About Hog's Breath Cafe Airlie Beach
Welcome to the birthplace of Hog's Breath Cafe! Founded in Airlie Beach in 1989 by Don Algie, this is the ORIGINAL and first Hog's Breath in Australia. Located in the epicentre of the Whitsundays at the top of Airlie Beach's main street, this iconic steakhouse has the old school attitude vibe that makes the brand what it is. With a killer view and stocking local brews, Hog's Breath Cafe is dedicated to staying true to its roots with amazing Hog'spitality. It's all about steak, family, kids, and good vibes! Now celebrating 35 years, new owners JP and Adam (both Hog's Breath Cafe veterans) are revitalizing the restaurant to its former glory, much loved by locals.
