Highly recommend, dishes and service are of high standard, especially the roast chicken with the amazing sauce, the chicken was not over cooked and very tender and juicy. The Paella was another standout dish, full of flavours and very tasty seafood. The spicy pork pizza is nice too, though may just be a tad too spicy for some. Service was also very good. Will definitely bring friends there.
Fairly popular restaurant in Healesville. Recommended to make a recommendation to get a table as it gets crowded quickly. Pizzas are good here and we ordered the prosciutto ham as well as the Gambus seafood (slight spicy) pizza. The paella is also worth a try. The wine samplers are good value $12.5/$14.5 for three 50ml selections. Kids love their truffle fries.
We had such a fantastic time at Innocent Bystander. Highly recommend booking a table in advance. I love the refined warehouse look of the whole place, the plants in flasks decor is so fascinating and fun to look at 🌿
We had lunch and it was amazing! Prompt service and the food came out really quick for how busy they were. We ordered:
🍲 Paella mixta
🍕 Prosciutto & mushroom pizza
🍕 Lamb sausage pizza
🧀 Charcuterie board
🍷 Wine tasting set
The prosciutto pizza was probably the best pizza I've ever had. The flavours work so well together and that pizza base was so satisfying 🤤 Also recommend the paella, very flavourful with generous toppings. Of course they have a nice selection of wines too, bonus points for presentation!
Overall a must try spot when you're even remotely near Healesville. Or not, it's 100% worth making a trip out of it. 🚗
Excellent location, right next to Matilda Bay brewery- finding parking can be tedious.
Friendly staff, fantastic wines, plenty of seating space inside as well as outside. Pizzas and wine tasting are a must when visit. Also, ask for oil to go with baguette since it’s too dry.
The pizza, fries and asparagus were all amazing! Simple food, good ingredients, done well. Such a dog friendly place too! The man (owner?) out the front stopped to pet our dogs and welcomed them into the beer garden. Will be back for sure!!
Sexy pizza. Had a mushroom and prosciutto pizza with truffle cheese fries. There were excellent ingredients and flavours that infuse your tastebuds when you bite into the pizza. The wine is also good, not amazing but just average good. The beer and cocktails are also good. I would definitely come back because the pizza isn’t traditional Italian more fusion but it is amazing.
Had an amazing experience at Innocent Bystander for our group of 6 - very attentive staff, delicious food (we had the Chef's selection meter board, pizzas, steak and cocktails). On a busy, Sunday service flowed efficiently and all the staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Will certainly be back again!
Always stopped here for a glass of wine on the way back to Melbourne from Eildon, Marysville or Alexandra.
Very cozy, warm and relaxing area. (Of course summer here is cool)
Not so many ppl every time I came here, which was nice.
The wine is perfect, I always chose the sparkling things like Prosecco or Moscato, both of them are my fav, but the Moscato is too sweet for me.
My friends drank Mea Culpa Syrah, which they said was amazing.
Definitely we would come back again and again.
Love it.
The staff are amazing. Very friendly and attentive.
