Bendigo’s food scene just got a little better 😉
One of our favourite restaurants has just received a @goodfoodau chef hat! A massive congratulations to the team at @terraebendigo for the incredible food and outstanding service they always produce, this recognition is well deserved. A special shout out also goes to Simon, who was a finalist for the Service Excellence Award.

Terrae is serving up modern European with fresh ingredients. Their seasonal menu celebrates the finest local and regional produce, including fresh ingredients from their own farm’s kitchen gardens and orchard. With pasta house-made daily, this is a must try when you visit.

Nestled into one of Bendigo’s original bank buildings, Terrae celebrates the heritage architecture and stories that come with the building. You can sip cocktails downstairs in the cellar and old bank vaults, or dine upstairs and see a bullet hole shot through the window during a bank robbery in the 1800s.

Terrae is a must visit for any foodie adventure to the Bendigo Region, so be sure to make your reservation now.

And just like that… Bloom After Dark comes to an end.

What a spectacular few nights in Bendigo — when the gardens came alive after dark, the tulips glowed, and the city felt just a little more magical.

We loved having Bloom right on our doorstep at Hotel Ernest, with guests wandering through the gardens, soaking up the colour and making the most of everything Bendigo has to offer.

A huge congratulations to everyone who brought Bloom After Dark to life. What a beautiful way to celebrate spring in Bendigo.

Until next year… 🌷

48 HOURS IN BENDIGO: WHERE TO EAT, DRINK & EXPLORE

Bendigo makes a delicious weekend escape - excellent regional dining, cute cellar doors and unexpectedly beautiful landscapes. Here’s how we spent 48 hours in the region.

DAY ONE

10.30AM — PINK CLIFFS Start at this striking former gold-mining site near Heathcote, where erosion has exposed a landscape of pink, rust and ochre. It’s an easy wander and beautiful in the morning light.

12PM — @silverspoonestate Continue to this off-grid winery for a relaxed lunch overlooking the vines. Owners Peter and Tracie make the experience feel personal, with DIY wine flights tailored to your tastes. Don’t miss the tempura cauliflower, crisp-skinned salmon or shiraz ice cream.

2PM — @shirazrepublic Drop in for a tasting before walking through the nearby Cornella Canola Walk. When the fields are flowering, the vivid yellow landscape is spectacular.

4.30PM — @lakesidehotelbendigo Check in and recharge before dinner. Its lakefront location makes it a convenient base for exploring Bendigo.

7PM — @aliumdining Settle in for an intimate dinner shaped by local produce and thoughtful, contemporary cooking. Warm service and a relaxed room make this the kind of restaurant where you immediately feel at ease.

DAY TWO

9.30AM — @whitbybendigo Ease into Sunday with breakfast overlooking the city. The food is generous and the view makes it worth lingering over another coffee.

11AM — @bendigotramways Step inside the Bloom Tram Café, a vintage Bendigo tram transformed with colourful seasonal florals — a quick but lovely stop between breakfast and lunch.

12.30PM — @terraebendigo Housed inside one of Bendigo’s original bank buildings, Terrae brings together beautiful interiors, personable service and modern cooking that champions the region.

2PM — @greatstupabendigo Finish at the largest Buddhist stupa in the Western world. An unexpected delight.

Save this guide for your next weekend in Bendigo.

I’ve always believed the best restaurants reveal themselves before the first plate arrives. It’s always in the tiny details for me - the warmth of the welcome, the softness of the lighting and the easy rhythm of the room. Those small, almost intangible details shape the entire experience—and at Terrae, the energy felt right from the moment I walked in.

Set within a former 1860s bank in the heart of Bendigo, Terrae, housed within Hotel Ernest is intimate and atmospheric, with a menu that feels refined without slipping into formality. They have done a beautiful job at breathing life into this historic building while retaining its original character.

Under the culinary direction of Tim Foster, the kitchen brings a strong sense of place to the table. His produce-led approach celebrates the seasons, drawing on locally grown ingredients (from their farm where possible) and time-honoured techniques while keeping the cooking fresh.

Handmade pasta is a particular strength, accompanied by a considered wine list that gives Central Victoria plenty of room to shine. But what stayed with me most was that initial feeling: warm service, generous hospitality and a restaurant that knows how to make you feel welcome.

Terrae feels like exactly the kind of restaurant Bendigo deserves—and another reminder of just how exciting the city’s dining scene has become.

Save this one for your next weekend in Bendigo. 🍷

With next months round 4 sold out - it seemed natural to release ROUND 5 — THE FOUNDERS TABLE ✨

There is something rather special about sitting around a table with women who understand what it takes to hold an idea, a vision, a team or a career that matters deeply to them.

Because founding isn’t always about starting a business.

Sometimes it’s founding an idea and having the courage to bring it forward. It’s leading a team and recognising the responsibility that comes with the people who trust you. It’s stepping into a senior role and deciding what kind of leader you want to become. And sometimes, yes, it’s taking that slightly terrifying leap and building something entirely of your own.

The Founders Table brings these people together.

Business owners, senior leaders, managers and professionals from different industries, all with something valuable to contribute to the conversation.

We talk about the ideas that started it all, what keeps us motivated, the realities of holding a team, the decisions that stretch us and the careers and businesses we’re still shaping.

No pitching. No awkward networking. No need to arrive with the biggest title or the most impressive story.

Just good humans, interesting ideas, beautiful food and conversations that don’t always happen in our everyday circles.

Round 5 of The Founders Table
Friday 23 October | 7pm
Terrae Restaurant, Bendigo

If you’ve been wondering whether The Founders Table is for you, perhaps this is your table. 🤎

Bookings are now open.
