Let's Lunch at Howard Smith Wharves 2023

Overview

No one should spend their lunch break eating at their desk, but breaking that habit isn't always easy. From Wednesday, March 1–Friday, March 31, the Howard Smith Wharves precinct is giving you plenty of motivation to step away from the computer. Head to the riverside precinct from Monday–Friday for a middle-of-the-day meal, and your lunch will cost $25.

Eight HSW venues are getting in on the deal, so you can pick between Stanley, Yoko, Greca, Mr Percival's, Felons Brewing Co, Felons Barrel Hall, Felons Fish 'n' Chipper (doing walk-ins only) and Ciao Papi. Or, you can work your way through them all (and stare at their slightly different views of the water) across the month-long period. You'll just need to keep an eye on each eatery's opening hours — and, while you can just rock up, bookings are recommended.

As for what you'll be eating during the month-long Let's Lunch festivities, each place has its own special. A signature Cantonese lunch plate with roast duck, honey glazed char siu pork and more is on the menu at Stanley; Yoko is serving up a wagyu and scallop donburi special; and Greca is doing souvlaki, for instance.

There are four different dishes on offer at Mr Percival's, Felons, Felons Barrel Hall and Ciao Papi, too — the latter including lobster spaghetti — giving you even more options.

Unlike in previous years, you will need to buy any drinks on top this time around, however.
