Eltham Valley Pantry

Best Known For

Aromatic fish curry, served in a clay pot with Thai-style vegetables and toasted coconut rice (GF).

Take the scenic drive South-west from Byron Bay through the hinterland to discover Eltham Valley’s hidden gem The Pantry, tucked away along Boatharbour Road. Set on a flourishing pecan orchard and landscaped cottage gardens, this 100-year-old restored farmhouse is styled with dark floorboards, cosy cushioned nooks and corrugated iron counters, creating a rustic country chic interior ideal for warming cups of coffee and long lunches. A contemporary menu offers early riser delights like hot hickory smoked salmon, crisp roast potatoes, wilted greens and herbed crème fraiche; or tasty lunch dishes such as a signature pantry and larder ploughman’s platter, featuring housemade relishes and pickles, artisan cheese, cured meats, pantry dips, spiced pecans, grilled vegetables and marinated olives.
