Wine Bank on View, Bendigo


On our recent trip to Bendigo, Tim and I had lunch at Wine Bank on View, a wine bar and wine merchant which also serves food.  It is situated in the very opulent former ANZ Bank Building - the building is a wonder to behold.

Being at a wine bar, we started off with a glass of wine each - in our case, a glass of Harcourt Valley Vineyard 2014 Rose each, a local drop:


For lunch, we decided to share a number of entrees.  First up was the spicy chicken quesadilla with tomato salsa, sour cream and guacamole ($16): 


This was a light, tasty choice.

Next came the homemade sausage rolls with tomato chutney (3 for $12):


These sausage rolls were flavoursome and beautifully spiced - definitely not your standard bakeshop offering.

Our final dish was the duck, pork and rabbit rillettes with pear chutney and sour dough toast ($17.50):


Yummo - all of the elements  combined on toast made for the perfect light meal.

Afterwards, you can stroll around Wine Bank to check out their magnificent wines:
 
 

Wine Bank is a cool, soothing, atmospheric place to escape from the madding crowd for a bite to eat.
