The Best Restaurants in Templestowe, Melbourne (VIC)

Templestowe is a lovely peaceful green area, almost bush, with countryside views. Westerfolds Park is a vast area of parkland, but not a foodie area. Lots of trails curve along the Yarra River, making it popular with cyclists and dog walkers. Trails stretch to the city one way and out towards the hills the other. A short drive from Westerfolds is James Street. Locals can be found in the friendly, suburban James Street dining precinct.

The local Templestowe Hotel dishes up an affordable international buffet dinner, perfect for celebrations and meals with the family. Miss Kneady is an Italian-inspired eatery. Choose between shared plates, woodfire pizza and handmade pasta for brunch, lunch and dinner. A similar relaxed venue also serving up Italian-style dishes is Vibrante. Leelavadee is a suburban restaurant serving authentic Thai cuisine for takeaway or dining in, at tables decorated in pink Thai silk.
