At Polperro, dining is shaped by the season and the setting. Our Vineyard Dining menu is a chef-led experience for all reservation guests, while our more casual grazing menu is available for walk-ins only, moving between the lawn in summer and the restaurant deck through winter.

Our holistic approach extends to our onsite restaurant. About a kilometre—as the crow flies—from our ‘Vineyard Dining’ lies Polperro Farm, a certified organic, biodynamic, small-scale regenerative farm. 

A dish may germinate in the field but the first inkling of Chef’s “shopping list” starts up to 12 months in advance. Farmer and chef work hand-in-hand: planning what to sow, preparing beds, germinating seeds, cover cropping, transplanting. 

We grow from our own saved seedbank while championing heirloom varietals and interesting cultivars. And as any gardener will tell you, there’s nothing like nurturing an ingredient from seed to harvest to ensure it will be prepared in a way that honours its integrity. 

This ensures produce is harvested at its peak and eaten at its peak. In high summer we’re able to supply up to 90% of our own fresh produce, slowing to about half in the winter. We like to think of it as a celebration of the land and the nourishment it provides. 

Thanks to its sun-drenched deck and chic dining room with views over the grapevines, Polperro’s daytime charms are undeniable. But this Red Hill winery’s appeal as an evening destination shouldn’t be overlooked. Come nightfall, the open fire is stoked, tapered candles flicker on every table, and spotlights illuminate the ancient gums that shade the vineyard.

An afternoon on The Deck is Polperro at its most iconic.
There’s no need to book—simply wander in, find a table, or sink into a lawn chair beneath the dappled shade of the grand old Angophora trees.

Our Grazing Menu is designed for relaxed, flexible dining—perfect for any appetite, whether you’re after a refined bite or building an abundant spread to share. And where better to snack and sip Polperro and Even Keel wines than overlooking the vines of our Talland Hill vineyard? Whatever your preference, there’s always something equally delicious in the glass to match.

The Deck welcomes guests on a first-come, first-served basis—no bookings required.

Open everyday over the summer trading period— 11.30am-5pm — Wednesday to Sunday during regular trading hours.
