Dine BNE City returns with exclusive menus, delicious deals and one-off dining events across Brisbane
Brisbane’s month-long food festival is officially back, with Dine BNE City returning this June to serve up its biggest program yet. Across 30 delicious days, more than 80 restaurants, bars and cafes throughout The City will roll out exclusive menus, special events and limited-time offers designed to tempt diners from morning through to late night. Here’s a taste of what’s in store …
Running from June 1–30, this year’s Dine BNE City program features a record 130 dining experiences, spanning everything from quick breakfast bites and long lunches to cocktail pairings, chef-hosted dinners and indulgent multi-course feasts. Whether you’re squeezing in a midweek catch-up, planning a date night or simply looking for an excuse to revisit an old favourite, there’s plenty worth booking in for.
New for 2026 is Morning Edition, a breakfast-and-brunch category bringing extra incentive to start the day in The City. Expect coffee and breakfast deals, elevated brunch offerings and easy pre-work stops, from $1 hash browns with your morning coffee at Gather Bistro and the soon-to-open Goldie, to corn tostadas paired with watermelon mimosas at Riverbar & Kitchen. Over at Mr Edward’s Alehouse & Kitchen, hefty bacon-and-egg or avo-and-haloumi burgers come with coffee for just $15.
The ever-popular Let’s Do Lunch category is also back, making midday plans far more tempting. Among the offers are truffle risotto with a house wine or beer at Stilts and ‘cha chaan teng’ style steak paired with wine at Central – both for $40. Over at Marhaba Cafe, loaded BLTs will come served with chips and a Bundaberg Brewed Drink for $22.
