Where does the list come from?

Two public sources. Victoria publishes every current liquor licence each month (Liquor Control Victoria on data.vic.gov.au, CC BY 4.0): we find the licences that are new since the previous month. Liquor & Gaming NSW publishes new-licence applications on its noticeboard while they're assessed: we read it daily.

Which venues are included?

Licensed venues: restaurants and cafés, pubs and hotels, bars, bottle shops, clubs and producers such as wineries and breweries. A café without a liquor licence won't appear.

Why are NSW venues listed before they open?

NSW applications are published while the licence is being assessed, often weeks before the venue opens. Victorian licences appear once granted, in the month after.

Trading name, address, council area, licence type, capacity where published, and the licensee only when it's a company. We never show an individual's name.

This month's list for your areas is free to see, with a free email each Monday. Local is A$59 a month (one state, up to 5 council areas). VIC + NSW is A$149 a month (both states, every area, CSV export). Paid plans start with a 7-day free trial (card at sign-up); cancel any time.

A new venue chooses its suppliers before it opens.

Coffee roasters

A new café picks its coffee before the fit-out is finished. Be the first roaster through the door, with the licence record telling you where and how big.

Wine, beer & spirits reps

Every new restaurant, bar and bottle shop needs a list. NSW applications show up weeks before opening, while the list is still being written.

Hospitality software

POS, ordering, bookings and rostering: reach the venue while it's choosing, not after it has signed a two-year contract.

Linen, waste, insurance & fit-out

Every new licensed venue needs the boring essentials. Filter to your council areas and venue types and work the list each week.
