Rusty Water Brewery and Restaurant
Rusty Water Brewery
The brewery and restaurant of Phillip Island's own brewing company, with a four-beer tasting paddle served alongside steak and duck salad, right across from the Koala Conservation Centre.
The home base of Phillip Island Brewing Company, located on Phillip Island Road opposite the Koala Conservation Centre. It serves its own craft beers as well as beers from other breweries, and you can order a four-beer tasting paddle. The kitchen serves food all day, with dishes including grass-fed Gippsland sirloin, beer-battered fish and chips, a beef pie made with its own chicory stout, Parmesan chicken schnitzel, warm duck salad and a vegan chickpea curry. Kids' meals are available, making it family-friendly. Some reviews say the menu has changed little over the years and prices are on the high side. Expect to spend about AUD 45–70 per person. You will need to drive there.
