What People Are Saying
From the moment we arrived we felt welcome and the food and service from there didn't disappoint. The food is designed to share but can easily be eaten individually. It's absolutely delicious too, everything was cooked to perfection and certainly left us craving more! It's very well priced and great value for what you get & the staff are very knowledgeable whilst being entertaining at the same time.

A friend recommended Paddock and Vine as the best restaurant/bar north of Manly and he was right. Menu is small but everything is so fresh and flavoursome. I was so excited to see they have now introduced cocktails and their wine list has some great choices. I love the ambiance and intimacy and have now taken most of my friends and family. Hard to top Paddock and Vine. It is consistently excellent.

Our new favourite restaurant, the food, atmosphere and service were absolutely outstanding. Highly recommend the halloumi and eggplant share plates as well as the sirloin steak which was cooked sous-vide and melted in the mouth. The staff and owners made the whole evening fantastic, particularly Jules who helped us with our wine selections and dishes (especially the chocolate brownie dessert).
