On the drinks front, think wine, beer and even a G&T for $8, alongside spritzes for a cheeky $10. Be warned, it’s only available from 5-6pm, so it’s a short window but definitely worth it!

We really do love a Banh Mi and Tiger Lane is doing buy one get one free on Tuesdays! Take a friend or a co-worker and make a date of it because this is a lunchtime special we can really get around. Better yet, all flavours are included in the deal so you can choose from chicken/pork/tofu… the list goes on! You don’t need to ask us twice.

The $27 Sunday Roast offering is also great, particularly if you like variety. The menu changes weekly, meaning you can return for something different every Sunday! You also get all the sides and house beer/wine or soft drink included in the price. Bargain!
