We visited as a table of 10 for my Mum's birthday. Booking was easy and service was excellent. No problems to take a cake and staff were happy to put the candles in and bring it to the table. Some may find lunch options a little limited, but our table had no problem ordering. The tofu bowl was delicious and presented beautifully. We enjoyed the seating on the deck, which provided a warm sunny spot even in winter. Enjoy a local wine with lunch, there are a number on their menu.

Friendly service and convenient location. It was really nice sitting outside on the patio. Coffee was pretty good and I really enjoyed my Spicy Bae Roll. It wasn’t that spicy.

The food was well done. We all enjoyed our meals and the kids particularly enjoyed the fish and chips so much so that they asked us to come back for more the next day. The playground just outside helped keeping them entertained while the food was being prepared.

A quiet restaurant located in Hunter Valley Gardens, Ronnie’s is a great place to eat and enjoy some healthy food. They accommodate meal changes if you ask and have fresh pressed juice. There’s shops near by for souvenirs and gifts.

Amazing spot in the Hunter region for a Brekky/brunch. Great food but gets really busy which means long order queues and a bit of a wait to get the food served. But the wait is very worth it as everything we ordered tasted yummmyyy!

This is a beautiful alfresco cafe nestled in Hunter Valley Gardens. I brought my family here for brunch and it absolutely did not disappoint. The pancakes were fluffy and smelled amazing. It was paired with a passion fruit sauce and cream which gave it a sweet tangy taste. Additionally, paired with the berries, it was so refreshing and addictive! The chilli scrambled eggs were also a stunner! The beautiful creamy scrambled eggs were paired with perfectly charred chorizo bits which made it a savoury bomb. There was some chilli oil and mayo around the plate too which added depth to the scrambled eggs. The sourdough toast below was warm yet not tough at all. Also, coffee was obviously the best. Definitely do visit this place is you are around the area!
