The working day is done. You're hankering for a tipple and something in your stomach, but you're not yet ready for dinner. It's the familiar feeling that rolls around come quittin' time — well, that and the joy of being done with another day — and it's a dilemma that Victoria Park's bistro has a solution to.
Every Wednesday to Friday from 5–6pm, the Herston venue is serving up $5 beverages with $5 wood-fired garlic breads. But if you're feeling like a cheap sip and snack on a weekend, too, you're in luck. This time around, the special also extends to Saturdays and Sundays.
When it comes to the food and booze, you have to get one of both, so it'll cost you a minimum of $10. And, it's limited to two drinks per bread, to keep with responsible alcohol service rules. But, as far as a cheap bev and bite goes, it's a mighty fine and affordable option.
Drinks on offer include sparkling rose, Taltarni sauvignon blanc, Newstead Brewing Co's Victoria Park Pale Ale, Lumber Yak Mountain Cider, Great Northern Super Crisp, Stella Artois and basic spirits.
