A few minutes from the heart of Bendigo,opposite a 150-year-old gold mine,is this beautifully intact gold-rush pub with a snug front bar,private dining rooms,and a maze-like outdoor garden.

Order a whopping 500-gram dry-aged rib-eye steak cooked over coals in the Mibrasa wood stove,a buttery crusted lamb pie,or a smoky,brined half-chicken,served with pickled veg. With a smart and lengthy wine list and a cheese board paired with Victorian fortified reds,the Gold Mines is perfect for long weekend lunches.
