Varias - Warwick

Australian, International, Breakfast

Nestled in the picturesque Stanthorpe region, this restaurant offers a blend of delightful ambiance and culinary experiences. Diners rave about the stunning views, attentive service, and cozy decor that includes a fireplace. While the wine pairings, particularly the house wines crafted by local students, receive high praise, opinions vary on the food. Some dishes, like the golden fried taleggio and various starters, impress, while others fall short of expectations, particularly concerning quality relative to price. Despite mixed food reviews, the overall atmosphere and dedication to local ingredients make this restaurant a worthy destination for food and wine enthusiasts.

What User dislikes about Varias:
As part of Filippos wine tour we enjoyed an amazing meal with matched wines. It was disappointing that we did not have. A written description of what we were eating and drinking. This meant we can’t revisit to purchase our preferences. View all feedback.

Beautiful place, kitchen staff are to be trained out of head n sous cook. great eating, good portions. few smaller technical errors, but should not distract this location, since one must visit the granite band.

Great atmosphere. Great food. Great wine. What more could you ask for! We do an annual lunch here and everywhere we walk away more than satisfied with the food.

If there is a better quality restaurant in regional Queensland I'll be very surprised. Sensational food, served by young hospitality trainees who do all they can to make your day. Great value wines made by the Queensland College of Wine Tourism. Warm, inviting and excellent value!

The service, atmosphere, and food presentation were outstanding. Varias is affiliated with the Queensland College of Wine Tourism and highlights local produce and wines. You can find the menu on their website.

Quality food and great service at a super reasonable price! The cauliflower bites (with blue cheese mayo dipping), kangaroo steak and the cheeseburgers are truly outstanding and one of the best we’ve ever had. Very impressed with the whole experience. The restaurant, being run and managed by QCWT staff and students, is pretty much in the same league as many fine dining restaurants, which would’ve charged twice or 3 times as much!
