Restaurants etc
We know there can be a bit of a wait between the ceremony and the reception, when the bridal party are off doing bridal party type things, like photos, so we have included a few Toowoomba 'hotspots' that are around the area, where you may like to spend the 'in between' time.

The Irish Club
80 Russell Street

Gip's Restaurant
120 Russell Street
Toowoomba, QLD 4350
07 4638 3588
A delightful restuarant located near the centre of town, up the road from the reception venue. Walkable distance, but perhaps not recommended for those in fabulous heels. Gip's can offer you coffees and light refreshments while you wait.
The Coffee Club
Cnr Margaret & Victoria St
Toowoomba, QLD 4350
07 4639 3199
Nearby Coffee Club is located up the road from the reception venue and can offer coffees, something with a little more kick and light meals or snacks.
McDonalds Family Restuarant
277 Margaret Street
Toowoomba, QLD 4350
You may want to go traisping about in your finery and wait in line for pimple faced insolents to serve you gourmet feasts served in cardboard boxes, that taste just like their contents. If so, may I recommend McDonalds, handily located near our reception venue, and boasting outdoor and indoor seating, 'booth seats', a drive thru (highly recommended) and a play area for the child in all of you.
