Dine BNE City returns for 2025

6 MAY 2025

Brisbane foodies and flavour-seekers are loosening the belts and clearing the calendar as the city's biggest dining celebration returns this June, with more flavour, flair and festivities this year than ever before.

Now in its fifth year, Dine BNE City is back from 1 - 30 June 2025, featuring over 100 exclusive offers and special dining events across more than 60 of The City's top restaurants and bars.

Celebrating Brisbane’s world-class culinary scene, Dine BNE City invites locals and visitors to indulge in unforgettable dining experiences. From signature lunches and indulgent dinners to specially curated sip and snack pairings and unmissable foodie events.

Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner said Dine BNE City will deliver a powerful boost to the city’s local hospitality sector.

“As Australia’s lifestyle capital, Brisbane’s vibrant culinary scene creates more to see and do for residents,” Cr Schrinner said.

“Dine BNE City is serving up its biggest lineup yet, with an extensive range of deals that encourage diners to explore the best of Brisbane’s thriving food scene, no matter their budget.

“Since 2021, this initiative has helped champion local businesses while offering a more cost effective way to experience Brisbane’s dynamic food culture.”

The excitement begins on Friday, 30 May with the return of Fireside, the highly anticipated launch event held under the stars at the Grounds of St Stephen’s Cathedral. This all-inclusive dining experience will feature food and drink from a hand-picked selection of Brisbane City venues, brought together for one night only of open-air feasting and live entertainment.

The program boasts an impressive mix of returning favourites and exciting new entrants. Long-time crowd-pleasers like Donna Chang, Walter’s Steakhouse & Bar, Rothwell’s, Patina at Customs House, Opa Bar + Mezze, The Lex, Persone, The Gresham, and Tillerman Seafood Restaurant will once again delight diners with special menus and offerings.

Joining the line-up this year are some of Brisbane’s hottest new venues, including Stilts, Mulga Bill’s, Naldham House venues The Brasserie, The Terrace, The Fifty Six and Club Felix, Little Miss Sunshine, The Merchant Exchange, Luc Lac, Dark Shepherd, Pompette Champagne Bar & Restaurant, Osso Bar Italia and Trove Cocktail Bar.

From 1 June, diners can explore four themed experiences across the program. ‘Let’s Do Lunch’ will offer a variety of $25 or $35 lunch deals, perfect for a quick bite or a long lunch with colleagues. The ‘Supper Club’ category will feature specially curated dinner menus and unique experiences to tempt after-dark foodies.
