While being a full blown restaurant I can only speak for the desserts available. Oh my goodness my arteries a clogged with the amazing loveliness of icecream and caramel. It's a pretty hot one on the weekend, as the country seems to hold its heat quite well late into the evening. The group and I decided that icecream was the go, but were after a sit down sort of place instead of the simple number in the cone. The restaurant is a wonderful space that feel cool and refreshing the moment you enter, then your hearts are warmed by the friendly nature of your hosts, albeit a little shy and not forthcoming with information about the town. Home Made Caramel Ice Cream Have you never seen such beautiful words. It melted in your mouth perfectly and I began to eat so quickly I felt an ice cream headache coming on. But was it worth it! Being a restaurant they have a full menu of Modern Australian Cuisine complete with large serving sizes and complementing wines.

Yeah, this place was actually pretty good, and they certainly had a great selection of beers available that happened to be on tap.

Oh, and the beers, well, the beers were pretty amazing as well, particularly since you could also get a mix and match, which I thought was pretty cool.

For its time and place, just what we needed. We stumbled…read moreupon this place while exploring the Cute little town of Beechworth, Victoria. Down an alley into the yard with picnic tables and into the barn with a nice bar and two levels of eating area. As in keeping with Australian custom, one has to order drinks and food at the bar. Drinks you Carry back, food they bring out when ready. Numerous pizzas, sandwiches, ribbs...what you'd expect at a brewpub. We had two different brews, mine a nice IPA, wife's a Pilsner, and were both happy. We also had a pizza with tomato sauce, apples, rocket greens and Blue Cheese crumbles which was tasty. Also, the thin crust was nicely crisp and easy to pick up and eat, unlike any other pizza I've had in AU. In addition to lots of seating inside there was plenty outside, some covered by umbrellas, some open. There was a large children's play area which was well attended. The clean Rest rooms were M, F & Handicapped. Highly recommend. Humorously, they list "Italian Style Pizza". I wonder what style pizza they are differentiating from? I suppose Hawaiian or something? We do have Greek style in RI but... sorry, just felt a need to say that.

When something like a local bakery can turn itself into a successful franchise in two other…read morelocations, it's a sure sign that a place like the Beechworth Bakery is more of an institution than a business. Everyone working appears happy as they frantically serve the countless customers that can be seen to be regulars in a Saturday morning. Offering a wonderful selection of baked goods - savory and sweet and loaves and more - every occasion can be met by the abilities of the bakery folk. We chose to sit up stairs to view the morning street from the balcony. The food orders come with those crazy flashing timers that beep and flash when your food is ready, making it feel a little like a pub or a bistro. The Turkish bread masterpiece we got warned were delightful and the coffee, albeit taking its time in being made, was the perfect breakfast kind.

Well first thing I spot when I drive into town was Blynzz, a family coffee roasting business that pump out a pretty mean long black. They offer up two single origin choices for your long/short/macchiatos, on my visit they were from Kenya and Peru. There's also a blend for your milk based coffees. There is a breakfast and treat menu for those that would like some food with their hit, but I didn't try this so can't comment. You can pick up a bag of their beans or some monsieur truffle chocolate which looks divine and totally indulgent. An air conditioned oasis in the heart of gold country. Sometimes leaving the city isn't a bad thing.

You can tell right away it is a family run business. Teenage son working as waiter and cashier, dad or uncle cooking and serving food and the younger daughter watching her pre-teen shows in the public dinning area. Very few customers this night as the weather was cold and wet. But the service was less than desirable, the teenage son sat us down and pretty much provided petty service. Forgetting everything from menus to water. Guess he was more happy standing behind the cash register day dreaming. When we finally we able to order, we ordered the meal for 2, as it was just my husband and I. Happy to say the food was out rather fast. But presentation wise, we were not impressed. The meal for 2 looked more like a meal for 1. They really did portion control here! Taste of the 3 different curries were heavy lacking any taste desirable. Utterly disappointing! Rice was too plain, and the naan was burnt. Doubt we'll be returning.

Just like mum used to make - bread not too thick, meat nice and pickled, additions a plenty but not overbearing. Winners all round, I went back the next day to try the coffee. Sadly not my favourite. Oh well, can't be good at everything.
