The cuisine and service that made Moffatdale’s Old Dairy Restaurant so famous now lives on at the Bridgeman Downs Bistro, which is under new management<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\"South<\/a>October 3, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

Long-established South Burnett wine producers Bridgeman Downs Cellars underwent a quiet but significant change six months ago.<\/p>\n

After more than 14 years of operations, owners Jan and Alex Bridges decided to take a break from the wine making careers and invited Clovely Estate’s former cellar door and restaurant operators Wally and Cathie Presudovs to take over the day-to-day operation of the property.<\/p>\n

Since then, the energetic couple have been revitalising the long-established cellar door and reinvigorating the bistro, as well as expanding the wine list to include their own house-branded Pesudovs wines alongside Bridgeman Downs’ range.<\/p>\n

Wally and Cathie became well known in Moffatdale over the last decade for their Old Dairy Restaurant, which was built inside the shell of a former working dairy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

While that restaurant no longer operates, the high standard of cuisine and service they brought to it now lives on at the licensed Bridgeman Downs Bistro, which offers a small but exquisite range of entrees, mains and desserts ranging in price from $16 to $24, along with daily blackboard specials.<\/p>\n

On the South Burnett and Cherborg On Show long weekend, both the cellar door and bistro will be open from 10:00am to 4:00pm for wine tastings and the longest, most relaxing lunch (or morning or afternoon tea) you could want.<\/p>\n

Bookings aren’t essential, but if you want to reserve a seat you can do so by phoning them on (07) 4168-4784 or 0418-713-132.<\/p>\n
