Nando's to open first Australian drive-thru in major city, giving away free chicken
Nando's is set to open its first-ever drive-thru in Australia, with a flagship restaurant in Melbourne's northern suburbs. The store will open in Roxburgh Park in Melbourne's north on Tuesday June 10 at 11am, giving hungry customers the chance to pick up some Peri Peri chicken for lunch without leaving their car. To celebrate the launch of the flagship restaurant and drive-thru, customers will also be able to grab free quarter chicken and chips on the day of the launch – no purchase necessary and while stocks last. Drive-thru restaurants have become a key driver for revenue, making up approximately 60-70 per cent of overall revenue, according to QSR. The study found that 37 per cent of Australian consumers prefer to use the drive-thru method for ordering fast food compared to going in-store. Nando's Australia and New Zealand chief executive officer Amanda Banfield said the drive-thru marked the start of a new chapter for the restaurants, which has plans to expand further across the country. 'We've been privileged to be part of the Australian restaurant industry for 35 years and this marks yet another milestone of how Nando's is evolving,' she said. 'Over the next three years, we're planning to open another 25 Nando's restaurants across Australia and New Zealand, growing our workforce by 1000 people. 'Our goal is to open 70 new restaurants by 2030 – and Drive Thru's like Roxburgh Park are a key part of that growth story.' The new flagship restaurant will feature some of the business' 32,000 pieces of South African artwork, bustling Afro-Luso music, as well as bottomless drinks and the beloved sauce station.

English beach bar that ‘feels like being in the Med' with Ibiza-style music nights
Plus, one of the UK's oldest beach bars to open new rooftop terrace in time for summer BEACH PLEASE English beach bar that 'feels like being in the Med' with Ibiza-style music nights Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A SERENE beach bar in Cornwall is said to 'feel like being in the Med' with some of the best sunsets in the country. The Rockpool in Gwithian, Cornwall is located just 300 metres from three miles of picturesque sand. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 The Rockpool is located in Gwithian, Cornwall Credit: Instagram 6 Gwithian Beach stretches three miles in total Credit: Alamy 6 The beach is a popular spot with surfers and families Credit: Alamy Serving up a range of different dishes from restaurant Lula, The Rockpool sits just off of Gwithian Beach, which is known for its vibrant sunsets and seals. One person who visited The Rockpool said: "Food, drink, atmosphere, music and staff were immense. "Thought I was in the Med momentarily! Really recommend, the prawn skewers were superb. Will definitely be going back…" The venue also hosts "Ibiza style sundowner sessions", according to it's Instagram - with acoustic, jazz and band music each Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings and all day on a Sunday, all summer. Many visitors note how the restaurant is the ideal spot for watching the sun set on the horizon. A visitor said: "I sat outside and had an amazing view of the sunset. Will definitely be back here. "Had some live music as well which is always a bonus. Definitely a cool chilled out place that is kid friendly." Popular dishes include the restaurants "roast on the coast" which has previously included slow-cooked harissa lamb, Peri Peri chicken, Cauliflower and leek gratin. On Lula's website, the menu is described as "a fresh fusion of Cornish, New Orleans creole and Floridian crab shack spice". There is also a range of different breakfast options and many dishes suitable for veggies and vegans. UK beach named one of the top 100 in the world On Gwithian Beach itself, there is golden sand and a consistent swell great for surfers and kite surfers. Surfers particularly enjoy the nearby 'Sheep Dips' - a large pool formed between two big rocks, that is quite deep in the middle. For little ones, there are also plenty of exploring opportunities with rock pools, dunes and dramatic cliffs. Lifeguards are on duty at the beach during peak season and there are a number of car parks, other cafes and amenities. Additionally, the beach is dog-friendly year round - as is The Rockpool. Off of the beach and 300 yards into the sea is Godrevy Island - which is home to a lighthouse that dates back to 1859. The parish town of Hayle is also a short 10-minute drive away, or if you are feeling adventurous, takes just over an hour to walk to from Gwithian. A top Haven holiday park with a seaside bar that 'feels like Ibiza' is also on one of UK's best beaches. Plus, one of the UK's oldest beach bars to open new rooftop terrace in time for summer. 6 The restaurant serves up a 'roast on the coast' Credit: Instagram 6 There is also live music at the venue Credit: Instagram
