- ***** (Google) Julie Kirk A truely wonderful experience… Russell and Meg welcomed warmly and walked us through the amazing menu … this idealic place is nestled in the hills of Hanging Rock… very quiet and peaceful. As a BYO my party of 10 chose our wines carefully to make sure that they would do respect what we were going to savour … and we were not disappointed. A delicious gravlox trout starter with gin and rum… two ways … followed by the largest sharing platter x 2 or x4 … pearl couscous salad and a beautiful flaky vegetable quiche. Then when we thought we couldn’t we did lol with Belgian Waffles or Tiramisu … yum yum yum followed by a coffee … will we go back !! For sure and then probably again after that. Thank you Russell and Meg :)

- Thank you Russell & Meg for a lovely lunch. Hilary, Des, Marg, Earl & Sammy thought the whole warm smoked trout was amazing! - yes even 13yr old Sammy & she also was the quickest to master the fast debone technique! Lou & Shane really enjoyed the tastes experienced with the shared platter (even Shane who is a bit of a steak & chips guy!). We certainly hope to see you up in the hills sometime in the not too distant future Hillary T. 1st June 2025 - (booking service)
