Mietta's Review
An old brick building with green window frames and doors. There is a small front room and a larger back room, the left hand side of which is all open kitchen. There is an open fire in winter. The food is sound, using good produce, and smart but not over designed. The wine list is shortish but good, with a decent representation of less expensive local wines. Prices are reasonable. Service, even when busy, is very good and the timing of the food spot on. Highly recommended.

Gourmet Traveller 2005 Restaurant Guide "Chef-lames Loveridge left his heart in rural France, falling in love with the simple bistro food of the wine regions. It shows at this cute little Beechworth bistro - at the centre of a burgeoning wine district. Wine plays a big part in its appeal."
The Foodies' Guide 2004,Allan Campion & Michele Curtis,'Chef James Loveridge set out to make this place a real bistro,very much in the rural French/Mediterranean style utilising regional produce when possible...The wine list is particularly good here'
