We are located in the heart of the Dandenong Ranges just outside Kallista village. Our unique setting attracts both locals and visitors from afar. Our bistro and cellar door serves wine, food and coffee which you can enjoy overlooking Sherbrooke Forest. We have plenty of parking either at the back of the bistro or next to the forest.

If I could rate this place more than 5 stars I would. What a hidden gem! We came for some wine and a meat & cheese platter and everything was exceptional. The venue is gorgeous and has a great atmosphere, and the staff are absolutely lovely. My new favourite place in the area!

Just reopened (again). The current team have it right from the get go. Local gem icon now updated. Lovely fit out. Open fire. Forest location. Great coffee by Isaac. Real food from a professional kitchen. Try the soup. Unlike so many others a real base, not disguised by salt, and a generous serve. Curated Wines to have in or take out. We so missed this local getaway. Well, it’s back and it’s better. Highly commended.
