PikNik

Best Known For

Calamari Salad: flash-fried calamari, Spanish onion, garlic, fresh chilli, kipfler potatoes, chorizo, spinach and citrus mayo.

Starting out as a market stall selling produce that had been ‘picked and nicked’ from local farms, PikNik on Queenscliff Road in Swan Bay is now a well-loved dining destination for locals and visitors alike. Housed in an invitingly converted roadhouse and serving the very best produce the Bellarine Peninsula has to offer, sit a spell and sip a glass of local Pinot Noir with a slow braise, or pair a Vietnamese chicken salad with a crisp Riesling. Whether breakfast, lunch or something in between, there is a dish to tempt all tastes – think slow-baked lamb, Greek salad, tzatziki, fried kipfler potatoes and flatbread, or a beef burger and fried potatoes. For an indulgent finish, try a slice of housemade cake; don’t forget to check out the jams and preserves on offer to take home with you.
