At Lido Hospitality Group we aim to bring a little magic into the everyday. We are driven to deliver unique and memorable experiences to every person who steps into one of our venues. We are a hospitality group that believes in doing things differently. We create extraordinary spaces and celebrate human connections.
CEO and Founder, Al McFarland has become a pioneer within the Australian hospitality industry, growing the ever-expanding Lido portfolio to over 8 brands and venues.
“Generally venues that have recently been done up aren’t of great interest. We like to put our angle, our touch, on everything. We are led by opportunities”
Lido strives for excellence in service and we want all our venues to be comfortable. We try not to be a fad. We try not to be too cool. We succeed in building places where people get value for their time and money, whether it’s a fine dining, expensive experience or a very accessible family experience. We strive for value and great service in a comfortable environment, as well as consistency of product.
The New York customer has evolved tremendously over the last 10 years. It’s a very different market. It’s a very evolved market. They have very high expectations, which is a wonderful thing because it pushes us to deliver our best and excite the communities we open our venue in.
