About the restaurant

Passion for food and love of all things Italian is what inspired Basil & Vine Café.
The Fargnoli family believe food is central to our Italian way of life and large family meals are customary in our household - Meals are relaxed affairs enjoying each other’s company and the sense of community.
Traditionally Italian dishes are made with simple ingredients that can be made or procured inexpensively such as pasta, bread, cheese, olive oil and tomatoes. Italian cuisine is all about using quality ingredients well and not so much about fancy cooking techniques.

Again it was a lovely experience. A beautiful day, beautiful surroundings, lovely atmosphere and excellent food cooked expertly. What we have come to expect but appreciate the consistency of quality hospitality. The Beetroot Sorbet was superb. Some experimental food is just plain weird but this was absolutely first rate in flavout, texture, colour, creaminess and a perfect contribution to the rest of the items in the Eton Mess. Well Done to all concerned.

Enjoyable night. Members draw night so always a big crowd. There was a private function on the Mezzanine level and the noise from the participants was overbearing...the venue is always a bit on the loud side owing to its design but the group upstairs were disrespectful to all other patrons. Food is good value and the serving size is decent. I do object however to paying $45 for a steak and not being allowed to select how it is cooked...but if you like your steaks medium to well done you'll be in your element. As always the staff are friendly and attentive and the brewed on site beers are a level above standard pub fare. One of the best venues for a beer and a feed in Dubbo imho.

So as you wander through the Garden Centre in the morning, you may well be eating from its bounty a little later in the day. Because we grow our produce, our menu changes with the seasons. The kitchen garden team chat daily with our chefs to make plans and sow the seeds, and when those fruits and vegetables are at their seasonal best, that’s what you’ll find on our menu. You can also take a piece of Mayfield home with you. Choose from our very own delicious jams, chutneys and oils along with other local merchandise. If food is the way to someone’s heart, then you’re going to fall head-over-heels for our deliciousness. Our mouths are watering just thinking about it!

The Lavender Lane was very beautiful. Though there were people already as early as 830AM, we managed to get pretty awesome pictures. We had our breakfast booking at The Cafe and kudos to our server, Zoe, who has been very accommodating and helpful. Appreciate her a lot. Also, the ambience is outstanding - just love the vibe.

We went for father's Day and it was a set menu. The food we had was very underwhelming. We paid $70 per head for an entree and shared main of beef ribs. The entree was nice and lacked flavour. The main was a share plate for 2 adults so we ordered the beef ribs. Upon receiving this, the plate only had 2 ribs, covered in jus. How does this even feed 1, let alone 2. The atmosphere and afternoon apart from that was awesome. Lucky we were not very hungry
