Pictured – Hardware Lane in Melbourne

Fantastic food in stunning surroundings

Australia’s diverse climate and geography make every city a different dining experience, from the beer gardens and verandas of Brisbane to the pavement cafés of Canberra.

Sample the cosmopolitan cuisine of Melbourne; delight in Darwin’s special mix of tropical tastes; enjoy Adelaide’s emphasis on fresh, local ingredients; picnic in a Perth park; or dine under Sydney skies with a breathtaking harbour backdrop.

And you should not miss the classic Australian pie! Aussies love their pies, available across Australia in many varieties – try one of Adelaide’s “pie floaters”, a meat pie soaking in green pea soup (right). Wherever you are, Australia promises you a city dining experience you’ll never forget.
