About Old Young's Kitchen

Swan Valley dining with real intent, pairing wild native botanicals with spirits poured straight from the on-site stills. The kitchen trades standard bistro safety for punchy bush tucker—think chilled crocodile chorizo, tender emu pastrami, and charred market fish spiked with lemon myrtle. regulars hand over the ordering to the shared 'Feed Me' spread, pacing courses across the breezy garden terrace. Tables typically start with warm sourdough and churned butter before drifting into tastings of the distillery's pavlova vodka next door.

  • Native Australian Fare: Showcases native Australian proteins and botanicals like emu pastrami, crocodile chorizo, and lemon myrtle.
  • Chef's 'Feed Me' Menu: A curated shared-plate banquet tailored by the kitchen, delivering an effortless tasting progression.
  • House-Distilled Spirits: Adjoining distillery crafts small-batch gins and vodkas, including flights and signature pavlova vodka.
  • Breezy Garden Setting: Relaxed indoor-outdoor garden terrace fitted with misters to keep Swan Valley afternoons comfortable.
