A Fancy Brunch

Mimosas on tap and plenty of avocado make for a brunch to remember. Perfect for filling the spot between breakfast and a midday meal, a fancy brunch is sure to go down well. You could choose a deal at their favorite restaurant or reserve a table somewhere they've always wanted to try. Either way, brunch is a winner.

Beer Tasting

Beer Tasting

Some of your best memories with friends start by cracking open a couple of cold ones together. Take them on a tour of a local brewery where they can sample the finest and freshest beers, straight from the tap. Some even offer complimentary snacks or a dinner off the menu to soak up all that frothy goodness. Not a fan of beer? Go wine or liquor tasting instead.

Show

Dinner & Entertainment Experience

One of the best gifts for foodies has to be dinner followed by a show. Tuck into some hearty fare before sitting back and watching acclaimed performers do their thing on stage. Alternatively, you can enjoy an immersive theatre experience with wining and dining options on top. Whichever option you choose, there's a whole new world of entertainment awaiting your foodie friend.
