T2 has partnered with Nine Entertainment, The Age, and The Sydney Morning Herald as co-presenting partner of the Good Food Guide and Awards.
The Good Food Guide is home of the renowned Chef’s Hat awards, and has honoured Australia’s best restaurants and hospitality venues for more than 40 years.
The 2026 Guides feature more than 900 independent reviews of the best cafés, restaurants, bars, and pubs in Victoria, New South Wales, and the Australian Capital Territory.
T2 Managing Director Christelle Young says the tea brand is excited to contribute to this much-anticipated annual celebration of Australia’s hospitality industry.
“We’re thrilled to be the co-presenting partner of the Good Food Guide and Awards,” says Christelle. “At T2, we believe life is too short for ordinary – everyday rituals deserve to be extraordinary.
“The Good Food Guide shares that same passion for elevating the everyday through creativity, artistry, and connection. Together, we’re celebrating the flavours, stories, and experiences that make Australia’s food and drink culture so vibrant.”
In 2025, South Melbourne café Moon Mart and Marrickville’s Ona Coffee were named Victoria’s and New South Wales’ Café of the Year respectively, joining previous winners including Happyfields (Haberfield, 2024), and Lorna (Ferntree Gully, 2023).
