Are you tired of the same old weekend routine? Morningside’s The Hills of Rivermakers brings a new world of exciting experiences to your doorstep.
The ambitious project, spearheaded by Potentia Solutions Leisure, the group behind popular venues like Soko Rooftop and Lina Rooftop, will breathe new life into the existing Rivermakers site on Colmslie Road. This 30-hectare space, already home to Revel Brewing Co and Mas & Miek Ceramic House, will now boast an array of exciting additions centred around the historic Commonwealth Acetate of Lime Factory.
A Feast for the Senses
Food lovers can rejoice with a wide variety of culinary offerings. The Hills will feature a pizzeria serving ten different kinds of pizza, a gelateria scooping over 20 flavours of homemade gelato, and a seafood counter offering fresh catches and classic fish and chips. A cafe and bakery will provide delicious daily treats, while coffee aficionados can enjoy freshly roasted beans from the on-site roastery. The Roadhouse will offer a casual pub experience with classic meals and a lively atmosphere.
In 2025, The Providore will open its doors, offering a curated selection of meats, dairy products, and fresh produce. An urban winery will provide a sophisticated space to enjoy locally made wines, charcuterie boards, and cheese platters, with indoor and outdoor seating.
Fun for the Whole Family
The Hills of Rivermakers is designed to be a destination for the whole family. A petting zoo will operate every weekend and throughout the school holidays, allowing children to interact with alpacas, rabbits, chickens, and other friendly animals. An indoor play area will allow kids to burn off energy while parents can relax and enjoy the precinct’s many offerings. An open-air cinema will screen films for those seeking entertainment under the stars, creating a unique outdoor movie experience.
A Sustainable and Community-Focused Approach
Ross Ledingham, founder of Potentia Solutions Leisure, expressed his confidence in the project and its appeal to families, young adults, and professionals in the area. The Hills aims to provide a much-needed hub for the community, offering a diverse range of activities and experiences. The development also incorporates sustainable practices, with increased parking, solar panels, improved irrigation systems, and a 200-square-metre garden providing fresh produce for the precinct’s kitchens.
A Venue for Every Occasion
The Hills of Rivermakers will also cater to a variety of events. The Engineers Hut provides an intimate setting for weddings and private celebrations, while a large heritage hall can accommodate up to 400 guests for larger functions. The open-air cinema, lawn, picnic area, and petting zoo can also be booked for private events.
