s.

Established in 2012, The Cottage Balmain has become a local institution over the past decade.

Whether it’s some casual drinks in the expansive courtyards, date night by the fireplace, or that celebratory milestone event, we’d love to welcome you to The Cottage Balmain.
