Tuck in to holiday specials

THE holiday season may have broken the bank but you can still enjoy a meal out with the family thanks to many local venues offering affordable dining options.
There may be no table service, but bistro venues often have great lunch specials and there no dishes to clean up afterwards.
The Noosa Golf Club has $12 lunch specials, Noosa Reef Hotel offers $10 lunch special from Monday to Friday and the Tewantin Noosa Bowls Club has daily specials such as BarraMonday with fish, chips and a trip to the salad bar for only $10.
Villa Noosa is well-known for its family friendly menu, with kids eating free every Monday, plus kids’ entertainment throughout January to keep the little ones entertained.
Get along for face painting and a balloon artist on Friday 9 January from 5.30pm and Nickleby the Magician on Saturday 17 January from 6pm.
If you’re looking for a romantic night out, then try the Noosa Waterfront Restaurant and Bar’s two course meal and a glass of wine for $35 or have three courses and a glass of wine for $45, while RACV’s Acuri restaurant offers two courses for $34 and three courses for $39.
