Midweek Melbourne Money (Broadsheet)

Get a quarter of your dining bill back – up to $125 – on pretty much any meal around the City of Melbourne, with the “biggest-ever Melbourne Money” round.

It’s available across the entire municipality including Southbank, Chinatown, Lygon Street, Docklands, North Melbourne and Kensington, including hospitality venues within sporting, arts and theatre precincts. It’s the “biggest-ever Melbourne Money” to date, with $10 million available to redeem back – the promo runs until allocation is exhausted. But with the return of the Victorian government and the City of Melbourne’s joint Midweek Melbourne Money initiative, it’s all within reach.

Midweek Melbourne Money Is Back to Give You Up to $125 Off ... (Concrete Playground)

The returning dining scheme is offering 25-percent rebates on eating out across the the entire City of Melbourne municipality between Monday–Thursday.

So, you do need to purchase something to eat to get the rebate, with your drinks only covered if you're buying food. Accordingly, that means that you can't claim the 25-percent cash back on food that you order via home delivery companies such as Uber Eats and Deliveroo. Still called Midweek Melbourne Money this time around — with that first word in the title highlighting a key rule — it covers meals either early or midway through the working week.

Restaurants for every occasion to help you make the most of ... (Good Food)

Melbourne Money is back for a third time and, in case you missed the memo, the state and local governments are essentially paying you to eat out in the CBD ...

Or head to Sosta (12 Errol Street, North Melbourne) for the culinary equivalent of a big warm hug, whether it's spanner crab and pangrattato spaghettini or crumbed lamb cutlets. Panda Hot Pot (100 Victoria Street, Carlton) leans Sichuanese, Nana Thai (169 Bourke Street) combines hot pot and grill for double the fun, and Dainty Sichuan (149 Lonsdale Street) is all fire. We tip that plenty of people will be booking tables at the big end of town to spend their Melbourne Money - which is a smart move. New Indonesian restaurant Kata Kita (266 La Trobe Street) from the Sanusi family who opened Yoi, operates at a different pitch to their other restaurant. Jetting from Venice to Emilia-Romagna is easy - just keep walking down Little Collins until you find the old Gills Diner site, home to the cosy Trattoria Emilia (360 Little Collins Street) since 2015. The catch is that you can't claim Melbourne Money on a bill that's only drinks - you must order some food.
