Applejack Chef x Bartender Venue Swap

Applejack Hospitality Chef x Bartender Venue Swap

We’re celebrating creativity and collaboration across all our venues, where our Chefs and Bartenders swap venues to showcase their signature creations this March.

This March, we’re excited to launch a month-long promotion across our venues, pairing our talented chefs and bartenders with partner locations to showcase their signature creations. Our goal is to foster teamwork, share skills, and create unique dining experiences for our guests.

What to expect:
Each venue will partner with a sister location for March. A chef and bartender will create a special menu item for their partner venue’s menu, marked with the creator’s name and home venue. We’ll be featuring these collaborations in a content series throughout the month.

The Venue Pairings:

Taphouse x Forrester’s

The Butler x Bopp & Tone

SoCal x Sandy’s

RAFI North Sydney & URBNSURF x The Botanist
