Come hungry! From cellar door to high tea indulgence, Werribee and Surrounds is a foodie’s dream come true. The region has an excellent brunching and coffee scene, along with great restaurants, wine bars, craft beer hot spots and modern pub fare.

Successive waves of immigration have contributed to an exciting breadth of dining options, especially on Watton Street, where you’ll find handmade cannoli and classic Italian dishes alongside Filipino BBQ and Sri Lankan street food.

Keep an eye out for fresh greens on the menu – chances are, they came from just down the road from the market gardens of Werribee South.

All this and more, just 30 minutes out of Melbourne.
