Start with the Feddish tasting plate of cured meats and house specialties or try baked mushrooms stuffed with fetta and pesto or salt and pepper calamari with rocket salad and aioli. Larger fare includes lemon and parsley crumbed veal schnitzel with shredded cabbage salad, pan-fried smoked salmon steak with fennel puree and fried leek and seafood linguini in a rich sauce with local mussels, fish and prawns. Also worth sampling is the harissa prawn pizza topped with spiced prawns, cherry tomatoes, capsicum and red onion; a great accompaniment to a beer from the large range of local and boutique tipples available. There is also a well considered wine list to complement the Mediterranean-themed fare. With its picturesque location and highly versatile restaurant and function space, Feddish offers a unique location for anything from quiet dinners to lavish functions.
