Set in the Rainbow Point, Two mile Bay area, Ploughmans Restaurant and Garden Bar has been built on an old English, Tudor style and theme.

Ploughmans has seating inside for 120 guests, with the outside garden area being able to accommodate an additional 80 people.

The Lunch Menu is available from 11.30am.

The Dinner Menu is available everyday from 5pm. Tuesdays and Wednesdays is Stew and Ale Night with the chef's special homemade stew served with a complimentary tap beer for $16.50.

Open every day: Monday to Friday 11am to late.
Saturday and Sunday 9am to late.

The garden area, resembling an English garden, is very popular in summer for a casual brunch, lunch or dinner. The Bar area is fitted with a large open fireplace for cold winter nights during the Ski season.

Ploughmans can also cater for Functions and Events. Their Mid-Winter Xmas Dinner is popular. (A novelty for this part of the world, our real Xmas in the Southern Hemisphere is in the middle of summer!)
