Book NowAbout Cinnamon
Bairnsdale delivers metropolitan-calibre Thai cooking inside a lofty heritage building originally built as pub stables. Tables fill quickly with travellers crossing East Gippsland and locals in on the secret, drawn by high-heat cooking with serious wok hei. Wok-tossed crab fried rice carries deep char, claypots of barramundi tom yum simmer with fragrant regional herbs, and homemade spring rolls arrive crisp alongside generous bowls of rich massaman curry. Guests uncork their own wine for a modest evening or settle into shareable spreads before banana fritters with ice cream round out the table.
- Heritage Stables Setting: Housed in a converted historic stable building featuring soaring ceilings and dinner lighting.
- BYO Wine Welcome: Diners may bring their own wine to accompany sit-down meals.
- Cash Payment Discount: Guests paying in cash receive a ten percent discount on their bill.
