A note about all January bookings. La Fattoria is not an air conditioned restaurant but an open air venue. It can be extremely hot on the deck during summer. We offer water misters and overheard fans which takes the edge off a hot day so please consider your guest list if they may struggle with overly warm conditions.
We invite you to our home to enjoy either our Nonna’s Family Table or Pick a Platter experience. Our Nonna’s Family Table is approximately a 3-4 hour long lunch experience.
We only accept PHONE bookings on 92937888. Booking requests by social media and email are not accepted.
Our Nonna’s Family Table experience is by advanced booking only (at least one day ahead)
Group bookings of 10 or more guests will require a deposit of $10pp at the time of booking. It is not refundable if the booking is cancelled within 48 hours of the event.
We are from a family who cook from the heart with the Mediterranean style diet in mind. We will do our best to cater for everyone however, we are not able to cater for: Vegan, Dairy free, Garlic and Onion free, Sugar-free and FODMAP diets. We do offer Gluten free and vegetarian alternatives to all seasonal Nonna’s Family Table menus. Any child under 10 years occupying an adult seat will enjoy our 3 course Bambini experience.
We model a “No Waste” philosophy at La Fattoria. We will cook to the booking unless notified otherwise. Any “No shows” after our final text confirmation will incur full payment of the Nonna’s Family Table meal. The extra portions will be served up or boxed up to be taken home as a doggie bag.
If you have taken responsibility for the booking we expect that the Nonna’s Family Table seasonal menu is communicated to the party well before the booking date to ensure that gluten free and/or vegetarian requests can be catered for on the day.
Our Pick-a-Platter experience is subject to the weather on our outdoor unbrellared tables and table availability on the deck. Our Nonna’s Family Table guests are given priority seating on our deck. It is now strongly recommended that you book a table in advance for our popular outdoor umbrellared tables in fine weather or call ahead to check table availability on the deck before dropping in. Please refer to our Food tab for further booking times and information
At La Fattoria we do not welcome pets to our home. As we are a working property we have our own dogs, Rani and Millie, who are part of our family business.
We encourage you to visit our News and Events page to check out the important events and dates. We invite you to be part of our vintage and organised events throughout the year. You’ll find this information here

Cheers Eric and Lucy
