A Unique, Private Dining Experience

Enjoy our private room with views of the rolling Barossa Ranges and vineyards so close you are immersed in our stunning countryside. This room is available for tables of 16 to 20 guests, with complimentary sparkling wine on arrival. The room is fully accessible, and we can independently control the music level and temperature to ensure your family is comfortable.

Children of any age are welcome to dine in Essen at $30 per guest on Father's Day. If needed, please ensure you request a highchair at the time of booking.

A Gift to Make the Day Extra Special

As a token of appreciation, all reservations made by August 15th will be entered into a draw to win a six-pack of Artisans of Barossa Blanc de Blanc. This exquisite prize will be a surprise gift to one lucky dad on the day, adding an extra layer of excitement to the celebration. This is the same extraordinary gift we offered on Mother's Day—a thoughtful gesture to make Father's Day even more memorable.
