DONOVANS: Your May Update

Toastie Challenge Final Week | New Menus | Mother’s Day + More

We’ve officially made it to May, and the calendar’s packed with fresh flavours, family fun, and plenty of DONOVANS goodness!

Here’s what’s happening this month:

Final Week of the Toastie Challenge

It’s the last chance to get your hands on the DONOVANS Toastie Challenge creations!

This week, the boss himself steps up—Matt’s Nan’s Savoury Mince Toastie: hearty savoury mince, melted mozzarella, a fried egg, and a side of HP dipping sauce. Served deli-style with crisps, shaved manchego, and a pickle. It’s comfort food at its finest.

Don’t forget to vote! Help us decide which toastie will earn a spot on The Link’s all-day menu.

New menu magic you’ve been waiting for!

Surf Club:

We’ve been listening—and Chef Matt has delivered! Come see (and taste) what’s new:

Chef Matt’s Seafood Chowder – you asked for it, and it’s finally here to stay! A crowd favourite, now a permanent part of the menu.

Exciting new brekkie additions – think indulgent croissant creations and a Haloumi Fritter Bowl that’s bursting with flavour.

Lunch highlight: Hot Honey Prawns – crispy tempura prawns tossed in a sticky Asian hot honey sauce, served with rice, cucumber salad, sesame, and a drizzle of kewpie mayo.
