Food Scene

This is probably the best Indian restaurant in the area! The owner is lovely and the food was very authentic. Natalie previously lived in India and couldn't rate the food any better!

The burgers and steaks here are unreal! All the meat is sourced from a local butcher. You can also try one of the local craft beers here - Tiny Rebel's Fubar - delicious. The vibes are great and sometimes have music, comedy and all sorts of other nights.

Sightseeing

Being such an important part of the local history, it's interesting to visit Big Pit for free - it's a real coal mine with underground tours, miner guides and a warm welcome.
