The original Victorian craft brewery. Long before it was trendy to create a boutique beer, the Grand Ridge team were perfecting the craft. Great meals to sample the beer selection. A lovely drive into Mirboo North makes it well worth the trip.

Melbourne good coffee!
Five Senses coffee is paired with local Gippy Milk, and Annie’s free-range eggs from Fish Creek top dishes such as eggs Benedict made with slow-cooked ham hock and sage hollandaise. The all-day breakfast menu features popular plates such as the smoked salmon bruschetta topped with lemon ricotta and house-made pickles, and there are often four or five specials per day to really highlight the best of the season.
The cafe keeps a small larder of products from like-minded brands, including Mt Zero olives, Tonemade dehydrated bone broth from Inverloch, Pana Chocolate and local bottles from Dirty Three Wines and The Wine Farm.

Take a short stroll through the Blue Gum Forest to a viewing area overlooking the falls or relax and enjoy a picnic under the shade of tall blue gums on the grassy banks of the Agnes River.
