Rising Sun Workshop does not support factory farming, what we buy in we buy local, from roasters, smokers, brewers, growers, winemakers & distillers who share our philosophies - our mates.We’re here for your crazy & not so crazy dietaries, not all things are possible but with a little notice they might be.

Lunas is always a lovely experience for the whole family. Service is attentive and friendly whilst being discreet. Food is delicious and despite suggested etiquette - there is nothing left on the plates. Whether sitting inside or outside - its's always a wonderful experience. Relaxed and special at the same time.
