Yarra Valley Restaurants

Whether you are looking for a cosy spot in the countryside or a hip spot in the city, you will find it all in the Yarra Valley. It’s possible you will end up tucking into freshly baked scones and Devonshire tea, or a savoury or sweet treat from one of the many local bakeries and coffee shops. Yarra Valley is a world-class wine region and boasts some fantastic Chardonnays and Shiraz. It is also known for its quality restaurants serving excellent food to accompany the delicious wines.
