Shake that Boo-ty at these 4 Venues this Halloween

Ghostly greetings readers – we witch you a Happy Halloween!

Please park all brooms at the door as we prepare to eat, drink and be scary on this All Hallows’ Eve. Don’t be a scaredy-cat, embrace all things ghostly as black cats prowl and pumpkins gleam in homes around Australia.

For those looking to celebrate, fasten your sheet-belts…it’s about to get a little crazy on Thursday, October 31; here are four venues to keep calm and carry wands:

Find a quaint locally-loved venue delivering bites and brews to Reservoir foodies at The Window Cnr Café on Mendip Road. On balmy Melbourne days sit streetside and watch the world pass by, or head indoors where cabinets overflow with all manner of temptations and the vibe is bright and breezy with white painted brick and potted plants setting the scene for café catchups with family and friends.

 

Stop in this Halloween and take in the witch-themed decorations as you chow down on a ghoulishly good double beef and cheeseburger with pickles, lettuce, spiked onion rings, chips and salad; or say boo to hash brown Benny – two hash browns topped with poached free-range eggs, bacon and Hollandaise sauce – washed down with a cold-pressed juice.

Drink where the locals drink at Sydney spirit and cocktail bar, Grain by Four Seasons Hotel on George Street in the heart of the city. Grain Bar celebrates the fine craft of drinking in a neighbourhood vibe - showcasing passion, produce and people in moody surrounds of subtle lighting, a glowing aqua bar and embossed walls, setting the scene for lingering over cocktails and share plates.

 

Join the Halloween fun on Saturday, November 2 and Sunday, November 3 for a night filled with mystery, music and merriment as you play your part in the Mind Game. Get ready for some intrigue as Grain Bar exclusively partners with Mind Games Luxury Fragrances for an unforgettable Halloween Party – dress up for a black and white masquerade with prizes for best dressed, specialty black and white cocktails and a live DJ spinning hauntingly delightful tunes.

Seated high above the bustling city and overlooking lush countryside, enjoy mouth-watering food and wine in an exquisite venue at Sisters Rock Restaurant on Lake Canobolas Road in Orange. Located at the top of the vineyard at Borrodell Estate, boasting glorious views over the slopes of the Towac Valley to Orange in the distance, Sisters Rock offers a premier dining experience.

 

Hallow-wine is a celebration of all things Halloween with great wine, pizza and lots of laughter with friends on Thursday, October 31, along with spooky trivia and a dress-up competition with great prizes; pair a slice of your favourite pizza with estate drops such as Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Shiraz for a fang-tastic Halloween.

Discover the culinary gem that is Ahmet’s Turkish Restaurant on Grey Street in South Bank. Indulge in rich flavours and warm hospitality at Brisbane’s authentic Turkish dining experience and be transported to the streets of Istanbul amid surrounds of beautiful wall art, leadlight pendents, patterned table cloths and stacked stone walls as you peruse a menu sure to tempt all palates.
