Fresh, smart & simple.

Leaves & Fishes restaurant, store, accommodation and wedding venue located in the Lovedale, the heart of the Hunter Valley vineyards focuses on a fresh, smart and simple approach to all that they do.

The Restaurant, open Wednesday to Sunday for Lunch and Friday and Saturday evening for dinner brings asian flavours alongside firm favourites like our classic fish and chips and Szechuan spiced chicken wings.

The Boathouse accommodation includes four, private, couples-only villas, each overlooking a lotus filled dam, perfect for a quiet weekend escape.

The Store offers takeaway coffee and quick bites alongside indoor plants, homewares, furniture and fashion all inspired by the restaurant and accommodation at Leaves & Fishes.
