The food is always great with amazing flavours & variety. Staff are friendly & very helpful & accomodating. It would be helpful to be able to ring to make bookings as well as online platform. It can be a bit noisy but that can’t be avoided. Many thanks for this lovely venue.

A refreshing space and welcome addition to the Bendigo dining scene. Excellent service and reasonable prices. Recommend making a booking. If you enjoy a glass of bubbles over breakfast then this place is for you. Definitely will be back.

It was a last minute decision to go to The Drawing Room today for lunch, the online booking was so simple, the service and meal were excellent. We were seated immediately and felt we were valued new diners. Our food arrived promptly. We ordered a steak sandwich, which when it arrived was exceptionally different and a delightful meal to remember. Nothing like we had had before. We can totally recommend The DRAWING ROOM to all those who want a delicious dining experience.

First timers, in for breakfast. Wowie! What a spiffingly nice venue. Service with a warm and friendly smile from the outset. Coffee, sublime. Eggs, poached perfectly. And the decor was absolutely top notch. Might have been our first time, certainly won't be our last!

Hi. The food and atmosphere was fantastic and we loved the renovation. The only negative is the noise level. We feel if the music was turned down (the bass was loud) then all the diners would not have to speak so loudly to be able to hear each other. It was hard to hear our other guests at our table. Everyone at our table felt the same.
