The Fat Goat

The Fat Goat operates as a specialised craft beer and gin bar located in the heart of Upwey. The establishment prioritises independent Victorian labels, offering a rotating selection of draught beers alongside a curated list of regional spirits. Visitors can access the venue easily from the main shopping strip, providing a central meeting point for residents and those travelling through the hills. The interior focuses on a functional aesthetic that suits its mountain location. Situated a short distance from the Puffing Billy Railway station in Belgrave, this pub serves as a convenient stop for tourists exploring the Dandenong Ranges. The beverage menu is complemented by a selection of local cheeses and charcuterie boards, though the primary focus remains on the drink list. Its position in Upwey makes it a key part of the local hospitality scene, catering to patrons who value high-quality Australian produce in an informal setting.
