After nearly three decades of consistent culinary success, the Northcote hotel's restaurant continues to excel. The cooking is underpinned by superb produce, which often comes from local, biodynamic and organic suppliers or their own kitchen garden. This is fashioned into dishes with distinct, bold flavours, brought together in complementary combinations. The extensive wine list includes some exceptional bottles and a glass-walled "Chef's Table" room lets you in on the action.
