Tahbilk Estate Restaurant

Perched on the backwaters of the Tahbilk Billabong, you'll find the Tahbilk Estate Restaurant. The menu reflects Tahbilk’s heritage, people, and values. It focuses on humble ingredients, local produce, modern cooking and sustainable practices.  The menu is a reflection of what we feel best accompanied with Tahbilk wine so all there's left for you to do is to sit back and admire the view.

Close out the day with a stroll through the 8kms of billabong walking tracks, including a shorter walk around the Taungurung Flora trail, in the Tahbilk Wetlands taking the opportunity to photograph the historic long bridge constructed in 1889.
