Mietta's Review
The front room is shrine to the VW beetle that doubles as a cafe serving modern Australian food from salad Nicoise to laksa via woodfired pizzas. The back room is dedicated purely to dining. Since it opened early this century, Beetle Nutt has become an important part of the lovely little historic town in the Canberra wine region.
Other published opinions
Sydney Cheap Eats 2005 "The rustic exterior of this cafe/pizzeria/restaurant belies the quirky, comfortable interior with a large woodfired oven dominating one room, and VW memorabilia galore."
Daily Telgraph NSW Restaurant Guide 2004, Sally Petersons and Galia Lowe are such Volkswagen fanatics that they called their restaurant, in an early 1900s building, Beetle Nutt.
June 2001 Canberra Times, "A quirky cafe that chaotically combines a range of different styles of food and can get away with it"

A very pleasant excursion from Canberra. The old flour mill is a solid, beautifully constructed building with a wide verandah, ideal for lunches
