EVent Description

Escape the city and head to the charming town of Cambooya for a long lunch worth savouring. Nestled in the rolling countryside just outside Toowoomba, Bull & Barley Inn sets a stunning scene for the kind of leisurely lunch you’ll be talking about long after the plates are cleared.

This two-course meal is a love letter to the region, celebrating the exceptional local producers, growers and distillers who make the Darling Downs one of Queensland’s most exciting food and drink destinations. Expect generous plates, warm hospitality and a relaxed atmosphere where the only thing on the agenda is good food and great company.

Seats are strictly limited. Book now to secure your place at this signature event.

Your Host
Nestled in the heart of Cambooya, a quaint country town south of Toowoomba, you’ll find the Bull & Barley Inn. This historic pub was built in 1902 and retains the splendour of its colonial-era architecture and old-world charm. Known for their good old-fashioned hospitality and friendly atmosphere unique to small country towns, the Inn boasts a range of beer, wine and pub meals.

This is a seated event.

With tables of all sizes, each Weekend Table will be unique, offering a curated menu for each and every taste bud and price point.

Do I need to book multiple tables or can I just attend one?

The choice is yours but all events are unique so you can and may wish to attend more than one event.

What makes each table unique?

Each venue partner has created their own special event for the day and they have also curated their own experience. All events will have tables of different sizes (a ‘long table’ may be 6 or it may be 50!). Menus and inclusions cater for all palates and all budgets, some are fine-dining and some are more rustic. Some have live music and special entertainment, others are centred around conversation. There is something for everyone so make sure you check out each option to find your perfect experience or experiences, we would love to welcome you to more than one event.

How do I make a reservation for Weekend Table?

Simply purchase a ticket for the Weekend Table event you'd like to attend! Be sure to select the correct venue and date, as there are eight dates on offer.

Can I book multiple meal times at different venues?

Yes! Each Weekend Table event has a set date and time, and these can be combined to create an itinerary of experiences on any one day or over the four day timeframe. Please ensure that you allow driving or travel time between all events as some are based out of town and in a number of directions. Make sure you plan ahead of purchasing your tickets.

Can I request to be seated with friends or will I be placed with strangers?

Ideally you and your friends will book together to ensure you are seated together as a part of your group but most likely there will be others at the table, or in some cases it is an ‘extra-long table’.

There are eight different venues participating across the region:
• Aberfeldy Barn
• Bull & Barley Inn
• DownsSteam

Can dietary requirements and allergies be accommodated?

Some venues are able to accommodate dietary requirements. Please check the listing for each individual Weekend Table event.

Will I definitely be seated with people I don't know?

Sometimes and sometimes not, it depends on the venue and layout. We ask you to please arrive expecting that you will be seated with other people outside of your group as Weekend Table events are centred around ‘long tables’ to meet and share your experience with others.

How many people typically sit at each table?

• DownsSteam - 30

Whatever suits you – we welcome individuals, friend/family sets and small groups. Weekend Table events are a fantastic way to meet new people and make new friends, however you decide to attend.

What should I wear to these dining experiences?

Dress is smart casual to all events. Some events are outdoors – so please dress accordingly. Warm clothing and/or hats are suggested for outdoor and/or evening events and you may wish to consider wearing closed in and comfortable shoes for some events, if based in a paddock or vineyard.
