Best Lunch Restaurants in Panton Hill

Coombe is an absolute gem! The Devonshire tea would have to be the best value in Melbourne. $15 per person for bottomless tea and coffee, two large fluffy, perfect scones, served with delicious peach Melba jam and divine double cream is extraordinary. Architecturally, this building is quite intriguing. Enormous windows to enjoy the beautiful trees and dappled sunlight, stylish wave-shaped batten ceilings, skylit panels, and second hand red bricks walls create a feeling of warmth and luxury. The service is exceptional - always aware, but never intruding. Looking forward to our next visit already!

One of the last great pubs with good old fashioned ways ie. bouncers aren't losers, no pokies, good nice crowd of young and old together, helpful friendly staff, nice food and a large array of drink choices.

As always, our outing to Bridges was excellent. Our waitress, Ella, was her normal bubbly, happy self. The food was up to its normal high standard.

We had lunch on the balcony and it was such a lovely experience. The chicken antipasto platter was absolutely delicious, the views amazing but the wine had to have been the best. We went to a couple of winterise afterwards and we kept saying the wine at nillumbik estate was our favourite.

The whole experience was memorable. The service was excellent and the food was unusual and well presented. Sitting under an umbrella out on the terrace looking out over the roses to acres of grapevines and the distant Yarra Ranges made me feel as if I was in Italy. Almost perfect!
