Swillhouse is an independent hospitality group creating venues with distinct identities and lasting relevance. Across restaurants, bars and late-night music rooms, each space is shaped by craft, atmosphere and a deep attention to detail.
Our venues are only as strong as the people behind them. We care about how the work is done - leadership that's present, standards that matter, and teams who take pride in their role and the experience they deliver every day.
The Caterpillar Club is Sydney's underground bar built on sound, energy, and staying up to catch the final set. Live bands take the stage and DJs spin till close, no laptops, no autoplay, just records and the people who know how to play them. Caterpillar Club is a temple for crate diggers, soul lovers, and late-night dancers - a sunset to late-night scene that welcomes all.
