About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for fine wines
Once the home of Dame Nellie Melba, Coombe Yarra Valley is a property with an unrivalled provenance. Seven acres of stunning gardens and beautifully appointed facilities in the restored motor house and clock tower offer a truly unique gourmet and cultural experience.

Located within the restored motor house and historic clock tower and under the helm of Chef Neil Cunningham, our restaurant serves Contemporary Modern Australian a la carte menu options.

An inspiring selection of seasonal and estate grown produce is on offer for morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea 5 days a week.

The restaurant is modern, spacious yet intimate and overlooks the landscaped market-style courtyard of the beautifully restored facilities. The view from the conservatory is of the Coombe cottage garden ‘avenue’ and gives glimpses of the oldest swimming pool in Victoria.

    Welcoming and friendly staff who provided a wonderful experience for my friends birthday. Thankyou for all the special birthday bubbles, greetings and birthday chocolate which added to the great tasting food, well presented and very delicious. Warming to see so many people enjoying the homestead gardens and we enjoyed the Melba museum. Thank you

    A friend and I booked the garden tour prior to having the three courses. The tour was delightful and the guide clearly loved the place and was professional and well informed. The food was perfection. Both had the barramundi for mains and it was something we continued to think about all day as it was incredible, baked into a soft pillow of lovely moist fish in a creamy but not heavy sauce of little clams and prawns with dill. We chose to enjoy it with the amazing crunchy potatoes. For dessert we had the amazing Peach Melba which was accompanied with divine home made vanilla ice cream. Pastry was beautiful. Again it was moorish without being heavy. Highly recommend!!! Will be back!

    I highly recommend Coombe Yarra Valley. We did the combined garden and house tour with lunch. The tour is fascinating and the food afterwards was really nice. The food was fresh and delicious - recommend the Melba Tart. It is a fascinating piece of Australian history that should not be missed. Overall great value.
