The Best Restaurants in Ringwood, Melbourne (VIC)

Ringwood is a leafy neighbourhood in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, half an hour’s drive down the freeway from the city. With quiet streets and big blocks, it has a distinctly suburban feel, although it’s evolving into more of a social hub. The Sage Hotel opened in Ringwood in late 2017, as part of Eastland Shopping Centre. It incorporates the High and Dry bar and Partake, a restaurant showcasing produce from the Yarra Valley. If you need a coworking space, you can do that at Sage too - just bring your laptop.

The rest of Eastland offers a range of affordable food options. Grab some friends and share a few dishes at Hunter and Barrel or check out Ang Ang, a funky colourful Asian restaurant with oriental chic décor. Recently constructed, The Town Square is a large community hub, complete with a library, restaurant, public bar and rooftop bar. For a nature fix or some time out, take a picnic to nearby Ringwood Lake.
