Darley's Restaurant at Lilianfels
A historic restaurant in the Lilianfels estate near Echo Point. It has held the Good Food Guide chef's hat for several years and is known for its fireplaces and valley views.
Located in the 19th-century manor house of the Lilianfels resort, the restaurant seats about 50 and has two fireplaces, stained-glass windows, chandeliers and views over the valley. It won the Australian Good Food Guide chef's hat in 2020 and again from 2022 to 2025. The menu is modern Australian, with à la carte and tasting options. Dishes include duck breast with fermented cherries and Hokkaido scallops with a finger lime butter sauce. Recently there has also been a residency menu by chef Paul Farag, with Egyptian flavours. Reviews in recent years have been mixed, prices are high, and booking is required. It is about a 5-minute walk from Echo Point.
