 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Went today for the Wednesday with 2 other couples for the $55.00 lunch. Value for money 10/10. Our friends who we invited were delighted with the food and surroundings. I had the lamb for entree and pork for mains. Simply amazing. All the other dishes were sensational. This place is worth a try. Also brought wine and joined the wine club. Will be going back.

Our faves are the reserve chardonnay and the shiraz.We attended the Valentines concert with. Group of friends, such a fantastic night!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was my 3rd time at Upper Reach restaurant, and this time I went with friends. The food and wine were absolutely delicious—we ordered a variety of entrées and mains to share, and loved every single dish. The atmosphere is incredible and so peaceful, perfect for a relaxing lunch. The service was outstanding: the staff were very attentive, friendly. Even though it was quite busy, we never felt overlooked or waited long for anything. A wonderful experience all around!

I had previously also been to the Treehouse  on the same property, and the pizza there was excellent too—crispy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection in the woodfire Pizza oven!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 2026 - This winery sits on stunning grounds with a beautifully arranged wine‑tasting cellar, individual bar, restaurant, and plenty of inviting spaces to relax; whether you prefer picnicking on the grass or unwinding at the shaded tables. The overall atmosphere is lovely and perfect for a leisurely day out, and while the wine‑tasting experience itself felt a little subdued and could benefit from some additional seating in the cellar door, the setting more than compensates. It’s also a dog‑friendly spot, and although I’d keep visiting dogs out of the tasting room to ensure everyone feels comfortable, meeting Poppy (the owners’ charming golden retriever) was an absolute delight and added a warm, personal touch to the visit.
