Mietta's Review
A slightly surreal building dominates this bit of the Kingaroy environs. Inside single malt whiskey and other spirits are distilled and very fairly priced Australian food is conjured up in the kitchen by the well-credentialled chef, Michael Collins. By day simple cafe food is available and at night dinner is served. Great views over the South Burnett Valley. In 06 mains, at dinner, averaged $28.50,
