Anerie

Best Known For

Escargot Maitre d’Hotel Burre: escargot with garlic, butter and parsley.

Find a little slice of Europe on Phillip Island at Anerie on Thompson Avenue in Cowes. This French-style bistro exudes stylish charm from the black and white striped chairs to an eclectic mix of art on the walls including a sketch of ‘Anerie’ the donkey; or soak up the island sun alfresco as balmy sea breezes ruffle trees and peruse an authentic menu of classic dishes. Serving lunch and dinner pair a wine with starters like traditional French onion soup and baguette, escargot with garlic, butter and parsley; or housemade turkey, apricot and pistachio terrine. Say bon appetit to mains of pork belly, potato truffade, ratatouille and calvados sauce, or confit duck, roast aubergine, parsnip purée and berry; before an indulgent dessert to finish like crème brûlée, or lemon meringue tart.
