Restaurants near Bilpin Springs Lodge

It was our first time at the grounds of Alexandria for lunch at the Potting shed. The ambience was great, the shed is beautifully decorated, the wait staff was welcoming, friendly and gave good service. The dessert, cocktails and the classic dishes were all delicious 10/10 :)

On a very busy morning the service and food was as always spot on It’s a great place to eat and enjoy the surrounds

We have just had the most magnificently tasty Sunday lunch at Margaret. We didn't leave a mouthful of any of the three courses. It took a leisurely two hours which we thought was perfect timing, not rushed but we were not waiting around either. Everything was absolutely delicious. When we are in Sydney from London we now try to eat at Margaret. Previously we have eaten at Rockpool and the grill. Margaret is bright and breezy by comparison. The staff are friendly and efficient. They want to talk about the food and are very helpful with making choices from the extensive menu. The food is outstanding. For us the portions were perfect with wonderful imaginative complex flavours. We went fifty/fifty on the duck breast and grilled ocean trout and both were fantastic. We even had room for a dessert. Out of curiosity I chose the souffle pudding. I would never have thought of putting pine nuts in a dessert but it gave a great contrasting texture. The souffle was really more than I needed but I sacrificed myself and finished it. One staff member confided that although they worked there it was their favourite place to eat. We agree.

I can’t heap enough praise on this little jewel of the Hawkesbury. The food is so authentically Thai, the staff so kind and the ambiance has nice touches of Thailand from the tuktuk outside to the great Asian beer list. Highly recommended.

We had a large booking for the 11:30am christmas day buffet. The staff were amazing, super friendly and cheerful. The food was excellent, a really good variety of christmas meats, sides & salads plus a cold meats selection. A food variety of desserts too. There was live music and face painting. 2 hours was a good length of time. We will definitely do this again.
