Meal portions were very large, the Honeysuckle chicken schnitzel was as enough for two! Best chicken schnitzel ever. Staff were friendly, only criticism would be that tables needed to be cleaned. Beautiful waterside relaxed atmosphere.

This high tea is situated in a nice setting with gardens, antiques, and nearby cellar doors, and if lucky, there is a hand made market event regularly goes on. The food is nice and service people are very helpful and polite. If coming in summer, better sit inside though view might be not the best, many bugs, flies, mozzies, snakes around the outdoor setting

Absolutely love The Mattara. I am a regular patron (at least twice a month) for both lunch and dinner and the reason for this is the excellent and friendly service I always receive from the dedicated staff. Menu has something for everyone and I&#39;ve never left there feeling hungry. In fact there&#39;s so much left, a doggy bag is always provided. I can highly recommend the Mattara as a family friendly hotel with delicious food and professional bar and food service.  10/10

Good spot for a business dinner. The view over the vineyards at sunset is the main draw. Service was prompt and got the job done. Food was fine, nothing stood out. A bit pricey for what you get, but the location justifies it for a client meeting.

We have eaten here before and tonight we celebrated my birthday.  The summer menu was a treat and I am looking forward to the winter menu. Great service, reasonably priced, good ambience and a little bit posh. We will certainly be back.

Loved that we could find a halal place to eat in the middle of hunter valley.  The food was beyond what we expected.  The raspberry chocolate desert was by far my favourite.  We will definitely come back here with family and friends.

The food and service was amazing. The staff were extremely friendly, chatty and gave off an around happy chill vibe.Meals.were fresh and delivers pretty quickly after ordering. Would happily return.

Been coming here for years. The staff really knows their stuff, especially with the wine list. They always remember what I liked last time and suggest something new that works. Makes it easy to just relax and enjoy the meal.

I hope they pay their waitstaff well. Seemed understaffed and the service staff were run off their feet. Food was fantastic and arrived quite quickly.

The soft shell crab wrap was pretty good, and the Sauvignon Blanc was a nice match. Service was quick.

Solid Thai spot. Ordered the steak, came out well-cooked and decent portion. Service was quick even on a busy trivia night. Food hit the spot without any fuss.

Love that they have a dedicated gluten-free bakery next door. The black forest cake was so fresh, and you can order it right from the cafe.

A local friend suggested this place for coffee, and it was a nice find. It&#39;s always buzzing with locals, which I like. The staff are genuinely friendly and never make you feel rushed, even when it&#39;s packed. Their cakes are a real treat with the coffee.

Been grabbing my morning coffee here for months now. It&#39;s always spot on, never bitter. Staff remember my order, which is a nice touch. Feels like a proper local spot where everyone knows each other.

I pop in for their coffee and toasties all the time. It&#39;s my go-to for a quick catch-up with friends. The vibe is so chill, you can just hang out for ages. Staff are always lovely.

Had a late lunch here. The staff were really friendly, helped us move to a table with a better view when we asked. Made the whole thing feel easy.

Love that they don&#39;t use MSG. The freshness of the ingredients really comes through, especially in the green curry and the papaya salad. You can tell the veggies are crisp and just-picked.

Mount Broke Wines has everything you could ask for in Broke. The beautiful wine, pizzas, view, atmosphere, the list goes on.. the staff were all lovely and I&rsquo;m looking forward to going back soon!

We love the Icon - great view, huge portions. We got the pad thai and the massaman curry worh rice and spring rolls. Excellent! Would recommend for sure.

Highly recommend this lovely place. Coffee is great. Food is delicious and staff are welcoming, friendly and helpful. They are now licensed too. We love it.

Second time here, menu&#39;s got good variety. Tried the Nasi Goreng again, solid choice. Service was quick, staff attentive. The open layout works well for a business lunch.

So many gluten-free options on the menu! As someone who needs them, it&#39;s a relief to have real choices beyond just a salad. The gluten-free pasta was actually really good, not dry or crumbly at all. Felt like a normal dinner out for once.

As always Emersons food was brilliant, and staff make it a most enjoyable experience. Us Queenslanders will be back whenever we can. It was great to see a beautiful family celebrating the grandmothers 80th birthday.

The staff were very welcoming and understood the customers needs as required for the ambience of the occasion. The service was first class measured with the service of each meal.

We were really happy with service &amp; meals.  The staff were really helpful &amp; accommodating. Good value for money, all our meals were lovely &amp; the steaks were cooked perfectly.
