Brunch Now, Nap Later! 5 Venues for a Weekend Brunch Fix

This popular weekend phenom has stepped up a notch in recent years and become a rite of passage for eager brunch-goers; after all, what is better than a little hair of the dog?

Would you like eggs or waffles with your Champagne this weekend? Here are five venues to get your bottomless fix:

One of Cairns’ most iconic waterfront venues with impressive views spanning the waterfront and Marina Point, Salt House on Pier Point Road is the ideal location to enjoy and embrace Tropical NQ. Take to the over-water deck and watch all manner of seacraft glide by or dine indoors, where the kitchen is centred around a custom-built Argentinian wood-fired grill with local seafood also playing its part.

Stop in for the new Sunday bottomless tradition and for just $69 per person you can enjoy a shared antipasto starter, a choice of mains and a one-hour package of bottomless Aperol Spritz, Prosecco, house wine and tap beer; think mains like beer-battered barramundi, shoestring fries, tartar sauce, rocket and red onion salad and lemon.

Nestled where the lake meets the ocean, discerning Terrigal foodies head to Maccoa Restaurant on Ocean View Drive for stunning views across the golden sands of the lagoon all the way to iconic Skillion. Located at The Clan, a fresh white décor with clever pops of colour, enhances the food experience like no other on the Central Coast, proving hugely popular with locals and visitors alike.

Maccoa’s Bottomless Pink Gin Fizz Brunch is perfect for a get-together, hen’s party, birthday or any special celebration; the two-hour package includes pink gin fizz, hot and cold delectable dishes and dessert. Those wanting to order off the breaky menu won’t go past smoked salmon Benny with perfectly poached eggs and Hollandaise on sourdough or a toasted English muffin.

Every flavour tells a story at microbrewery The Cheeky Pint on Barkly Street in Footscray. Throw the doors open and you are greeted with a vibe as inviting as the couch on a Sunday with an intimate dining space, sprawling bar blessed with large copper tanks housing exclusive beers and an informal lounge area. There are 12 different beers on the menu, 10 of which are exclusively brewed by The Cheeky Pint, a lengthy cocktail list and some of the best pub grub you have experienced – consider the whistle wet!

 

It’s bottoms up at The Cheeky every Saturday so jump in the group chat and use all the persuasive words in your vocab to convince the gang to join a Bottomless Brunch session. For just $29 per person, you’ll get bottomless beer, wine and selected cocktails with the purchase of a main meal; pig out on mains such as the famous Cheeky parma topped with leg ham, authentic Napoletana sauce and tasty cheese, served with wedges, salad and aioli.

Those seeking a classic French-inspired bistro with a little ‘je ne sais quoi’ head to The Canopy to find Garçon on Rosenthal Avenue in Lane Cove. Nestled in one of Sydney’s most vibrant community spaces, this bistro is the place to live, learn and enjoy good food, whether you are craving a casual brunch, family dinner, romantic date or group celebration.

 

Weekends are made for brunching and what makes brunch better? Endless pours of French bubbles, of course! Bring your besties for an elegant, French-inspired four-course Bottomless Brunch featuring free-flowing sparkling wine, delicacies like squid ink pasta, truffle chicken cordon bleu and a tropical dessert to finish. Combined with pastel-hued interiors, an alfresco terrace and marble tables, this will be an elegant affair with a boozy twist.

If you thought Ballarat's vibrant dining scene couldn’t get any better, meet the city's latest sensation, serving authentic Mexican cuisine since 2013 - Hecho en Mexico on Sturt Street. It’s hard to miss this bustling restaurant with neon signage out front along with black and yellow striped umbrellas for alfresco dining while indoors takes you to the streets of Mexico with brightly coloured couches, table settings and sombreros.

 

Nothing says leisurely more than a Mexican Bottomless Brunch at the weekend with unlimited Patron Classic Margaritas, Palomas, red Sangria, house wine and beer, along with unlimited gourmet tacos; think choices like fish, prawn, pork, chicken, beef and chorizo tacos, with both vegetarian and vegan options available.
