The Peppers Springs Retreat is an award winning venue that offers an exciting range of menu options from innovative chefs providing contemporary and creative food in either the Retreat Bar/Cafe or DECO Restaurant.

DECO's luxuriously appointed interior incorporates classic art deco era features in a refined dining space. Guests of The Retreat Bar/Cafe have the opportunity to dine indoors or outdoors - beneath the distinctive arches or in the terraced gardens.

The relaxed and friendly atmosphere of the Club Bar provides the ideal setting and ambiance for a pre-dinner drink or after dinner cocktail by the wood fire.

Chef

Clinton Camilleri - Over the last 3 years Clinton has been the driving force behind the emergence of DECO as a well respected, imaginative restaurant. Having lived in the area for the last 6 years, he's cultivated great sources of specialist local produce, such as the much sought after Tuki Lamb, trout and fresh local yabbies. His menus reflect his thirst for knowledge and also his past experience at Sicilian Vespers and Blakes in Melbourne. He continues to strive for excellence in produce and flavours, travelling regularly to research and explore new ideas.
