The Margaret River Chocolate Company is a popular tourist destination in Western Australia, offering an amazing range of chocolate products and tasty treats. In addition to chocolates and cakes, the factory also serves hot meals, making it a delightful stop for both food and chocolate lovers. Visitors can enjoy free samples of various chocolate varieties and even witness the production process through viewing windows. The hot chocolate is highly recommended, with some claiming it surpasses that of popular coffee chains.
They offer free tastings of their delicious milk and white chocolates—which is always a nice touch. We came here mainly to grab their Salted Caramel Spread and some dark chocolate—both were absolutely worth it! The location is right next to Providore, so it’s easy to visit both places in one stop. You can also enjoy ice cream, coffee, and light snacks at their café. The large backyard area is perfect for kids to run around and explore. A fun and family-friendly destination we’d definitely recommend!

I am usually generous in my ratings but this will be the 1st non 5 star rating. We bought more than $300+ of chocolate n the senior lady cashier who attended to us was pretty rude! Is it because I m an Asian Chinese? Mind you, I m not from mainland China if you are thinking that I am. My passport holds the most wanted in the world. Stop looking at people with racism and like as if I cannot afford the item I was enquiring. My jacket worn alone is already worth more than that amount. Nevertheless, I still paid with a happy smile in front of this senior lady despite her lousy attitude. The younger guy serving us at the cafe was worth mentioning. He was helpful and polite. I m giving you extra stars because of him otherwise is a one star rating. So it’s a 3 star rating this time round. Be courteous in future.

Samples are great! Pretty long standing fixture when you drive by Margaret River. There will be lots to choose from, and it does get busy as it is on a pretty touristy stretch of road. Get what you need and enjoy the free samples of chocs. Get some ice cream for your ride and enjoy your stash on your trip! Staff aren’t as friendly but they are professional.

The Margaret River Chocolate Factory is a spacious and beautiful place to visit, surrounded by lots of trees and open areas. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing — perfect for a break during a trip through the Margaret River region. Inside, there are free chocolate tastings (which our child absolutely loved!), and there’s also a viewing area where you can watch part of the chocolate-making process. Outside, there’s plenty of space for kids to run around and explore. The café offers a wide range of menu options, making it a great spot for both a treat and a light meal. Highly recommended as a family-friendly stop when visiting Margaret River!

If you are travelling through the area then well worth stopping if not only for just a few freebie samples of their delicious chocolate. Within the shop there is every flavour and type of chocolate you could possibly dream of. There is also a viewing area to see how the chocolate is made. Margaret River is all about chocolate and wine, a perfect pairing.

This is our must go place for Chocolates.. Almost all of our chocolates that we give our friends and relatives at home after Perth visits over the past 20 years come from this place The generous samples of white and dark chocolate chips at the entrance is simply a delight for all kids and people of all ages.. The window that allows visitors to witness the making of the different kinds of gourmet produces is also an attraction in the store. Beautiful and sinful chocolates.. We love u
Henry H — Google review
Definitely a great way to finish a drive to Margaret River. Samples at the start, but no dark chocolate to try; Lots to choose from and look at, make sure you grab a basket. Loved that there were Quokka chocolates as we visited Rottnest island last week. Great range of flavours and types to choose from. There’s a liquor chocolate section under the glass cabinet and truffles. There’s also an ice cream stand, a coffee and snacks area, tables to sit at. You can order hot food as well. There are toilets inside. Very happy with our purchases we spent $136 can’t wait to give them all a try. Oh I did eat the macadamia dark chocolate cluster before we left. How cool is the map of Australia in chocolate. They sell providore products like oils, chutneys, jams, pickles, syrups, and lots more condiments. Driving back to our accomodation we realised it’s just 10mins down the road which can be dangerously lol.
Toni D — Google review
The chocolate is delicious, i would say stop in and grab a couple things. Dont bring your kids here if you're looking for something to do though. $15 for a chocolate bar is fine for the quality of chocolate, but we all know your kids dont care about that. Theyll be just as happy (if not more) with kitkats 😂 There's nothing here for them to do other than spend your money and make a mess.

At Gabriel Chocolate, visitors can immerse themselves in the art of chocolate making, from bean collection to onsite production. The showroom offers tantalizing taste tests and a selection of chocolate-inspired gifts. Unlike mass-produced chocolates, Gabriel's offerings boast unique flavors and are reasonably priced. Guests can also indulge in sweets, treats, and coffee-based drinks. The knowledgeable staff ensures a delightful tasting experience for all visitors.
This was our first time visiting Gabriel Chocolate at their new location—and we loved it! They have a lovely outdoor playground where the kids can play while the adults relax with some chocolate or coffee. It’s definitely a must-visit spot for families exploring the Busselton area. Every time we come to Gabriel Chocolate, we always go for their chocolate cookie. Sometimes one just isn’t enough—but I try to limit myself to just one! They also sell a great variety of chocolates made from cacao sourced from different countries. You're sure to find something that suits your taste. We picked up a few bars and, of course, took some chocolate cookies to go. Highly recommended!

We skipped the famous chocolate store next door and came here per recommendation. True enough, the chocolate quality is undeniably good. Locally made in Margaret River, they’re one of the pioneer of bean to bar movement. We particularly loved their Venezuela chocolate products and their dark hot chocolate. Left with lots of chocolates 😊

Awesome chocolate introduction experience by the staff, tasting of various types of chocolates, fantastic place for children with a large outdoor area, very nice place to chill too. So many chocolates, spoilt for choice! Their carrot and chocolate cakes is so so so good!!! Their ice cream, must try! Kids friendly including diaper changing room available!

Stumbled upon this wonderful chocolate shop, and were greeted by friendly and welcoming staff who were more than happy to give us a tasting. The smell when you walk in is incredible. The chocolate is incredibly high quality and tastes amazing. We sat outside and had delicious ice creams, at a very reasonable price. A spot no chocolate lover should miss!
Aimee R — Google review
What an amazing and incredible experience we had. Firstly as a chocolate lover Gabriel’s was the first chocolate place I’ve visited where each chocolate was truly unique and immensely pleasurable. Almost like trying fine wines or coffee tasting. The staff really took it to the next level taking us on a chocolate tasting experience which I’ve never experienced before. Gabriel himself was so friendly and accommodating when I asked for a specific coffee order and as a coffee snob his coffee he is serving (despite not being a coffee shop) was just what the Doctor ordered. Gabriel’s are offering genuinely exceptional chocolate and we came out of there spending a considerable amount on superb chocolate bars which I can’t wait to get stuck into. If you’re a chocolate lover and spending some time down South, 100% go and pay a visit to them. Oh and one more thing. Their home made chocolate chunk cookies are from another planet. What do the kids say….O.M.G!!!! A coffee with one of those is equivalent to business grade heroin it’s so good. Can’t wait to return and thanks Gabriel for such a pleasant experience 👌👌👌

A Truly Exceptional Chocolate Experience – A Must-Visit in Margaret River! Before arriving at Gabriel's Chocolates, we thought it was just another chocolate shop. How wrong we were! This place is a true gem. The chocolates are artisan creations, expertly crafted with unique blends that showcase the origins of the cocoa beans. Each variety has its own story, with the staff eager to share their deep knowledge and passion for high-quality chocolate. The experience is enhanced by their willingness to offer tastings and engage in conversations about their craft. You can truly sense their love for creating something special. And best of all – the chocolate itself is absolutely delicious. Rich, smooth, and full of flavor, it’s unlike anything we’ve had before. If you’re in the Margaret River area, Gabriel's Chocolates is a must-visit. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates the artistry of chocolate and the joy of discovering something truly unique.

Providore is a charming store located near a chocolate shop, offering an array of beautifully arranged products such as jams, olive oils, and giftware. Visitors can also enjoy a glass of wine in the pleasant atmosphere. Customers have praised the flavorful chilli tomato sauce and smoke BBQ sauce available for tasting. The owner's insights into vineyard management added depth to the experience. With friendly staff and picturesque vineyard views, it's an ideal spot for wine tasting and indulging in delicious food samples.
Providore is a gourmet lover’s paradise tucked into the beauty of the Margaret River region. Every time we visit, it’s impossible to leave empty-handed. The shelves are beautifully stocked with a stunning variety of artisan products—from vibrant fruit liqueurs and infused olive oils to syrups. The quality and presentation are exceptional, and the flavors are just as good as they look. One of the standout features is their fresh organic kitchen garden, which you can stroll through right outside. It’s a great touch that showcases just how connected Providore is to the produce they use and sell. The staff were extremely welcoming. The whole experience feels thoughtfully curated and genuinely warm. Whether you're after a gift, something special for your pantry, or just want to enjoy a taste of the region, Providore is always worth the stop

Beautiful Surroundings with their own gardens for their kitchen. The produce and products are well set out on display. The staff are well knowledgeable at the tasting station. I am not a wine drinker so purchased the Sambarino Chocolate Liqueur Espresso Macchiato which comes in different sized bottles.

Located just around the corner from The Margaret River Chocolate Company. The stunning production and tasting centre provides visitors with an opportunity to stroll through kitchen gardens, watch products being made in the kitchens, sample wines, olive oils and fresh produce and then purchase from a huge selection of gourmet foods and gift items.

A Foodie's Heaven in Margaret River! Providore is an absolute gem for anyone who loves good food. They offer a fantastic range of local gourmet products, including mouthwatering condiments, delicious chocolates, and an impressive selection of wines. It’s the kind of place where you walk in for “a quick look” and end up leaving with a basket full of treats! Special shoutout to Sasha for her warm and attentive service, even on a busy Saturday during the school holidays. She made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Can’t wait to come back!

A haven for oils, sauce, condiments, coffee and wine enthusiasts! The store is stocked with rows and rows of products which are made from their factory. It’s extremely open with ample walking space which makes it a very comfortable visit. A must visit if you are in the area and want a nice break from the wine yards! Highly recommend this!
Beverly - — Google review
Lovely place with beautiful views of the vineyards, with products displayed beautifully. Large selection of jams, pickles, chutneys, spreads, sauces and oils as well as wines some cheese and cured meats. I have been coming to the Providore many times over the past 15 years and am very disappointed to see that the amount of tastings have reduced drastically. Just a few years ago you could sample almost all of their products which was absolutely delightful and encouraged me and other customers to purchase their lovely products. Now there were barely 5 or so products available for tasting. No bread to try any of their oils or vinegrettes. Happy they still offer free tasting for their wines and dessert liqueurs and was happy to purchase some. There is a decent amount of parking but not alot. Conveniently located 1 minutes drive from the Chocolate factory.
Kimberly S — Google review
A decent spot for sauce enthusiasts and wine lovers. The sauces are unique, and the wines are good. The garden at the back is a nice touch but feels a bit disconnected from the rest of the place. Worth a visit, but not a must-see. Parking is plentiful. Highly recommend for a quality shopping experience!

Nestled away and about a 10 min stroll from the chocolate factory. Has all those savoury items like garlic olive oil, chilli cheese etc. also has a winery and tasting area for flavoured chocolate liqueurs( AUG 2024). Another visit in May 2025. ( Purchased peach and habanero styled hot sauce) slight kick and peachy. Would go well in a salad, pasta, rice or meat.

Bettenays Margaret River Wine & Nougat is located in Cowaramup, at the heart of the renowned Margaret River wine region. The winery offers a range of high-quality handmade nougat, wines, and liqueurs that make for perfect gifts and souvenirs. Despite a canceled tour, visitors have praised the amazing staff who provided a modified experience with warm hospitality and delicious platters.
We went for the wine tasting with nougat pairings. The wine was delicious and paired excellently with the nougat, plus it was $25 which we found very reasonable considering the setting, quality of the wine and service. Staff were very welcoming and dishes arrived in good time. Would highly recommend if you're in the area!

The location was central to everything we wanted to do and see in the Margaret River area. The chalet itself was very private even though the cellar door and restaurant were a minutes stroll away. The fireplace was a warm and welcoming bonus and we were provided with everything we needed for our 3 day stay. The food and wine at the restaurant is highly recommended, as is the nougat.
Linda D — Google review
It's a beautiful place. The have a wide variety of nougat flavors. They had a buy 4 free 1 and buy 8 free 2 promotion. One downside for me was that the credit card payment. I was charge in my card's local currency instead of AUD which meant my purchase was about $12 AUD more expensive after conversion. The currency conversion follows bank exchange rates which was not as good as my card's rate.

If you are booking the Honeymoon Suite, please be aware that the apartment is located on top of the "restaurant" (or area where people are served food and drinks), and the kitchen. This is not noted on their website or on Booking.com, where we booked this accommodation. We did not feel there was really any privacy or felt comfortable to wait hours until all the customers had left. When this was raised with the Owner, there was no understanding or empathy, and we were angrily told that we "had privacy from 5pm to 10am", which is absurd - not ideal for any couple wanting privacy. Yes, we admit we were very angry at this as we travelled 3.5 hours from Perth to only have to turn around and go straight back home and lost over hundreds of dollars in this booking. We are not saying that this is a deliberate thing they have done, it's just omitted from their website or on Booking.com, because if we had known this information, we definitely would not have booked. This is a lovely location, it's just a real shame that the Owner behaved in such an uncaring and combative manner. Very disappointing unfortunately and not the way we wanted to start our 28-year wedding anniversary.

Vasse Felix is a must! The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable. Florencia prepared a surprise for us and we loved it! What a day! We enjoyed a great wine tasting! Kaitlyn told us everything about those beautiful wines, she was excellent! What a welcome! After that tasting we headed to the restaurant, there Tally welcomed us. We chose the set menu with wine pairing. Every single bite was divine, the wines are gorgeous and both together were just perfect! Simon brought my favourite dish of the day…that scallop was an explosion of flavours…Jo, who took care of us, was great and she guided us through this unforgettable lunch. Can’t thank enough the whole team for making my partner’s birthday special! We’ll definitely come back!

First-time visitor to the Margaret River region and I am so glad I chose to visit Vasse Felix! Ben, my host for the afternoon winery tour and tasting is incredibly knowledgeable, his passion for wine and winemaking was evident as he shared the rich history of the estate and its founders, and the intricacies of the winemaking process. The wine tasting was amazing and I can’t wait to share my favourites with family and friends back home. A very special afternoon, thank you so much! Will definitely come back again.

I nice winery to stop in for some tastings, it will cost you $10 for your tasting. The grounds are beautifully kept and there is a kids play ground and an area to sit outside and have a wine. There is also a gallery you can walk through. There’s pottery you can buy and other pieces other than just wine. I tried the bubbles, and the reds. They were a bit dry for me and not fruity enough but were still enjoyable to try. The lady that served me was very informative and helpful she made me feel comfortable. A nice stop in for me. I loved the bronze kangaroo. The vineyard is well kept and there are some very old vines.

A beautiful Sunday lunch experience here in Cheeky Monkey. We arrived early and was happy to get to sit outdoor. Food choices were not overwhelming. You could scan and order + pay. So, we had time to look through the menu. Love it! Atmosphere was lovely. Food was great, portion was huge. Kids were happy with the play space, while the adults were enjoying good food and good view. Would definitely recommend this place to families, esp those with young kids ❤️

Lunch at Cheeky Monkey Brewing Co. We dropped into Cheeky Monkey for lunch during our wander through Margaret River, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of the trip. The setting is lively and warm, a mix of brewery charm, spacious indoor areas, and relaxed outdoor seating overlooking the dam and gardens. The food hit the mark, generous, and full of flavour, and the share plates were perfect for nibbling while tasting their beers. Speaking of which, the beer selection was excellent, crisp, balanced, and refreshing. We tried a few, and each one was well crafted. The service was friendly and relaxed, and the team clearly knew their beer and menu well. What really seals it is the vibe. It’s not overly refined or fancy, it feels like a place you can drop in any time, stay awhile, and enjoy good food, good beer, and good company. For a casual meal, a stop in between wineries, or just a fun afternoon brew, Cheeky Monkey is a go-to. We’ll definitely return next time we’re in town.

10/10 pork ribs, tender, juicy, I was going in food coma. Chips great and even the salad was good! I love that they indicate which beer best match a specific dish. It took 30/40 minutes but it was full and was worth it in the end. 10/10 I’ll go there again in the near future.

We stopped in for a look and a tasting paddle early in the week and liked it so much we came back later in the week with family for lunch. Both were great days. I can see this place absolutely humming in the spring and summer, would get very busy with families as it’s pretty kid friendly. The beers were all really nice, I’m no connoisseur.. I liked them! Everyone’s meals were good too, and really decent servings. Quick service for food and drinks and the place was really clean.

Nice beers Disappointed that we couldn't choose the beers for the tasting paddles, they are locked into their core range which you can buy anywhere and already know how they are going to taste. The 2 guys pouring could have been a little more personable especially when it was only 20 minutes into opening. Didn't have the food but what we saw looked good The $5 mystery fridge is a bit of fun for takeaways.

We have visited here numerous times for drinks because the playground is great for the kids but this was our first time eating here this weekend. I had the worst chicken parmie I have ever eaten - there were literally just huge squares of ham in the tomato sauce and the chicken also tasted bad - there were no waiters walking around to get anyone’s attention to send it back so the salad and chips ended up being my lunch. The pizza was ok and well you can’t screw up chicken nuggets and chips for the kids!

We ordered a variety of dishes from the tapas menu, and each one exploding with flavour, we especially loved the sauces over each dish, beautifully done.

Pricing is more on the expensive end, but definitely for a good reason, the quality of the food and experience really shine through.

Rustico was recommended by our peers and we were excited to try their degustation menu with wine pairing! The quality of the produce top notch, and the wine pairing for each course was just on point, and the wines were so goooood! We added on some of the accompanying sides and sadly by the last course, we were filled to the brim. We'll definitely come back to try their tapas menu, and savour their wines! Thank you to their lovely staff, Coco and Maureen, whose amazing service made the experience so much more enjoyable too!

We absolutely loved the 5 course tasting menu, every single course was delicious, flavours were absolutely incredible and the grounds shown some of the best views of Margaret River

Amazing food and even better service. Loved how they offered us a blanket because it was chilly outside. The resident doggo Lizzie was also a bonus, she is beautiful and giving her pats made our day. We will definitely be back and this will be our “go-to” spot when in the area :) thanks again for making our experience special.

This place is always great to go to and they do a wine pairing with the meals. I always come here when in Margaret river. They always mix up different menu items and the service and view is really amazing, I would rate this place 5 star but the only problem is that dogs are welcome and they sat one next to my table and it absolutely ruined the experience with dog smell. We moved tables but I don’t think animals should mix with people eating in such a high quality restaurant

A Perfect Long Lunch at Rustico We enjoyed the tapas menu at Rustico, choosing our own selection, and every dish was a standout. The food was exceptionally fresh and beautifully presented, with flavours that truly impressed. The Sherry Mushrooms, in particular, were absolutely heavenly melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The service was friendly and welcoming, adding to what was already a wonderful experience. Our wine tasting before lunch was exceptional and the perfect way to start the afternoon. Rustico delivers on every level, and we can’t fault a thing. A must-visit in Margaret River.

Amazing venue. Great wine tasting, absolutely delicious food, and top service. We had the degustation menu and they did a fabulous vegetarian selection for me. I would give them 6 stars if I could :-)

The Grove Distillery & Brewery is a charming accommodation option that boasts an on-site distillery and cafe, making it the perfect destination for a weekend escape. Guests can enjoy warm apartments that come equipped with fireplaces, BBQs, private hot tubs and stunning views of the surrounding vineyards. The distillery is within walking distance from the accommodations, where visitors can indulge in tastings of various liqueurs and whiskeys.
My fiancé and I stayed in Chalet Cabernet for 3 nights. What a beautiful location! Really quite perfect for what we were after. The accommodation was clean and tidy, there were only two of us so we only had access to the master bedroom so cannot comment on other rooms, but am guessing the cleanliness theme would continue throughout the house. They had a jacuzzi there too which we didn’t use, but am sure it would have been great! We did unfortunately have some issues with the gas fireplace and which Natarsha and her team tried to fix on three attempts, and when we had no luck, they offered us a complimentary platter. The service was absolutely 5 stars for trying to resolve it, couldn’t have asked for better. The only reason we’ve given 4* on the room section is purely because of the fireplace, had this been working it would have been 5* all round. Look forward to coming back again soon!!! Thanks guys!

We had a tasting experience and the Turkish Delight liqueur was amazing 🙌 however, I ordered an espresso martini that was served without the traditional coffee beans representing health, wealth and happiness!!! And when I asked about them I was told they don't do it... despite serving coffee in the next room. Very disappointing and I decided not to purchase Turkish Delight liqueur after the poor attitude at the bar.

Always great, a must do when in Margs. I can never go past the Turkish delight liquor but also really liked the rum ball this time. Great views, excellent service (with a smile) so put it on your list and enjoy some cocktails! Watch out for the crocodiles....

The Grove Distillery, Margaret River I first discovered The Grove Distillery years ago during a winery tour, and it’s quickly become one of my favourite stops in Margaret River. Every time I visit the region, I make sure to swing by as it’s that kind of place you never forget. The setting is inviting and peaceful, surrounded by gum trees and native bush. The distillery building itself is charming and modern, with warm touches of wood and glass. Inside, the tasting room feels cozy but open, with a relaxed atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. The spirits are top quality, beautifully balanced, smooth, and full of character. I especially enjoy their gins and liqueurs, each with distinctly local botanical flavours. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, eager to share stories behind each expression and let you try a few samples. What stands out most is that sense of care and passion. They don’t rush you. Whether you drop in for a quick tasting or linger for a few sips, you feel welcomed. The Grove Distillery isn’t just a destination; it’s a touchpoint of the region’s creative spirit. If you’re in Margaret River and after something a little different from the usual wine trail, this is a must-visit. I always leave with a smile and a bottle or two to take home.

Absolutely beautiful place with the waterfall, bridge and pond. And Elizabeth who served us was so wonderful, humorous and fun! She really made our experience top notch! And the liquors and cocktails were delicious with something for everyone! Would reccomend!

Have tried the espresso martini’s & the Turkish delight liqueur, both very sweet, very strong and sooo delicious, can’t wait to try the rest of my Xmas present order😬😂. Postage was within 10 days to Qld, so fortunately I have time to re-order. Highly recommended!

After a complete screw-up on my part (booking for 2026 without realising), Natasha went above and beyond to sort us out. No chalets available, but instead placed us in the brand new house that was not actually available officially yet. A significant upgrade. Therefore, instead of a disastrous weekend we had a wonderful one. I highly recommend this place - quiet, beautiful, comfortable and the best staff you could wish for (thanks as well to Karl). Great drinks as well, which we sampled daily and took some home.

An excellent place to stay, quiet and restful. The Talk & Taste Tour was very informative and well presented and the tasting part was a great deal of fun. The location is perfect for visiting the northern half of the Capes, Dunsborough and Yalingup. We will definitely be back.

Flutes Restaurant offers a contemporary Australian dining experience in a spacious setting with high ceilings and picturesque river views. Customers can enjoy their meals on the deck or inside, depending on their preference. The menu features a range of delectable dishes, including seafood and soba noodle salad, sesame crusted tuna loin, and ocean trout. The food is described as fantastic, with excellent service provided by the friendly and efficient staff.
We had a wonderful dining experience for lunch on a Sunday at Flutes. From Sarah’s excellent customer service for our booking a month ago to Kirsty’s customer service on the day of dining, the service has been friendly, prompt and responsive. We were pleasantly surprised by the intimate number of diners on our arrival as there were only 3-4 other tables during our 2 hours stay. The venue is gorgeously luscious with greenery from the car park to the hotel entry, and the ground offers breathtaking view of the lake. We had the set menu for 2 adults for 3 course complete with a kids set menu too. The serving time was nicely spaced out with Kirsty checking in often to gauge how we were going. Unfortunately both the beef entree and mains were sold out on the day but we were able to choose different item from the set menu. The interior restaurant is modern and the air con was a welcome relief from the summer heat outside. The presentation was also lovely while the only ‘complaint’ from my kids are there were no chocolate ice cream, only vanilla or raspberry sorbet. The duck leg could also be a bit juicer but this is personal preference only. Overall a wonderful dining experience.

This might just be one of the best set menus I’ve ever had. The food was very generous portion sizes, lots of variety to pick from on the menu, the service and food came out quickly and the food was full of flavour. My first time being here and what a delight! I’m shocked it wasn’t booked out on a Sunday because this will be on the top of my list the next time I visit the area.

Was here for lunch recently. It was quiet on a Monday afternoon. Service was excellent and we got our orders taken. Food turned out to be quite good . We took the set menu as there were good options to choose from . Overall a great experience and I would highly recommend this place. The restaurant overlooks a beautiful lake with lots of birds/ducks etc swimming in the lake.

What an absolutely beautiful property and restaurant. We dined for lunch and the food was exquisitely delicious! The service is fantastic and the restaurant is beautiful sitting out overlooking the dam. We had duck spring rolls and they were generously loaded with beautiful duck meat, as a duck lover I also had the duck for mains, so tender and tasty. Hubby had pasta marinara and again, generous and delicious! Highly recommend.

Had a great lunch here the other day. Beautiful sitting out on the deck and wasn’t too hot; we also had the option of dining inside. We had seafood & soba noodle salad / sesame crusted tuna loin for entrees, and both had ocean trout for mains. All dishes were fantastic and excellent service, gardens well kept and easy to get to. Would love to come back to this place to see what it’s like in the winter and to taste everything else on the menu. Highly recommend!

Lunch on a Monday and it didn’t disappoint. The grounds are beautifully maintained, the Wilyabrup Brook was flowing rapidly and the restaurant warm and welcoming with stunning views on the river. Service was excellent especially as the waitress told us she was quite new. She was pleasant, efficient and very eager to please. The food was delicious with ample serving sizes. We ordered the Charcuterie, the seafood pasta and sticky date and all was delicious. Very enjoyable experience

Wonderful lunch @ Flutes. Kirsty our host was absolutely fantastic. Recommended a great wine (Brookland Reserve Cab Sab) to go with the exceptional food - duck leg - succulent and sublime in taste, only matched by an excellent lamb cutlet (medium rare). A must visit!

Restaurant
Amelia Park Restaurant is an award-winning winery restaurant located at Amelia Park, known for its exceptional lamb and beef dishes. The restaurant also showcases a variety of outstanding produce, including heirloom vegetables and local cheeses. Diners can indulge in wood-grilled wagyu skewers, the signature Amelia Park lamb rack, and smoked Manjimup rainbow trout. Owner and head chef Blair Allen leads the culinary experience at this sophisticated establishment.
We enjoyed an unforgettable meal at Amelia Park Restaurant. The famous lamb shoulder absolutely lived up to its reputation – melt-in-your-mouth perfection! Cauliflower… simply amazing believe it or not! The restaurant was fully packed, which speaks volumes, but it was well worth booking in advance to secure a table. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the selection of great local wines complemented the food beautifully. If you’re a foodie, this place is an absolute must-visit!

We were recommend by multiple friends that we needed to come here. The atmosphere was and food was great and the views from the restaurant was lovely. We enjoyed our meal and wines. Service was promt, warm and attentive. There was no wait for our meals they came quickly even when the restaurant was pretty full for a weekday lunch. I only wished the table we were sat at was slightly larger. There wasn't enough space for us 4 and all our dishes and we felt we were playing tetris trying to fit it all in. Wandered over to the winery next door after lunch to soak in the beautifully manicured grounds.

Boris and Maeve were amazing from the time our large group of mums entered Amelia Park for lunch to the time we left in the late afternoon. Nothing was too much for them and they kept our food for entree main and desert well timed and the food was absolutely outstanding. Thank you Renee for helping set this event up and leaving your impeccable staff in charge we cannot fault the day and will be talking about this for years to come.

Visited Amelia Park Restaurant for lunch (2 couples). Restaurant has a classy vibe and a nice view of the gardens & vineyard beyond. We booked an indoor table as the weather was a bit uncertain, but the outside tables would be perfect on a nice day. Gabriella, our hostess, was very attentive and friendly. My friend's wife was a bit under the weather, and she went the extra mile to see that she was looked after with warm water, ginger, etc. Highly appreciated! For entree we had the "Goats cheese pastry with black truffle" $20 (2 pcs per serve). Texture and fusion of the ingredients was amazing! For mains we had the pan roasted fish $48 (generous portion), Herbed fish wings $38, Smoked duck breast $30 and I had the grilled octopus $32. All dishes were scrumptious. Only negative comment was that the octopus was overly salty, but it was very tender. For dessert we had the "Crème caramel & sticky date" and "Warm chocolate & almond pudding" to share. Both desserts were very delectable! We had chardonnay and merlot to complement the dishes. All in all, a very enjoyable lunch. Would recommend booking well in advance. Tip: Book a wine tasting at the adjoining Amelia Park winery prior to lunch.

Always have a meal when around this region, never disappoints. While a tad rich, the food was delectable and tantalising. Surprise find was the fish wings- fresh, tender with an umami finish. The views are beautiful and we ended off with a wine tasting at Amelia Park Wines.
