Other published opinions

Courier Mail Food and Wine Guide 2009 Queensland "Breakfast and lunch only, but a beautiful setting in the long-established gardens at Pialligo Plant Farm"

Age Good Food Guide 2009 "It's a beautiful setting, in an old weatherboard cottage nestled in a plant nursery, and it's matched by Andrew Haskins' deft contempora menu"

Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide 2009 Score: 13.5/20 "We have to love a restaurant with a freshly picked rose on every table, labelled with its full name. What else would you expect in a nursery? Yes, that's where you'll find this delightful weatherboard 1930s cottage, with its wisteria-covered veranda"

Canberra Times Catriona Jackson, Eat Out, 10-10-07 Score: 14/20 "Pocifood is one of the nicest places in Canberra to visit for a sunny lunch or breakfast, inside or out in the lush garden. The food is high quality and modern in approach."

Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide 2008 Score: 13.5/20 "Nestled inside a nursery (for plants, not kids) three minutes from the airport, pod food is a casual but classy eatery, where chef Andrew Haskins gives a fresh look to classic dishes"

Canberra Times Catriona Jackson, 1-03-06 "A uniquely Canberra establishment, it inhabits the curious little pocket of rural Canberra right opposite the airport that houses the capital's best nurseries and organic apple orchards. Up till now eating there has not been a big focus: that was until one of Canberra's most-loved chefs, Andrew Haskins (previously of the Fig), decided it was time to return to food."

Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide 2007 Score: 14/20 "Tucked into the curious little rural enclave that houses Canberra's apple orchards and nurseries opposite the airport, this casual eatery has real class. Weekly menu changes ensure seasonality, and very keen service makes you feel welcome."
