Food and service were excellent. Best flavours and presentation I’ve experienced in a long time. Only small comment is that the tables for two are too close together; a bit more space between tables would be nice. Otherwise a fantastic experience.

We had the Yuletide lunch menu which was wonderful. The taste, presentation, and quality were first rate. Our server, Julie, was extremely pleasant and attentive while the Hawthorn Dining Room exceeded our expectations. We will be returning in future for other meals.

Seated outside on December 20th, doesn't get better than that! Split a lovely bottle of cab sauv that ended up being at happy hr pricing, both the starters and mains selected were aesthcically beautiful and absolutely delicious.
