Our first home

Brouhaha Maleny is where it all began. The true Hinterland Brouhaha experience.

In 2016, the craft beer haven that is our Maleny venue sprang to life and immediately started producing premium quality beer and serving amazing, fresh, local food that drew from the hinterland’s bountiful resources. Brouhaha Maleny grew year on year, hitting capacity by 2019.

A new purpose built venue at Brouhaha Baringa has taken on the demand of our brewing requirements. Brouhaha Maleny can continue to serve amazing beer alongside its changing menu that showcases local produce.A new large pizza oven adds to the food led ambiance of the space and fires up hand stretched pizzas at the weekend to run alongside our seasonally changing al a carte menu.

We are thrilled to welcome back our renowned former Head Chef, James Ostridge, who has a deep passion for sourcing and utilizing local ingredients. With James at the helm, our kitchen will offer a delightful blend of classic dishes using the finest local ingredients, as well as unique creations that push the boundaries of traditional flavors.

James’s culinary journey took him to open Mill Street Kitchen in Nambour with his wife Haley, where they successfully showcased local produce and earned a reputation for excellence, even during the challenging times of COVID. Their dedication to quality was recognized when they were named the “Best Paddock to Plate Restaurant on the Sunshine Coast” by Qantas Magazine.

Inspired by their food exploration in Europe, particularly the UK in 2022 James and Haley decided to return to the Sunshine Coast and create a British pub-style concept in the beautiful hinterland of Maleny.The experienced pair have settled in as Maleny locals with their two boys at school in the town.This new era for Brouhaha Maleny and they want you to come and try for yourself.

“We want to create a welcoming pub that serves top quality food and award winning beer, utilising seasonal produce is paramount and we want to showcase the Sunshine Coast on as many dishes as we can”
