Hatted Bendigo dining inside a heritage bank vault, built around house-made pasta and local produce.

Sophisticated yet relaxed fine-dining room inside a restored historic bank, with an atmospheric basement vault and cocktail bar downstairs and a grand-but-intimate main dining space.

Housed in a heritage bank building complete with the original vault used as a dining area and a basement cocktail bar; pasta is handmade on premises; produce and wine are largely locally sourced; attached to the on-site Hotel Ernest.

Authenticity here centres on provenance - locally sourced produce and wine - and on the restored 19th-century bank building's heritage rather than a single national cuisine lineage.

Most diners consider the cost justified by the quality and occasion, though a minority found smaller-than-expected serves or pricey drinks for what was delivered.
