The magnificent Stamford Park Homestead was built in 1882 by the entrepreneurial Row family as a Gentleman’s Residence. After many years of neglect, the homestead and six acres of grounds have been aesthetically restored, allowing it to once again become the ‘Jewel in Knox City’.

Stamford Parks current custodians, have waved their ‘whimsical’ magic of both design and true hospitality over the beautiful estate and it is now a stunning property serving the public for what it was originally intended – a place to gather, meet, entertain and unwind.

    We decided to try out the Stamford Park Homestead for dinner. We were greeted by a friendly front of house staff member who showed us promptly to our table. The ambience of the room was nice with some interesting details in the room, some of which did not fit the style of the homestead. Our drinks were ordered and received rather quickly which we were rather impressed by. Our entree was nice but nothing to write home about. I ordered a Hawaiian pizza which was nice. My partner ordered the chicken parmigiana which was dry and chewy and not pleasant to eat. Lastly we had an apple tartar tan which initially looked okay but at first taste was of nothing but caramel. The apple portion was covered in caramel sauce and the pastry was not how it should be. We decided to leave and I personally spoke to the same front of house staff who was apologetic. This person thanked us for the feedback as they (front of house staff) don’t get to taste the food they are serving. This staff member said that he would get the manager to come out so we could discuss our feedback and then the FOH staff came out a minute later without the manager and said that they would compensate us by not charging us for the parmigiana and the dessert. As we were appreciative of the discount, we expect that the manager would talk to us about the feedback. Very disappointed by this lack of caring for the establishment that they manage. Won’t be going back.

    Steak was delicious however slightly over the medium rare. 3 of us ordered the same meal and all the steaks were more medium rather than medium rare. Staff very friendly & lovely venue.

    Food was good and beyond our expectation despite the crowd. Place was overcrowded with too much noise. Overall was a good experience esp during Christmas.

    Pizza was fantastic as usual, but our Chicken Parma's seemed a little off in taste and texture, plus the chips were soaked in fat and overcooked - really bad and we left most of it. Plates and cutlery skidded all over the place on the table (outdoors) and the tables wobbled a lot, so wasn't a great dining experience overall.

    Walking in a lovely venue but I feel it has become too big too soon. Food was pleasant but could have been better presented for the price. My husband and I had the bruschetta, could have added basil for flavour, for starters followed by duck this could have looked better presented, then tiramisu and lemon tart which I would say was not made on site. I ordered a cafe lait and enquired as to when it was coming with a reply did I really want it. I didn't want to put them to any trouble.

    Great food and very good service. I would like to see a bigger range of desserts offered. The Flamenco night wasn’t as good as their other entertaining evenings. However others may have enjoyed it. We have been to the Homestead several times and it is a lovely venue with excellent staff and food. Definitely recommend a visit.

    A hidden gem in Rowville. We booked the Senes Flamenco show AND IT WAS FREE!!! For the normal cost of a meal the Homestead puts on great shows to enjoy while you eat. They utilise the function room for this treat so you need specifically book the event - easy to do on the website. Other indoor or outdoor options are available. Food and drinks were amazing. Recommendations for the Black Pie (pizza), Lime, Sods and bitters drink and the mashed potato is divine.
