    We had lunch on the balcony and it was such a lovely experience. The chicken antipasto platter was absolutely delicious, the views amazing but the wine had to have been the best. We went to a couple of winterise afterwards and we kept saying the wine at nillumbik estate was our favourite.

    We had a rainy day, but still a lovely venue, and highly recommended when there is lazy Sunday live music. Great spot to graze and chill.

    The wine, pizzas and caprese salad were on point. Family run business and they were lovely. The ambiance was great, with a singer strumming some easy on the ear tunes. There were 9 of us and we all enjoyed it. Will go again:)

    The place was really nice and had great views but not a huge choice on the menu which was disappointing as not a lot to choose from and not everyone wants to eat pizza and also share platters where not a generous size . Probably wouldn’t go back .

    I wasn’t fussed with the white wines but the Shiraz and Pinot noir were too my liking..food was a bit disappointing..we arrived to find out that the lamb platter and pies were not available which left pizza..to be honest the pizza bases looked store bought and tasted that way..the toppings were ok, the staff really nice and the view over the vineyard very nice as well
