Eat & Drink

Come hungry. Leave impressed.

Around here, good food doesn’t travel far.

From just-caught seafood and farm-fresh produce to award-winning wines, craft beer, local spirits and long lunches with a view, East Gippsland’s food and drink scene is shaped by the people who grow it, make it, pour it and proudly put it on your plate.

Meet local producers, linger at a cellar door, discover a hidden café, pack the perfect picnic or create your own trail through our wineries, breweries and distilleries.

Being Victoria’s first certified ECO Destination means we care just as much about where our food comes from as how good it tastes. Luckily, in East Gippsland, we don’t have to choose.

Whether you’re chasing a good coffee, a great meal or a memorable food adventure, you’ll find plenty of reasons to raise a glass.

Pull up a chair and taste what we’re so #EastGippslandProud of.
