Braidie's Tavern

Located just outside Bendigo, Braidie’s Tavern on Wellington Street in Strathfieldsaye is the ideal local watering hole for an icy beer and bite to eat. On warm days sit back and relax in the beer garden, where Bali huts complete with their own TV and mist systems, beckon to listen to live music while the kids play in the sandpit; or at the indoor bar and bistro projecting a modern chilled out vibe. Start with salt and pepper calamari, mixed lettuce, snow pea tendrils and lemon pepper aioli; before meaty mains like red wine and rosemary lamb shank, mashed potato, baby bok choy and broccolini. Perhaps Spanish seafood and chorizo risotto entices, with mussels, prawns, scallops, Tiger prawns, red onion, capsicum and rich chicken stock; washed down with a glass of chilled white wine.
