Terrae is located in Bendigo, a UNESCO City of Gastronomy recognising the region’s diverse food culture and the community’s commitment to all things food!

Terrae is a 60 seat, refined European inspired restaurant with a subterranean Cellar Bar for 40 people. Our food reflects the seasons, the region & what is growing in our kitchen gardens on our 25 acre farm. We are not bound by tradition but take inspiration from classic methods of cookery and bring our menu to life with contemporary ideas and presentation.

Our beverage offering is similarly diverse showcasing the brewers, winemakers and distillers in Victoria along with an interesting selection of wines from other wine regions within Australia and overseas.
