Basq Essendon Fields

Best Known For

Turkish spiced char-grilled lamb backstrap skewer with minted yoghurt, chickpea stew, pita bread and salad.

Inspired by Napa Valley’s rolling hills and verdant vineyards, Basq on Wirraway Road brings a new dining destination to Essendon Fields. Whether stopping in for a coffee break or lingering over a long lunch, take time to relax in Basq’s rustic interior of stacked stone, wood panelling, circular pendents and potted palms, ideal for catch-ups and celebrations. Savour each mouthful and sip as you forget about time for awhile and delve into breaky tempters like baked eggs, roasted tomatoes, cured pork belly, mixed peppers, spring onion and char-grilled sourdough. A lively lunch crowd pairs an ice-cold glass of white wine with plates of crispy calamari, lemon myrtle mayo and squid ink crackers, while the inner carnivore opts for perfectly cooked striploin, served with chips and bearnaise sauce.
