Restaurants near Illoura

We absolutely loved the food and the staff were fabulous. Our only criticism would be the music was so loud we could barely hear ourselves talk .

Great food, great service, and a really hot waiter!

Booked a table for 2 for my partners birthday. Arrived & enjoyed a beverage at the front bar. The ambience was really inviting & friendly not to mention the beautiful bar. The barman was very professional, courteous & patient. He also added our drinks to our restaurant bill. Great variety of beers (including hand pumped which my partner loves, though he said they were too cold for hand pumped) & wines (for myself as I don’t drink beer). We sat at the front bar & enjoyed our drink then we were taken through to the restaurant to our table. I struggle with noise (I know, why would I expose myself to this if I can’t do noise!!! Because it was my partners birthday & he loves Farmers Arms so I put my big girl pants on & stepped right in). At a table near ours was a groups of women who were enjoying their time together & voicing their glee (great for them not so great for me). I politely asked the wait staff if we could move to a quieter area & were accommodated quickly & without question or fuss. Thank you. It allowed me (us) to enjoy my (our) evening & not wreck the ambiance for me (us) or the women. We shared a slow cooked lamb shoulder dish with cabbage for 2 which was on the specials for the night & a side of pumpkin & sage (delicious). The food did not disappoint & was exceptionally tasty. We finished off with a cheese board which was also delicious. We’ll be back again. Thank you.

Food was excellent, coffee even better. Service was friendly and there was a welcoming fire in the fireplace. The place to go in Daylesford.
