About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
New kid on the block, Betel Boy is serving you inspired pan asian food & cocktails in a contemporary and energetic venue, located on the iconic main street of Daylesford, Victoria. At the helm, Head Chef Chris combines thoughtfully sourced ingredients supplied by regional growers with his talent for Thai flavours and the result is some truly delicious fair. Sticky Bao Buns, drunk dumplings, sour salads top the menu. Wash it down with a Daylesford beer on tap, a cheeky cocktail or choose from the extensive wine list featuring local growers. Step in and be seduced by the vibe and surrounds of a considered space and service that makes you feel like you’ve been going there for years. Afterwards you can slip out the back to Boy-Bar, where the music is a little louder and the cocktails a little stronger.

    Food was good but not exceptional. Looked like they were short staffed so not the attention to detail we would have expected. Nothing else in Daylesford like it so yes we will be back for a 2nd try.

    I would have tried everything on the menu. But the Beef Brisket curry was probably one of the best I’ve ever tried.

    Really enjoyed our meal Friday night. Tasty and fresh ingredients and attentive service. Prices reasonable for what you get - the mains are generous and plentiful to share with some starters and a side. The dumplings were soft and delicious, massaman curry had well balanced flavours.

    The food was tasty. I would say they are an 8/10. A few tweaks and I would they deserve 10/10. Our waiter who served us on the night was a smoker and his smoky breath is not something I want going up my nose when seeking advice. Please do something about that before your next shift. I noticed the floor hadn’t been well swept after lunch, something that can’t be unseen. An indicator of a lack of attention to detail. Please straighten up the bar stools to they are uniform.
