Stitch and Bitch Knitting Circle+

Holy Knit Batman! It’s The Southern Cross Knitting Circle!
Come join in – from beginners to experienced knitters. Now you can wile away the evening hours, stitch and bitch or flip the script and give Grandma a cardie next Christmas. Everyone welcome, young or old, blokes or ladies. Just bring down some wool and needles.
Hosted by the lovely Katharine from 2 Minute Needles, there'll always be someone there to show you some tricks and teach you the bits and bobs of knitting.
Monday nights at 7pm in our Lounge, first area on the right as you walk in the front doors.

Monday & Tuesday Two-for-Ones+

STONEGRILLS
Every Monday and Tuesday we offer stonegrill meals – two for the price of one (the meal of lesser value is free)!
If you haven’t had a Stonegrill meal before you should try it out - your food is cooked by YOU, at your table, on a 400 degree Celsius volcanic rock, with no added fats or oils. Just like a mini BBQ, cooked to perfection because you cooked it!
This deal is available Monday and Tuesday, from 5.30pm onwards. We only have a limited number of stones (and they take a good few hours in the oven to heat back up) so they're only available on a first-in, first-served basis. Get in quick so you don't miss out!

excluding public holidays
STEAKS AND BURGERS
If stonegrills don't tickle your fancy (or you missed out), never fear - we have 2 of our Porterhouse Steak meals for $35, or any 2 of our main menu Burgers for $30. Excludes WOAP Burger Wellington Entry. These deals are on every Monday and Tuesday* evening, from 5.30pm.
