Wine Bank on View

Victoria


Wine bottles line the walls in this beautiful former bank building (1876), which serves as a wine shop and bar specialising in central Victorian wines, and an atmospheric Italian-style cafe serving tapas and platters, plus an eclectic selection of European mains. Come by at weekends for breakfast.

It also hires out foldable Brompton bikes ($25/35/45 per half-/full day/24 hours).
