    Thank you Teddy and chef for a wonderful Saturday lunch for my wife and I. Fabulous location with a great view Glorious food — tasty and interesting combinations of seasonal produce and beautifully presented. Very nice wines to complement our meal But most importantly a very welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Teddy is a champ as a perfect host This is a great venue — drop in and say hello on your way through to the Pyrenees Region or Ballarat Cheers. Ian and Jill

    We celebrated a family birthday (actually a celebration for all our birthdays) here and had an amazing experience. The view and ambience is beautiful, the food incredible and the service wonderful. It’s great to hear the story of the vineyard, the winery and the food and share the passion of the owner and chef. The presentation of the food is artistry, and it was lovely seeing the chef pop out to the garden to cut some fresh produce and herbs then a few minutes later it was served up to us. We have all agreed we’ll be back again!

    We were blown away by Wayward Winery! We had booked a table for a weekend away in Ballarat, not knowing what to expect but so grateful we did. The food and wine were delicious, the interior design and view were stunning and the host Teddy was so lovely and welcoming. An absolute hidden gem that we’re glad to have uncovered. We’ll definitely be back!
