Best Breakfast In Hunter

You won't believe the incredible scenery we soaked in at The Deck Cafe in Lovedale! Picture this: sitting on the deck, overlooking this tranquil dam surrounded by lush forest—it was like something out of a postcard. And the food? Oh man, it was next level! From the breakfast spread to the tapas menu at lunch and dinner, every dish was a flavor explosion. Seriously, I couldn't get enough! Plus, they had this awesome selection of drinks, including Gartelmann wines and some top-notch coffee. It was one of those experiences that just sticks with you, you know? If you ever find yourself in the area, you've gotta check it out!

Peterson House produces some of the best sparkling wines I've ever had. Zac was an amazing sommelier, teaching us lots of new things about sparkling wine. The property is beautiful and surrounded by stunning views.

After sipping on bubbly, make your way to the Hunter Valley Chocolate Company for some amazing snacks! The chocolate-covered strawberries were to die for, and chocolate pasta noodles were so unusual and yummy!
