If there’s one thing we love in the foodie space, it’s a humble bottomless lunch (or brunch, or dinner).
A lively weekend feast with plenty of good mates, beautiful chef-cooked eats, free-flowing drinks and no washing up — it’s the stuff of dreams.
While regional Victoria is blessed with the opportunity to visit all our favourite cafes, restaurants and pubs once more, we’re confined to a two-hour limit on our stays. So, to make the most of those precious two hours, we tracked down a couple of the local eateries offering bottomless lunches and dinners to cure all your post-iso cravings.
Mt Duneed Estate
Located just 15 minutes from Geelong and the Surf Coast, Mt Duneed Estate offers couples, families and groups relaxed dining, paired with a glass of something special and a truly stunning view.
Using fresh local ingredients and preparing them for creating memorable dining experiences, Mt Duneed has always been a favourite when it comes to indulging in quality food, whether it be for lunch, dinner or anything in between.
Now they’ve teamed up with local Torquay chauffeur company Coastal Chauffeurs to provide locals and regional visitors with an all-inclusive dining option – bottomless lunch!
For $99, guests can enjoy a two-course lunch or dinner with two hours of bottomless wine, plus luxury transfers to and from the venue within a 30km radius from Mt Duneed. No need to worry about sorting Ubers or a designated driver, these guys have it covered. It’s a perfect option for a low-key birthday celebration or just a catch up with your favourite humans, with a minimum of six people and a maximum of 10.
Simply call the team on 0408501975 to book.
Mr Umami’s
A local favourite, Mr Umami’s has been delivering the flavours of Asia to Geelong for the past few years with their delicious handmade delights – from dumplings, curry pastes and sauces to duck dishes and sashimi.
Combining a range of different regional Asian ingredients and cooking styles with fresh Australian produce, Mr Umami’s have earned themselves a solid reputation for making modern fusion menu which can be enjoyed in a fun and relaxed environment… and what better way than through bottomless brunch!
Available on Friday nights, Saturday lunch and dinner and Sunday lunch, treat yourself to either a bottomless brunch for $70 per person, or spoil yourself with bottomless dinner for $90 per person.
You’ll be treated to four courses of Asian fusion (think dumplings, Bang Bang chicken, Japanese calamari) and two hours of Bottomless cocktails, mocktails, tap beer and wine – whichever your poison may be.
To be honest, we’re sold just looking at their cocktail menu. Espresso martini, ‘Asian Sensation’ (with melon liqueur, sake, apple, lime and falernum syrup), cherry blossom mojito, frosty fruit, lychee spritz and an Aperol Spritz. Delish!

Recess Bar + Eats
Recess is Central Geelong’s only Gluten-Free Restaurant offering you a space to run around, have a snack, play with friends and make new ones! With food that is A+ and cocktails that are even better, you’ll be pleased to know they are giving guests the option to play a little harder with their Bottomless Lunch.
