The food is delicious, well considered but seemingly simple that is the star. It is hard to pick a stand out and it depends on your tastes or what you are feeling like but the Vietnamese Omelette with Five Spice Pork Belly was a stand out. If you are into a hot roast beef roll, their version is one that is hard to beat. The Cauliflower and Hummus Bowl is a vegetarian dream of deliciousness and the Pea and Ham Eggs is a must especially for pea lovers like myself.

Daylesford Cider produce a range of craft ciders made using the 17 varieties of English-heritage listed cider apples they grow organically here on the farm just outside Daylesford. They have proudly picked up a number of medals across our entire range of ciders and look forward to sharing these with you soon at our English-style tavern cellar-door.
I recommend trying their $15 paddleboard with a lovely selection of their ciders and a wood-fired pizza. The Daylesford Cider Company is located in stunning grounds of a large farm style house. A great way to spend a sunny day. You can always call a local taxi if no one would like to be the designated driver.
