Nordic Kantine

Wow a jewel in the crown of Cowes. This cafe/restaurant is amazing, from the various areas to sit to the decor. Staff are the best food service staff I have encountered in a long time. Very accommodating happy great nature of staff makes you feel like you have returned to a regular meeting space. The food and drink are fantastic. The mind blowing space everywhere you look there is something eye catching! The atmospheres is electric I sat and watched it fill up quickly during a lunch time I am sure it will be heavily booked during dinner and holidays. Be sure to check it out when you visit Phillip Island.

A lovely place to have lunch,you can dine in or outside. There are a variety of drinks you can order and they even won The best regional bar.Congratulations.You can try their own beer that they make also.I had the fried chicken,it was so moist, tender and not thickly battered.They do takeaways.It wasn't too busy when we went on a Thursday lunch. The restaurant used to be a old church and still has some of the stainless windows.

Food is delicious, service is friendly and welcoming. The chips are the best I've had so far! Edit: Upon second visit (7/5) we ordered a zombie and painkiller. Zombie was a nice cocktail, painkiller tasted watered down. Truffle risotto is under seasoned and bland. Calamari is nice, chips are fantastic. Service is slow with only around 50% Occ.

Everything we had was absolutely delicious!! The sticky date pudding was the star of the show, followed by the steak+prawn dish and truffle risotto. We were there the evening of 19 Dec 2021, the kind man who served us was outstanding and gave us great food recommendations! Would love to visit again the next time we're in the area!

Randomly run into this cafe, before me and my partner finish our meal we are already planning our next! The deep fried chicken is so juicy is crispy. The chips come with it, my partner says "best chips ever". Jack Daniel's ribs is so juicy and all mear just fall off the bone. The onion rings are well season. Any restaurant properly season their salad you know they are for real, and they respect food. We also enjoyed oht chat with Rob. Such a lovely and cheerful guy. We will definitely be back.
