Very cute restaurant in hunter valley. Honestly wasn’t expecting much because it was the only restaurant in walking distance of where we were staying but we were very impressed from the ambience, service, and the food! The food is on the price side but does make sense for the location and quality. We got the scallops and the burger (unfortunately forgot to take pictures) both very good, and then came back for breakfast to get the salmon bagel and yogurt bowl (pictured). A bit process for breakfast but again, makes sense for the location and they have a very cute patio deck to sit and enjoy

Incredible food and even better service! The steak was perfectly cooked and the sides—especially those crispy potatoes—were a highlight. It’s a great spot for a quality meal with the family. The customer service was excellent and made the whole experience seamless. Highly recommend!

Sat outside with no booking required, although you can book the inside dinning, walked in, quickly grabbed a table in a great setting under the trees in a super chilled and relaxed atmosphere. The food and drinks matched the great setting, service was great, not sure what else I could ask for, will definitely return next trip

Beautiful experience, great service, food, and I liked the pisco sour!! It's just a bit noisy if there a party inside so, we decide to take our food outside where we had a beautiful kangaroos view! A day to remember!

Lucky we made a booking. This place was very packed and no walkins even ~ 3pm. No table service.. need to order at the bar and sometimes the wait time is more than 40min ( which the team were open about)... we were waiting on nuts and olives for like 20min. That said, tried the entree/ starters which were decent. The staff were friendly. It's OK if you are in the area but not worth a drive out. Not missing much.
