Snow and Pony sounds like my kind of place…read more The space here is rather narrow and it does get really crowded in the peak periods. Just after snow school has started and ended. So pick your time carefully. There aren't a lot of seats and it can be a bit squishy when the yummy mummies insist on pushing little Quinoa and Goji in a pram through the venue. The perks are that the coffee here is really good and the sweet treats offer a decent sugar hit before you hit the slopes again. Ask the staff what's muffin specials are on for the day.

This place is a must for those wanting a seriously sensational dining experience for breakfast,…read morelunch or dinner. It also has a great list of cocktails, wines and other drinks. We dropped in for a cocktail one afternoon after skiing and loved the menu so much we booked in for dinner the following night. They have sharing plates or ordinary serves for those not so inclined to share ( yeah, that person is me). I eat mainly vegan/ vegetarian food and found their options to cater to my wants. I highly recommend the green papaya salad- it's in the "sides" section of the menu but I wished I had of ordered it as a main. It was amazing. Prices are a little high but it is certainly worth it. It's a small place so I would book a table do you don't miss out on this experience Oh, I didn't mention their bombe dessert.... You'll just have to trust me that it's worth the try, just don't eat it alone! It serves a few people

And the setting is cosy and welcoming. What more could you want? We came with our puppy on a sunny September afternoon so sat outside, which was easily accommodated by the waiter. I had the steak, mushroom and red wine pot pie with buttered vegetables and rustic mash. Whilst the husband had the local Bridge Road brewery's beer battered fish and chips and salad. So yummy! We then shared a locally grown apple & berry crumble with vanilla ice cream for dessert. It was divine!! Our waiter was so friendly and after chatting about our little furry friend a couple of times, came back bearing a doggy biscuit treat for the spoilt munchkin. How lovely. We will definitely be back! It's so worth the drive from nearby Bright or Wangaratta for a quaint but delicious country pub lunch. Keep up the amazing work guys!!

A white waiter stopped me right at the door step, with a stern and suspicious face. "What do you want?" I felt quite intimidated, as if I have wandered into a private property. "I just want to have something to eat." I subconsciously squeezed my hands. "Lunch is closed. Dinner only open at 6. We only have coffee and cakes." "I will have a coffee then." The "guard" pointed at the outside, "There are so many people there and they are all waiting for coffee. It will be ages." The message that "You are not welcome here", though unspoken, is loud and clear. I left, never to return.

My daughter and I are getting over the flu and we were looking for a "fry up". Lo and behold as soon as I saw the "huevos rancheros" I didn't need to read any more of the menu.

I've driven past a few times and today I'm delighted that I stopped to try them out. It's breakfast o'clock and there is table service so take a seat and someone is right with you. They get it right with taking a coffee order right away, do I look like I need one? Well I did need one and lucky for everybody it was made promptly and delivered with a smile. Today I chose the Big Breaky Burger. I find it hard not to give these a try everywhere. I noted on the menu some additional ingredients that you won't typically see. This burger was clearly of a higher class. When it arrived (which was surprisingly quick, I guess they are quiet today, but awesome) the presentation was pretty eye catching. I blurted our something stupid and incomprehensible to the waitress. What I meant to say was "that looks awesome" and "thank you". Let's cut to the juice. The coffee is great, smooth with no bitterness! The bacon is delicious, maybe a light smokey flavour and crisped to perfection. The burger is made on a fluffy brioche bun as it should be. The avocado was generous and had a slight lemon flavour like they cared for it delicately begins the scenes. I love this place after one visit! I'll be back, and I'll bring other people. Give it a try!
