Longrain is a contemporary restaurant and bar uniquely located within an expansive, 110 year-old converted warehouse. A hip, yet welcoming atmosphere is combined with warm service, original cocktails, an inspired wine list and award-winning, modern Thai/Asian food, created by executive chef, Martin Boetz.

Positioned within the heart of the artistic design quarter of inner-city Surry Hills, Longrain is only minutes from Sydney’s CBD and eastern suburbs - making it both a popular lunch and dinner destination for locals and visitors alike. Industrial features of the original warehouse co-exist with modern design additions, such as a signature wall of woven-wood panelling and a contemporary selection of Australian art and photography by celebrated artists such as Christopher Hodges.

The relaxed cocktail bar, with its long banquette, is home to resident DJs who create the perfect mood for lounging back and sipping cocktails. The caipiroska is Longrain’s signature cocktail and is often credited as the cocktail at the heart of the ‘stick drink’ revival. Other infamous in-house cocktails include the Ping Pong, Camp Bitch and Bloody Longrain.

The dining room is dramatically divided by three enormous wooden communal dining tables. These are deliberately designed to encourage traditional ‘Asian-style’ banquet dining. Executive chef Martin Boetz’s menu is a mouth-watering blend of Thai and Chinese influences with dishes that are designed to be shared. A wine list is carefully created by fellow co-owner and award-winning sommelier Sam Christie to perfectly balance the menu’s combination of hot, sour, salty and sweet flavours.

Longrain Sydney celebrated its 10th Birthday during 2009! In 2010 Longrain Melbourne will turn 5 years old in one of the world’s most exciting dining capitals. Located centrally within Melbourne’s CBD Longrain Melbourne also plans to open a bar and private dining room above the restaurant in the future.
