The Sherlock Holmes on Collins Street opened in November, 1985. The hostelry has been extremely well received, as have its comestibles, ales wines and spirits. So much so that the worst criticism has been that the establishment is too small for the large numbers of discerning citizens who wish to avail themselves of the sundry attractions which this unique tavern affords.

Here is a home for the aficionados of the works of the ineffable Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, where the friendly shades of Dr Watson, Professor Moriarty (a changed man since he went over the falls) and the Stradivarius playing, opium-smoking genius himself, the Great Detective, await your pleasure. They welcome you here and counsel the joy of Temperance
(not the glum grey abstinence). Enjoy the delights of our table, the wondrous products of the brewer, large or small, those of the winery and the distiller of sundry and glowing spirits.
