Rustico at HayShed Hill

Shared tapas plates at the Hay Shed Hill cellar door in Wilyabrup, on the vineyard belt between Cowaramup and Yallingup, where lunch unfolds across a terrace from late morning to mid-afternoon. The kitchen made its name on a long, well-priced Spanish-Mediterranean tasting menu of Western Australian produce, but what distinguishes it for plant-based diners is a standing five-course vegan degustation — a full parallel menu rather than one swapped dish — with vegan-friendly wines offered alongside. The plates change with the season and lean on what the region grows, treated with the same intent as the meat courses. It trades seven days, lunch only, and takes bookings. Among Margaret River's many winery restaurants, few commit to a dedicated multi-course vegan menu at this level, which makes it a rare destination lunch for travellers who eat plants by choice rather than settling for a side salad.
