Book NowAbout Yea Peppercorn Hotel
Yea Peppercorn Hotel trades tired counter meals for slow-cooked lamb, crisp pork belly, and wood-fired warmth inside an old-world dining room. High brick archways frame working fireplaces, offering a welcome pause whether rolling off the Great Victorian Rail Trail or crossing the Murrindindi Shire. Midweek draws a steady crowd for tender pulled-lamb keema naan on Tuesday and Wednesday Indian nights, followed by a heavyweight chicken parma special on Thursdays. Dinner hits its stride over tender braised lamb shanks, fresh seafood linguine, and glasses of local Yea Valley shiraz.
- Midweek Dining Specials: Tuesdays and Wednesdays spotlight regional curries and pulled-lamb keema naan, making way for parma specials on Thursday.
- Open Fireplaces & Heritage Charm: Exposed brick arches, heritage timber, and roaring hearths create a warm dining room during chilly regional road trips.
- Rail Trail Recovery Stop: Well situated for cyclists and road-trippers finishing the trail, serving restorative lamb shanks and fresh seafood linguine.
