Our dinner booking was made and confirmed by email and the restaurant accommodated our request for a table downstairs. It was a warm intimate space with an open fireplace. Nice cosy atmosphere with attentive staff. We started with some freshly shucked bluff oysters served with a wine jelly and some scallops with cauliflower mash. Both starters good but did not... More

The food was amazing and the waiter knew exactly what wines to match with the specials and they were fab. Fire and atmosphere really good. We would highly recommend it. Such an enjoyable evening! More

The meal and service were very good. It is more for younger singles/ couples. We had just been horse trekking and were not properly dressed. Jeans, Caps and all....

Great food and wine. Attentive but not intrusive service. Very pleasant surroundings. We really enjoyed our dining experience at The Bunker and would very gladly dine there again. Only negative, the wine recommendations did not jell with our tastes. A major positive, not as expensive as we imagined. More

We lucked out and were able to walk into The Bunker at 6pm, the minute it opened. As it turned out, we got the only two-top table that hadn't been reserved for that evening. It was chilly outside, so the huge fireplace in the dining room was blazing. The food (abalone ravioli and hare to start; roast rack of lamb... More
