Kalkine’s Global Travel & Leisure Report offers a comprehensive view of the key companies and evolving trends across the travel value chain covering countries including US, Canada, Australia, UK, and New Zealand. This includes airlines, hospitality chains, digital travel platforms, as well as the rapidly growing leisure, entertainment, and gaming segments that are redefining the way people engage with travel experiences.
The Australian restaurant industry forms an important part of the broader hospitality and food service sector, covering a range of dining formats including full-service restaurants, casual dining, fast food, and quick service restaurants (QSR). Dining out is a regular part of Australian lifestyle, with consumers valuing food experiences in social and tourism-related settings. The sector contributes to national income and employment, with the wider hospitality industry recording $66.3 billion in dining-out turnover in FY2025, despite ongoing cost-of-living pressures.
In 2024–25, Australia’s tourism sector continued to support industry activity, with tourism GDP rising 3.8% to $81.1 billion in current price terms. Tourism gross value added (GVA) reached $69.5 billion, while net taxes on tourism-related products stood at $11.6 billion. Cafes, restaurants, and takeaway food services added $0.27 billion in GVA, reflecting their connection with tourism demand. In addition, expenditure on takeaway and restaurant meals increased by $1.0 billion (3.2%) to $32.1 billion, indicating steady growth in food-related tourism spending.

New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland together account for over four-fifths of restaurants in Australia, highlighting the close relationship between urban lifestyles, tourism flows, and sustained dining demand.
Looking forward, the Australian restaurant industry is positioned for moderate yet steady growth over the medium-term:
