It’s a beautiful October Saturday evening, and we’d love to see you at Woodfire tonight.

Back by popular demand is one of our real Woodfire favourites: Wood-Fired Braised Beef Lasagna, served on a bed of fresh tomato sauce with parmesan and garlic toast. Rich, comforting and exactly the kind of dinner an autumn evening calls for.

Our pizza special has been proving very popular too: béchamel sauce, mozzarella, peppered steak, grilled onions, mushrooms and green peppers. Creamy, savoury and seriously good.

And if you fancy making a proper evening of it, start or finish with our Apple Pie Martini and make sure you leave room for dessert. We have a wonderful selection waiting for you, and Saturday night is definitely not the night to skip it.

Come in, get cosy, let us do the cooking and enjoy a relaxed dinner with us on this gorgeous October evening.

Open from 4pm tonight.

It’s Friday. The work week is done. Cooking dinner feels wildly unnecessary.

So may we tempt you with this?

Our Crispy Chicken Burger, topped with mozzarella, sweet chili lime aioli, lettuce, tomato and pickles, with a generous pile of those signature Woodfire fries we do so well.

And if you’re after something a little lighter, our Roasted Red Pepper & Tomato Soup and Winter Woodfire Salad are both firm favourites too.

Come in, get comfy and let us look after you. The team is ready, the kitchen is fired up, and we’d love to see you.

Or, if Friday night means getting into your comfy clothes and catching up on your favourite show, grab some takeout and let us take care of dinner.

Open tonight from 4–8 pm
