Article subject lacks the in-depth, independent coverage needed to establish the subject as meeting WP:NCORP, specifically WP:CORPDEPTH. Coverage consists of local reviews and press releases announcing the opening of the venue, which may be WP:TOOSOON as it opened in June 2023. Little indicates the longer term, encyclopedic notability of the subject, or how it is uniquely, notability different from other, similar venues.SamHolt6 (talk) 15:51, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per the nominator. My !vote's rationale here closely resembles my rationale at another similar AfD at an article created by the same author. Those two sources aren't enough. I'm especially unimpressed by the second source, which is more or less a guide for what to do at the inn, with headings like "What to eat", "What to drink", "Who to go with", "What’s on the speakers", "Best seat", and "Pro tip". One of the reasons I think the article fails WP:SIRS is the fact that its coverage of the truly important aspects of the inn is missing. The only part of the second source that actually mentions the inn's history, for example, is "Andrew McConnell’s Trader House team has opened a new venue in Melbourne". I'm not seeing any "significant, in-depth coverage" there. What needs to be available in these sources is a detailed history of the inn, or perhaps a neutral description of the inn's influences on its local setting (so that it can be used in the article), or something of the sort. In addition, the inn opened quite recently, and most businesses in large cities will be subject to reviews anyway, many of which won't contain WP:SIGCOV; imagine if we had an article for every new business in Australia.

Delete TOOSOON. The Sydney Morning Herald article is fine, but the place just opened. Beyond covering the local nightlife, there isn't much to be said about coverage for this place. Could perhaps re-visit in a year, but no point in draftifying until then. Oaktree b (talk) 22:54, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Agree with TOOSOON. It only opened last month. Generally speaking restaurants (and indeed organisations) need long term coverage. LibStar (talk) 23:15, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom a case of WP:TOOSOON opened in June 2023 that is last month.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 13:00, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
