Little by Little
This is my go-to cafe in Berwick.
The coffee is always good and they also share interesting information about each blend.
My pick for breakfast is the acai bowl topped with fresh seasonal fruit.
2-10 Reserve St, Berwick
Nomadic
A great all-round menu that showcases local produce. I particularly love their amazing bread and pastries that are all baked fresh in house — perfect to grab when you’re on the go.
74 High St, Berwick
Zagames
For sports enthusiasts, this is the perfect place for watching any live game, any time of the day.
The bar menu will also sort you out with great food and drinks to graze on while you’re watching.

Nice Buns by YOMG
A burger shop that only opened this year but already proving to be very popular for locals. The space has been beautifully designed and is the ideal spot for a hearty feed.
If you’re hungry go for The Kingsway burger — double beef and double cheese — alongside a side of mac and cheese bites.
1/260 Clyde Rd, Berwick
O.MY
This is an award-winning restaurant in Beaconsfield (currently ranked 15 in the delicious. 100 list of Victoria’s top 100 restaurants) that is the perfect spot to celebrate a special occasion.
The menus change regularly depending on what is in season and available from their amazing garden. Be sure to book in advance so you are not disappointed!
23 Woods St, Beaconsfield
Little Miss Hangry
A breaky and lunch spot everyone should add to their dining list.
I can’t go past the smoothie bowls here, especially on a warm day.
They’re refreshing and surprisingly very filling!
101a Main St, Garfield
Robert Gordon Pottery and Kitchen
This is our go-to place for all the crockery in our business.
Now you can also have an awesome meal in their new kitchen area after spending time discussing new plates with Sam and Bobby.
They use real fresh potatoes for their chips and Bobby’s burger is a winner. The Pies from Wonder Pies are a must, too!
114 Mulcachy Rd, Pakenham
Daydreamers Cafe
A great breakfast place with a nice outdoor area for friendly catch-ups and business meetings. The lamb benedict is my go to dish to start the day.
