House Rules

We are a small, intimate, farm-style venue with a maximum capacity of only 50 people.
In an effort to welcome as many guests as we can, we allow bookings on indoor and outdoor table settings for up to 30 people in two separate seating times:
11:00 am to 1:30 pm and 2 pm to 4:30 pm
We keep 20 seats per day free for walk-ins or those who were unable to get a reservation. We call these our "freefall" tables.
Once your booking is complete, you are very welcome to stay with us and move to one of our "freefall" tables if there is space available, or you are welcome to bring your own picnic blanket and find a spot on the lawn.
Bookings can be made by emailing bookings@houndsofthevine.com.au. or by calling 03 4224 7234
Customers are welcome to bring their beloved pooch, provided they are non-aggressive, well-socialised with other dogs, and always on a leash. And please, if you don't have a bag to pick up a poop, just ask!
HOTV is a working farm, vineyard, retail Cellar Door, and our home. We ask that you treat our property with respect and stay in the designated Cellar Door area. The machinery sheds, vineyard, and animal paddocks are off-limits to the public for your safety. Anyone who refuses to follow these rules may be asked to leave.
We are committed to providing our guests with a relaxing, enjoyable experience on our property. While we welcome constructive feedback and complaints if something is wrong, we will not tolerate abuse, aggression, intimidation and/or intoxicated behaviour towards our staff or customers at any time. In the very unlikely event this happens, guests may be asked to leave.
As HOTV is a licensed Cellar Door with wine by the glass, a limited food menu and retail wine sales, we are primarily set up as an adult venue. However, we understand the sanctity and joy of spending time together as a family, so your children are welcome to accompany you, providing guests understand that we do not have a children's menu and that our House Rules are understood and respected for all patrons.

It is a strict condition of entry to HOTV that any child present is under the continual supervision and monitoring of parents or guardians in the Cellar Door and grassed lawn area. We are a working farm, Cellar Door and vineyard and accompanying children are only admitted on the basis that this is understood and adhered to at all times. Non compliance or argumentative patrons on this issue will result, unfortunately, in a request to leave.
