There were 4 of us and we had 8 very high quality well thought out tapas style dishes, 2 serves of french fries, a generous cheese platter, and two great bottles of wine for $200. The pace was liesurely, service thoughtful and style country. All of this is in a beautiful heritage building overlooking quiet country surrounds. Highly recommended.

I have to say - it is well worth the 20 minute drive in the dark out of Stanthorpe for this! The food - to say the least - was some of the best I have had in a very long time. My starter (selection of antipasto) were all local ingredients from the Ballandeean/Stranthorpe region and was absolutely mind blowing. My partner's starter (bread with balsamic and olive oil) was just as deliecious. Baked on site and the oil and balsamic came from a local producer was just incredible. The balsamic was the nicest I have had ever. My main (pork belly) was melt in your mouth fabulous. My partner had the steak and he said it was the best steak he had had in a restaurant ever. He is even more harder to please than fussy old me! He asked for his steak medium rare and it was cooked to perfection. Both the pork belly and the steak came from local farms. Dessert we shared a chocolate and muscat pudding which was just gorgeous (again all local ingredients). I could have eaten two of them! My partner is not a fan of Queensland wines (he is from South Australia) but decided to try their Shiraz and loved it. He said it was on par with the SA wines. This place is an absolute must if you are in the Stanthorpe / Ballandean region.

It is a bit off the beaten track but well worth the visit. Like with many of the places we visitied in Stanthorpe, all of the jams, vinegars, sauces and chutneys are all made on site. Everything we tried was just amazing and we bought a lot more than we had planned to. We did not have dessert but did stay for a coffee and tea - both of which were expertly made. Next time, we are definitely going to have dessert!
