Apéro Noosa

Apéro

Apéro Noosa is an ode to the European tradition of meeting a friend for an aperitif and a bite to eat. Whilst we wouldn’t quite put this one down as a restaurant, it’s a venue not to be missed! Why not stop in for a light supper of upscale bites ranging from peckish (bread, olives, anchovies) to more substantial meals (Mafadine pasta or wagyu beef sirloin). Sip on classic cocktails or choose from the extensive wine list. Hurry now, the oysters and champagne await you!

Moonstruck

Moonstruck

Cafe by day, gin-slinging bar by night, Moonstruck is always a delight After a long day at the beach, it's the perfect place to wind down with seating sprawling out across the pavement. Enjoy the curated Australian small-batch gin collection (go for a gin flight!) and a cheeseboard and soak up the last of the day before repeating it all again tomorrow.

YoYo Bar & Restaurant

For drinks with a view, head to YoYo Bar & Restaurant. YoYo is one of the best bars in Noosa to visit if you’re chasing down an extensive wine list, elegant cocktails and a good mix of local and international craft beers and spirits.

Boasting a global wine list, housed in a custom-made, temperature-controlled cellar, YoYo has been awarded two glasses in the Australia Wine List of the Year Awards in 2019. The interiors at this Noosa bar are modern and ambient, but we love the refreshing river views from the balcony.
