Outdoor Dining Tweed Heads: Local Produce Picnic

Everything is set up when you arrive. You just sit down and eat.

An alfresco dining experience in Tweed Heads where you arrive at a secluded beach, creek or mountain location to find an elegant outdoor table already arranged with hand-woven rugs, plush cushions and recycled barn-door tables. You dine on a mezze platter or brunch menu of 100% local and seasonal produce, served on hand-built ceramic tableware with linen napkins and crystal glasses, while the operator handles all setup and cleanup. Book for two as a couple or for a larger group. All dining is BYO alcohol, with glasses, ice and openers provided.

The experience

You arrive at a stunning location (a secluded beach, creek or mountain spot), and the entire dining experience is already waiting. Hand-woven rugs and plush cushions surround a recycled barn-door table set with hand-built ceramic tableware, crystal glasses and linen napkins. Nothing is disposable. Everything is plastic-free. The operator has handled all the setup, so you settle in immediately and take in the view.

The menu depends on the season and your choice of experience. The sunset mezze platter is designed for sharing and includes handmade cheeses and dips, rustic bread, salt and seed crackers, seasonal fruits, organic olives and local produce. If you book a brunch sitting instead, you get handmade muesli, avocado smash, rustic baguettes, seasonal fruit and cold-pressed juices. Everything comes from local producers. Food and drinks arrive in insulated wicker picnic baskets with ice packs to keep them cool. You bring your own alcohol. Glasses, ice and openers are provided.

The experience lasts around two hours. When you finish, the operator packs everything away: no cleanup on your end. Wheelchair-accessible seating is available if you prefer a chair to cushions, and the location itself is reachable by accessible transport. Most dietary requirements can be accommodated if you mention them when booking.
