Eat & Drink at Lavandula

Honouring our European roots and local produce from the Daylesford region.

Seasonal closure

Reopening December 26th

Our on-site eateries take their cues from the seasons, so settle in and make yourself at home

Take your time and savour it. A good meal, a sun-dappled courtyard, a carafe of lavender lemonade, there’s no need to rush here. Linger over lunch with friends, find a quiet spot to read with a coffee, or order another round of wood-fired pizzas.

We’ve designed our spaces so you can tuck in, tune out, and enjoy the farm from your own corner of it.

Take a seat

Slow down, savour the flavours, and fill your basket while you’re here

Our seasonal trattoria serves up fresh, farmhouse fare made to linger over. Prefer picnic on the grass? Stop by the Post Office Deli & Larder for coffee, cake, or a snack to go. And before you leave, pop into the shop for lavender treats and pantry favourites that let you take a little piece of the farm with you.

Plan Your Visit

Maria’s Trattoria

A relaxed dining experience featuring seasonal set lunches and afternoon high teas, crafted with local produce and a healthy dose of lavender. Bookings essential.

Tinetti’s Wine Bar

Rustic, cosy, and oh-so European—serving a curated list of local wines, spritzes, and space to unwind.

Book a Picnic

Pre-order a hamper filled with local cheeses, fresh bread, and lavender treats, then find a shady spot on the lawn and dig in.

Post Office Deli & Larder

Our newest addition. A casual stop for gourmet sandwiches, buttery sausage rolls, and quick bites before or after a farm wander.
