    What a phenomenal experience. The venue is stunning, the service was incredible, the food blew us away-we did the à la carte menu and everything was delicious and perfect portion size. The Chef went above and beyond to make my birthday one to remember with a delicious desert. The Kids play area is also great, shaded and safe, we didn't have to worry about the kids at all allowing everyone to enjoy their meal. The animal pen was also a great hit with the kids. I would highly recommend Melfort.

    Lovely rustic winefarm. Casual dining in a very relaxed environment. Sunday lunch set menu is lovely. Will definitely be back as the menu changes monthly.

    The food was amazing. We celebrated our wedding anniversary and the experience was superb. We were welcomed by the two farm hounds and greeted at the door with friendly faces. As we walked to our table, we were congratulated by every staff member. We felt like the Royal party :-) My favourite dish was the cape bream sashimi and the suprize vegetable dumpling course. Ps, this should make it to a full course. The flavours were amazing. Super food, staff so well informed on the menu, service with a smile.... and the portions so generous, we left very satisfied. This is a must if you love food experiences!
