About the restaurant

Here at Humble on Duke we are all about good honest food, fantastic Australian wine and great service.
We are an intimate venue with one chef serving Modern Australian with flavours and spices from the Middle East & Mediterranean. If you are here for a quick meal, that's not us, we are not just a vehicle for food but a dining experience so allow 2hrs-2.5 hours to dine with us.
Our menu designed by Stacey Conner showcases fresh & local produce from around Noosa and up the Queensland coast.

We are a small intimate venue, so book ahead to avoid disappointment.
You can dine on either of our share menus which will consist of a range of snacks, a large dish to share with your choice of add-ons.

We take groups of up to 6 guests & children dine on the same menu at the same cost, we do this so that you get the experience you deserve and other guests in our tiny home can also enjoy themselves. If you would like to enquire about a group larger than 6 please email info@humbleonduke.com.au.

About the restaurant

European Bar & Restaurant

Specialises in honest and uncomplicated European cuisine done well, Belgian beers, European wines, classic and house made cocktails.

Chef Alex Hughes honours our European traditions whilst celebrating the beautiful premium local produce that the Sunshine Coast has to offer.

"The interior alone is timeless, effortlessly sexy and does a fine job of solidifying this place as somewhere you’ll totally want to hang out. Basically, if we were to rate this place on the atmosphere alone, we’d be dishing up a big, fat 10."

Pizzeria

Maroochydore

About the restaurant

Tucked down a laneway, housed in an industrial building, you'll find our quirky pizzeria. Our vibe is super casual and we love to see our customers sharing pizzas, beers and enjoying life. Our space is ideal for large groups, but also for families and couples.

Were all about the pizza! Pizza Napoletana is authentic pizza from Naples, and we make it according to the generations-old technique....with just a little of our own twists here and there. Our dough is made in-house and fermented for a minimum of 24hrs to create a tasty and light base - minimal yeast so no bloating here. Then its hand-stretched, topped with quality ingredients imported from Italy AND sourced locally, and cooked at a fiery 400 degrees.

We do other stuff as well - starters, sharers, salads, homemade desserts, and gelato. Plus cocktails, imported and locally brewed beers, and some carefully selected wines from independent wineries.

About the restaurant

Located in The Crocodile Hunter Lodge, Warrior Restaurant & Bar is a unique dining experience you won’t want to miss. Open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner, our menu’s identity is derived from the classical techniques of the world with the modernisation that is Australian cooking. Recipes are influenced by the unique produce that Australia has to offer, in a celebration of our region. The Chefs at Warrior spend their time sourcing beautiful local ingredients to create these dishes. Paying homage to the First Nation people and the plant life they have been utilising for thousands of years, we at Warrior endeavour to take these earthy flavours and pair them with the fresh produce of our neighbouring farms.
