We’ve done the math, and the results are in: Chicken and Waffles are the elite tier of brunch.

Belles Hot Chicken are serving up a plate of crispy, golden fried chicken on top of fluffy waffles for just $25, every Saturday and Sunday.

Because we like you (and because it’s the weekend), we’re also throwing in a complimentary Mimosa with every order 😘

POV: It’s the weekend in Brunswick and the vibe is actually immaculate. 🍒

⚡️ THU | SOUNDTRACK: The indie sleaze pop party. Think Arctic Monkeys meets Charli XCX.

⚡️ FRI | TRASH POP: No gatekeeping, just vibes. Pop, indie, and the throwbacks you scream-sing with the besties. 9pm 'til late.

⚡️ SAT | DEADBEAT DISCO: The main event. Pop, electro, and those heavy late-night anthems that keep you moving 'til the lights come on.

Pick your player. Or just do all three. We don't judge.

Sunday: A Survival Guide

If Saturday night won the battle, Sunday at The Penny is here to help you win the war.
We’re providing the holy trinity of recovery:

$15 Pizzas: Cheaper than your bad decisions.

Hydralyte Shots: Because your electrolytes are currently non-existent. 💧

Footy on the Big Screen: Sit still and stare at the grass while you heal.

See you at the bar.
