Regional Produce
As members of the Canberra Slow Food Convivium, we take our produce seriously. Our seasonal menus feature produce from our gardens and local suppliers including Kiah free range eggs, La Barre olive oil and Art of Espresso coffee.
Quality meats
We are great fans of Galloway beef – local studs Honeypot Farm and Minto Stud produce beef to our specifications and the wonderful team at Harden Butchery produce our gluten-free sausages using our secret recipes. We also feature ‘La Ionica’ chicken -these birds are free-roaming and chemical free, and alpaca meat from La Viande.
Free-Range Eggs
All the eggs we use are souced locally from free-ranging chickens. We are proud to have made the ‘Silver Egg Commitment’ under the RSPCA’s ‘Choose Wisely’ program.
