Private Functions and Weddings

Nestled beside the open lawn, the original farm laundry shed now serves as the bar at the centre of private celebrations at Coffin Rock Distillery in York, Western Australia.

Once home to the generator that powered the homestead before main power reached the property, the shed still carries that story. The original generator remains beside the bar, a quiet reminder of the site’s working past. Today, the structure stands open to the lawn, operating as a dedicated event bar with your selection of up to three beers or RTDs on tap, alongside a curated cocktail offering built around Coffin Rock spirits.

There are no walls separating guests from the landscape. Drinks are poured, glasses raised and conversations drift across the grass.

Ideal for smaller weddings, private functions, birthday parties and social gatherings of 15 to 40 guests.

These conditions are designed to support a safe, respectful event on a working rural property and within a functioning distillery environment.
