Wonderful trip here. So peaceful and not to far away. My child loved it. Great experience

Great place to dip your toe into the water. Easy walk from the carpark.

With the visit when exploring the area. Beautiful views of the falls from the lookout point! Nice picnic area with WCs available. Due to injury we couldn’t explore as much as we would have liked, but there were lots of people walking around the rocks and falls below.

Beautiful place, but can get busy. It's worth spending time walking the creek and appreciating the water polished granite.

Easy walk to the fall from the parking. The view is spectacular and the breeze makes the heat go away. The rocks underneath the water are slippery but with proper shoes it is not too dangerous. A good destination for a day trip, with friends and family or solo trip.

Love these falls. Good chance to do some rock hoping. Had a blast here

A very short walk to view the falls which had l enough water gushing over them to make them look nice when we were there.

Had an awesome time at the Old Beechworth Gaol tour! Graham was a great guide and really knew his stuff/made it super interesting. Loved the Kelly family stories, but also learned heaps about the gaol’s history. Wish there was an opportunity to keep looking after the tour.

We took the kids to the Beechworth Gaol during the school holidays. The tour was well priced and it was easy to book online. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer all of the questions from the group. We highly recommend the tour for all ages. It's a great part of the local history.

fantastic old goal...guided tours run almost every hour and is the only way to checkout the inside of the prison something to remember ...first tour at 10am .. HM Prison Beechworth was built on the site of Beechworth's first stockade. It was designed by Victoria's Public Works Department and constructed using local granite that was quarried with prison labour... Beechworth was one of nine panopticon prisons built in Victoria. Construction began in 1857 and the prison opened in 1860, though was incomplete and only had single cells for 36 prisoners. The capacity doubled when the building was completed in 1864. Beechworth initially housed male and female prisoners. Female prisoners were assigned washing and needlework for government departments. Between 1865 and 1881, eight executions were carried out at the prison.Ned Kelly served six months at the prison in 1870-71 for assault. He was again held there during his committal trial for murder in 1880. Kelly's mother, Ellen and two associates of the Kelly family also served sentences at the prison the late 1870s for the attempted murder of Constable Alexander Fitzpatrick. Twenty suspected sympathisers of Kelly were held in 1879 in an attempt to limit support to the Kelly gang. The prison's iron gates were installed due to fears there may be attempts to break the sympathisers out of the prison.

What a great tour! Very informative and fascinating to know the history. Our guide Peter was fantastic. I could have listened to him talk for hours. If only those walls could talk, we’d know so much more. Definitely a place worth visiting when coming to Beechworth!

Love the hands-on experience of visiting the jail 💗 was a bit cold so we got some food at the cafe and got a very informative book about the prison’s history from the cafe too 📚Love it, will definitely come back next year!!!

The tour guide was awesome, knew his stuff and history and loved telling the story. Gail only closed in the early 2000s so some infamous people looked up here. Kelly History deep with his Mum locked up for a few years.

Beechworth Gaol had not only the Kelly & gang incarcerated here but also Kelly's mentor & tutor - the "gentlemen" Bushranger Harry Power. Somehow Harry Power's tales are subsumed by Ned Kelly's but it is just as interesting. Other inmates here included a whole bunch of modern day tax evaders & Melbourne's infamous underbelly crims. The newer additions include the conjugal visits area in the gaolers yard as you make your way inside on the right & a swimming pool area - gated off on the left. I expected the Gaol to be bigger but it is small with about 110 to 123 inmates capacity. There is the heritage Kelly era wing, the newer ones plus the Hangman's room & the Noose. A group of us - pre-purchased online tix for the 10 am tour Sun 23 Feb recently. A huge crowd of almost 40. The next tour only had a handful - so perhaps this is a better timeslot. Free parking in front of entry gates & also side street. There is a Cafe Truck in the entry yard too & a nice reception re-purposed area & toilets inside before tour starts. Tour ran for 45 mins & Guide thankfully used audio speaker. Typical Oz humour delivered with full on ocker tones- which you wonder if overseas visitors understood. Exercise yard - with the metal mirror (you will find out why) is also the site of 1800s hard labour (breaking granite & carting it), the chain gang tales all made for the grim reality not only the gold rush lawless period but also the 20th century penitentiary system. You get more of the blood & gore penitentiary stories under the pentagonal wooden roofed & similar shaped guard room inside. The replica Kelly gang armour suite is lined up here (by this time it is an oft repeated sight for us having started the Kelly trail at Glenrowan.). For dedicated Ned Kelly & Harry Power stories - do the Ned Kelly Trail tour run by the Visitor's Centre. Beats me how the confined cells & dire deeds of yore can be re-purposed into arts, entertainment & hospitality...Takes it beyond the "dark" tourism into the 21st century enlightenment I suppose. One way of maintaining historical sites like this for future generations but the essence of harsh reality of colonial past would be lost surely. Whatever works to make it a viable site. Pentridge Prison is already a popular re-purposed hub but ..er..rrr..rr - it ain't for me.

This is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited. If you’re going to Beechworth, you can’t miss it! It’s such a lovely spot where you’ll discover a wide variety of honey flavours, honey drinks, honey creams, honey candies, and candles made from 100% beeswax. There’s also a tiny room that feels like a mini museum and a special space where you can write a letter to the bees — it’s especially made for kids, but honestly, it’s irresistible for everyone. You’ll find so many charming little things! Buy Australian honey — support Australian beekeepers! 🐝

You can get Beechworth Honey from most shops, but it is best to go to the "dinkum original" shop here in Beechworth. The shop is large, and full of honey and other produce. It is well worth popping in. Recommended! Thank you.

A must stop in Beachworth! My friends and I spent ages tasting all the different types of honey and never felt rushed. Very passionate, knowledgeable and helpful staff. Wide range of products to get including honey, candles, sparkling honey drinks, lollies, balms and more.

You get to taste different honey flavors. Loved the experience. Lots varieties. Price I would say reasonable as well.

Loads of honey, lovely shop with really helpful friendly staff. You can see bees

Lovely shop, with great service. It’s set up well and has a honey tasting offering. Great place for gifts.

as home nutrition chef i been using beech worth honey one best honey on the market even dou never visited honey experince shop before still using their product always choosing 100 percent pure honey beech worth one best honey to choose from

Came by with my family last week for lunch and the atmosphere was really great. Staff were friendly and helped set us up with the high chair. Beer selection was wide but we were actually very pleasantly surprise with the apple juice + soda water. Refreshing over lunch! Pizza was made well and we loved the thin crust. But burger was a little disappointing - the buns were hard, dense, and cold, and didn’t hold the content of the burger well. It was too big to actually eat in a single bite. Certainly recommend the pizzas and apple juice!

Such an amazing venue! :) The food is amazing, the service is exceptional and the beers are the icing on the cake. If you are in Beechworth and are looking for a place to eat, relax and enjoy some sun, you will have to visit Bridge Road. Thank you kindly to Belinda and all the amazing team. We look forward to dropping in next time we are in Beechworth. Keep well

Fantastic brewery with an excellent tap selection and food menu. Friendly staff, kid friendly and take away beers available. Inside and outside dining options. Playground for the kids with parking on site at the rear

One of the best breweries we have visited this year in our Victorian Beer Passports. The beers are amazing and the pizzas are just as great. The tasting paddles are huge but are the best way to experience the wide range of beers they make. I don't like sours or dark beers usually and yet left with a four pack of their sours and the dark ale. Staff were also lovely. I will be back next time I pass through town.

Excellent laid back pub with an excellent selection of beer, great inviting country vibes, friendly service and delicious pizza! Even though we visited as a couple, I’m still going to give props to the kids menu selection and the play area. The locally brewed ginger beer was delicious, as were the brisket and duck pizzas. Will definitely be back

Fantastic pizza - particularly the hot honey one - incredible!!!! Lovely cozy venue too with the wood fire going.

Awesome selection of beers on tap and heaps more in the fridges behind. Pizzas are yummy with a couple of great vego options. Staff are wonderful and friendly and service was quick. T shirts for sale are cool too. A bit loud on a Friday night of school holidays but that’s to be expected.

Had a great tasting experience and purchased a glass of wine and relaxed in the outdoor courtyard. Highly recommend the Onyx, one to rival any Durif which was taken home Loved the quality of the tasting menu's, the effort that went into providing info on all the wines and being able to mark (draw) what we thought of the wines as we progressed through the tasting. Truly a gem that is solely worth visiting Beechworth for

We were looking for a place to have a quick drink before our meal at Provenance when we stumbled across this cute little wine bar. We sat at the bar and had a quick tasting. The lady that ran us through the tasting was lovely and the wines were fantastic. We ended up getting a small single cheese plate that was incredibly generous and delicious. Any place that has the Will Stud triple cream on the menu is a winner. 😁 We ended up leaving with a bottle of the Quasimodo which is a fantastic drop.

We never skip a visit to El Dorado Road when visiting Beechworth. The wines are fantastic and well priced. Thanks Darcy for such a great tasting this time around. See you again soon! ❤️🍷

Had such an enjoyable experience here. Linda served me and she was kind and knowledgeable about the wines without being pretentious. Super friendly conversation which made the tasting even more enjoyable. Very family friendly, happily hosting my two children and husband. The Shiraz was my favourite, paired with the chocolate bark, was a wonderful way to finish our trip to Beechworth. Highly recommend

This is brilliant! Free wine flight, amazing cheese to add on, delicious wine. Beautiful courtyard and accommodating lovely staff. Will be back. Multiple times probs.

Had a wonderful wine tasting experience with Darcy. Lovely wines. Being in the business i appreciate a good cellar door experience.

Wonderful experience at Eldorado Cellar Door Cantina . Our hosts Darcy and Anna were so welcoming, helpful and friendly . We had a tasting of two wines and chose the perfect one . Plus a delicious non alcoholic Beechworth Honey and Lemon for the designated . We also had delicious snacks including magnificent French cheese, duck pate and mussels . Thanks so much Eldorado Cantina . We will be back !

Phenomenal meal. I am a communications professional who is lost for words to describe how amazing the meal was. In over 14 dishes served there was not one that wasn't perfect. There was a number of dishes I wouldn't have ordered for myself as I wouldn't have thought I would like it, only to have them and realise I was completely wrong as they were spectacular. This restaurant deserves every perfect review they receive.

Stayed overnight and ate in the lounge. Accommodation was excellent. Large well appointed room with a very comfortable bed. Great bathroom, and nice spot to sit outside. The predate yourself provided breakfast was simple but delicious. Had dinner the night before in the lounge. The menu was Japanese inspired but using local ingredients. It concentrated on flavour without trying to be cute or fussy. Great tasting food with excellent choice of wine.

We had the absolute pleasure of dining here on our visit to Bright. The food was well portioned and inventive and well presented. Every dish was made with care and showcased not just produce of the region but the chef’s skill. Staff were helpful and conscientious without being obsequious. The desert was not much to look at but absolutely blew my mind! We will be back!

Very average food for the $170/head set menu and loads of pickled vegetables (which meant my wife couldn’t eat half the dishes even though she mentioned dietary requirements, it often meant she missed a protein dish and just had daikon instead). They are certainly taking advantage of their reputation. Far better modern Japanese interpretations in Daylesford or Bright.

Tried the lounge menu as was not up for the full restaurant menu. Not disappointed as the food was delicious and the Saki excellent. Definitely will be back and the cocktail bar upstairs was excellent with a very laid back vibe and excellent record collection that I want.

Loved the way four little dishes were served in three ensuing bento boxes. Removed that oooh ah of 12 individual dishes. With all those flavors and ideas obs there were going to be things you liked better than other but that seemed to be the culinary journey. Delicious little puddings to finish, as well. It’s expensive and the owner/chef/waiter was a bit off hand but you are there for the food and with luck, good friends, like we were. We had a great time

Splendid accommodation and excellent Japanese based degustation menu. We had a wine and sake pairing and enjoyed every bite and every sip!

What a lovely evening, both waiters on the night were super helpful and answered all my concerns..I am coeliac and I was assured that the restaurant was aware of cross contamination etc. The menu was assuring, I chose the duck and it was beautiful. Print to the main, they brought out some home cooked gluten free bread. Yum..🤤. My husband who is deprived of gluten in the home, enjoyed the rabbit ragu. We shared a gf panna cotta. Beautiful town, lovely restaurant , and great service. 10/10.. and, I was able to purchase a loaf of bread the next day.. thank so much, lynelle

Beautiful place to have a nice romantic dinner while you’re in high country. Small intimate space. The menu is based on lots of local produce to go with local wines. Perfectly cooked, well balanced delicious food. Loved the Rabbit fettuccine and the chestnuts soup.

Really yummy vegetarian gnocchi and native finger lime mocktail was delicious! Staff were awesome and super nice.

We ordered the smoked trout and parfait for entree and Eye fillet & wild rabbit fettuccine for main, they were absolutely phenomenal. We finished the night with the Honey panacotta. If you're in Beechworth and after a good meal please give this restaurant a go, you will not regret it.

Beautiful bistrot in Beechworth. well prepared dishes and service was excellent. We are coming back for Australia Day in a couple weeks time and booked ahead. Review will be updated once we done again but if the first time was anything to go by I’m confident second time around we won’t be disappointed.

We had an amazing anniversary dinner at the Ox and Hound. The food was so delicious, and the service was attentive without being too much. Highly recommend.

Certainly, The Ox and Hound Bistro is a must visit if you are in Beechworth. Very cosy atmosphere, rustic decor, very knowledgeable staff, well crafted menu, large selection of local and imported wines, and delicious dishes. Can highly recommend. The service is timely and all the staff were an absolute pleasure to deal with. We would certainly come back again next time.

Place is easy to find, lots of parking on mainstreet. They have limited seating with a few small tables inside and out. They offer takeaway drinks and lots of sandwiches/sweet treats. The menu is small but has quality items on it. Coffee was nice and so was the food. Staff are friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend a booking. Dogs are allowed outside, and the prices are quite reasonable. Would recommend.

This was my first visit to Beechworth, and it does not disappoint. This cafe/continental store has a broad range of international small goods and Quality wine. We enjoyed our coffee, bacon n cheese toasted roll, peach muffin and apple muffin. The decor is eclectic, a little quirky and some contemporary. ❤️

This place is SO good!! Coffee was so delicious, awesome range of pastries, and the panini’s… I had the ham one - with picked cabbage, house pickled cucumber and, I think, hot mustard - amazing! Great range of wines and spirits, charcuterie stuff.. I could have gone nuts… Would go back here everyday I was in Beechworth…

A group of 11 went for b'fast recently. We had a great time, enjoying the coffee and food. Thanks Peter on behalf of the group from Melbourne Welsh Church.

Enjoyed the best panini here! The staff were very accommodating with food allergies and the atmosphere is so welcoming with a gorgoeus provedore vibe. Highly reccomend a visit if you're in town!

We had the Green Tuscan Soup with Spiced Seeds and a delicious slice of artisan bread with garlic oil. It was VEGAN, so happy with that! Absolutely delicious and this little hot spot is really cute, has a great selection of produce both local and international and has very friendly staff.

Lovely coffee and delicious food. Also a great place to buy some local wines
