About
Welcome to Cork & Lever, one of Toowoomba’s most unique and stylist bars, located in the heart of Margaret Street in the CBD. Loved by locals and visitors alike.
Opened in 2020, Cork & Lever quickly become known for their dazzling cocktail creations, all Australian gin collection and thoughtfully curated wine list.
As you would expect, Cork & Lever features an amazing array of Whiskeys, Rums and Liqueurs, all focused on the very best Australian producers.
With a delicious Tapas style menu the kitchen provided your taste buds with an extensive range of savory & sweet treats and larger share boards which are certainly substantial enough to call dinner.
Our small, Intimate and moody bar is filled with atmosphere with its soft lighting, candles, smooth and funky music and homely décor makes you feel comfortable any time day or night.
On Thursday nights we host UNCORKED a live music evening of acoustic art from Toowoomba’s premier musicians.
Perfect for after work drinks, girls night, before and after a show at the empire or a date night.
The bar is available on request for the very best small stand up or sit down dinners, memorable private functions or substantial parties.

"Great little funky bistro with an interesting range of cocktails, a cool downtown vibe, and really good service! The food was nicely prepared and just right for adding some spicy nibbles to your pre-dinner drinks. It was very busy when we attended but the wait staff quickly found us seating and delivered our order. I highly recommend this wine bar/bistro!"

"Having extensively travelled international enjoying many of the finest bars. This is one of Australia’s most understated little boutique bars; that is locally owned and operated. The wine list is brief but appropriately broad and enticing to enjoy. Rarely in Australia do you receive such absolute first class and consistent service as this"
