About Us

Noosa Food Guide connects you to the best venues and producers in the Noosa region, Hinterland and surrounding areas. From iconic restaurants, the new arrivals, and the hidden gems only the locals know about. 

Our venues are reviewed and hand selected for their food, drinks, customer service, and unique atmosphere. Our featured venues represent the best of what they do or are unique in what they serve. 

Noosa Food Guide celebrates delicious food and the finest drinks and delivers a list of experiences worth visiting.

You’ll find everything from fine dining restaurants to boutique artisan distilleries or that trendy bar that serves the best espresso martini.

Noosa Food Guide will give you recommendations you can trust based on our editor’s vast experience and expertise in the hospitality industry.
