It was reviewed as one of the best places to eat in mornington peninsula "What a superb room: massive windows, blond woods, a long banquette, a pitched-roof conservatory to one side, quality tableware and indoor plants placed just so. It's run by the Ten Minutes by Tractor team down the road, and is great for a date or a low-key drink at the bar"
