Urban List

If we asked you to tell us what you know about Bundaberg, you’d undoubtedly say one thing: it’s where Bundaberg Rum comes from. And while this is most certainly true, and almost makes a visit to the coastal city worthwhile all on its own, that isn’t the only reason to make the drive north. Turns out, as well as being home to some spectacular beaches, Lady Elliot Island and the access point to a World Heritage-listed marine park, Bundaberg is a food and booze lovers haven, chock-a-block full of amazing places to eat, drink and then drink some more (this is rum country after, all).  

They say it’s never too late to start your next adventure. For Marianne Lethbridge and Ed Murray from Vintner’s Secret Vineyard, these words couldn’t be more fitting. Set high above Childers in the peaceful surrounds and beautiful greenery of the rolling hills, you’ll find these two dreaming of their next taste-bud tantalizing wine.

Come discover the iconic backyard of the Bundaberg Region and meet the people that are the heart and soul of Bundaberg with this action-filled, taste bud tingling bucket list!

From Easter egg hunts, delicious feasts for the family, backyard campouts and crafty activities, make this Easter EGGstra special!

Here in Bundaberg we are a resilient lot.  We've seen our share of hard times - the floods, the droughts, the time the Rum Distillery caught fire - and we have drawn closer so we could stay stronger.  In a time of great uncertainty and anxiety, we want to share some of the good things that are coming out of our towns.

So lets talk about how our local chefs and foodie operators are coming up with tasty ways that we can get our local food fix while still practising responsible social practices.  From serving their world-class dishes for takeaway and delivery, to changing up their dining rooms so you have a bit more space, here are some ways Bundy chefs are helping to keep our belly full and taste buds tingling.

And while they're putting food on your table, you're supporting our hospitality industry to keep food on their own. Everyone's a winner! 

So if you're a local, or just living like one, pick up the phone and rustle up your spare change for gourmet eats, sweet treats, and local drinks to enjoy the best tastes of Bundaberg right in your living room.
