Quick History

  • Fannys nightclub exists on the historic and state-significant Argyle House site.
  • Argyle House was built in the 1860's and was used as the head office of the powerful Australian Agricultural Company until 1965, at which time it was sold.
  • With minor restorative and construction work, the building was then developed into a theatre restaurant called "Fanny's Bar & Grill". It was named "Fanny's" after the American woman who owned the venue at this time.
  • The venue has most recently been renovated in the final months of 2007. The result is a contemporary, attractive space
