Stone & Wood
Stone & Wood Brewing Company was founded by three blokes who share a love of beer, taking a fresh approach to brewing handcrafted beer in Byron Bay, one the greatest places on earth. Our brewing philosophy is based on brewing beer that makes the most of the ingredients available today. Beer that simply lets the flavours and aromas of the ingredients shine through by keeping the processes to a minimum. Beer that is simply good to drink. Our beers are an expression of the Stone & Wood approach to life – trying to take things slow and keep it simple. There will be two Stone & Wood bars available at the markets, serving beer as well as other alcoholic refreshments during the event.

The Nighthawk Diner
The Nighthawk Diner was founded by a couple of young chefs with backgrounds in French fine dining. They have been borderline-obsessed with American culture since they were raised feeling as though Chevy Chase was the father every boy dreamed of, and Sesame Street was just a suburb over. You can expect handmade deliciousness that includes re-worked diner classics like the cheeseburger and milkshake. Non-bastardised, handmade simplicity – all ingredients including the bun, made from scratch.

Also on the menu is are rice dishes including beef + kimchi & chilli tofu.
