MOONBI REST STOP

Public BBQ

Moonbi Rest Stop offers weary travellers a quintessential roadside break along the New England Highway. The centrepiece giant chicken sculpture provides the perfect photo opportunity, while the adjacent takeaway shop serves up hearty bacon and egg rolls alongside decent coffee. Covered picnic tables shelter visitors from the elements, though the grassed areas can be patchy with occasional prickles - best avoided by barefoot children and dogs. The facilities include clean public toilets and drinking water, making this a practical pit stop. The neighbouring general store adds convenience, and there's even a welcoming church community for Sunday morning services.
