To give back to our supportive community;

The Grand is gifting 11 x $200 vouchers to those who are doing it tough in lockdown!

Do you know someone who is in need of support?

Someone that may need assistance with their groceries, someone that deserves a take away dinner & drinks feast or someone that deserves to treat themselves to a haircut or night out when we can re-open?!

The Grand is here to support you!

The Grand has purchased 1 x $200 voucher from each of the following small local businesses:

• Ember Dining
• Bocca Pizzeria
• Quintons IGA
• Warrandyte Quality Meats
• 5pm Hard Seltzer
• Essentially Hair by Emma

On top of this, The Grand has 5 x $200 vouchers to be enjoyed here at The Grand when we re-open!

To nominate someone who deserves a $200 voucher, please email The Grand team at: info@grandhotelwarrandyte.com.au with the recipients name & a paragraph on why you think they deserve a voucher.

The Grand thanks you, for our communities continued support & this is our way of giving back to our wonderful supportive community.

The Grand Hotel is proud to share the following statistics we have saved our community in just 9 solid working weeks.

We have been using the BottleCycler to recycle all glass bottles in our venue and are amazed at how much we have saved our environment in such a short space of time.

The Bottle Cycler is an easy and effective way for hospitality venues to recycle glass on-the-go and we are looking forward to watching these numbers grow even further!

The Grand Hotel is on the front page of our local paper Warrandyte Diary!

“WE LOVE our pub. In fact, we love our pub more than any other town in Victoria.” – Warrandyte Diary

We are so proud of our Grand Team, for taking out two awards at the Australia Hotel Association State Awards for Excellence!

“The Grand is now eligible for the national awards, which are held in September in Tasmania. It would be great to be recognised not just in Victoria as the The Heart of The Community, but in Australia, it would be pretty special for our little Warrandyte pub.” – Peter Appleby

Thank you for your ongoing support during these difficult times, it is greatly appreciated!
