In the heart of the Mornington Peninsula lies Wildgrain, a surprising culinary treasure waiting to be discovered by the discerning epicurean.
Step inside to discover a world of sophistication blended with a relaxed coastal feel. Lush garden vignettes define dining areas reminiscent of a Parisian bistro, adorned with antique mirrors, plush velvet seating, a welcoming fireplace, and an Art Deco-inspired central bar. The stunning garden terrace – fondly referred to as the green house – is perfect for a light-filled, open-air dining vibe.
Wildgrain is distinguished by its intimate, personalised touches. The real magic, though, unfolds in the kitchen, where head chef Leo Howard seamlessly combines innovation with sustainability, celebrating seasonal ingredients and ethical sourcing. The newest venture of the Wildgrain team is their own market garden, which supplies much of the fresh produce. This seed-to-plate approach is a testament to their commitment to sustainable dining and ensuring the highest quality ingredients. Wildgrain caters to those who appreciate a food’s provenance and who enjoy the sense of discovery from a menu that evolves with the seasons.
Bespoke cocktails and an extensive wine list, featuring local, international, and boutique selections, complement the culinary offerings. A wide range of non-alcoholic options are also available.
Meticulous attention to detail and personalised service defines Wildgrain. Restaurant manager Clement Cousin, hailing from Paris, enhances the experience with his expertise, warmth and impeccable customer service.
Whether a local or a weekend visitor, Wildgrain invites you to a refined and relaxed dining experience where sustainability meets European-inspired sophistication.
