Pipit

The Verdict

After leaving his award-winning post at Paper Daisy, Ben Devlin has opened his first solo venture Pipit in Pottsville and we're in love.

The 40-seat restaurant Pipit delivers a venue that provides the luxury of fine dining—excellent service and beautifully-plated dishes—with the charm of your favourite local—a laid back, communal vibe with a reasonable price point. 

With a passion for utilising locally sourced ingredients, the seasonal and ever-changing menu features mouth-watering eats like, steamed pipis with kelp, potato, macadamia and wing beans. Tipple-wise, expect local brews from Stone & Wood, Balter and Black Hops as well as natural wines from the Yarra Valley to Sicily. If you’re after something a little headier, their curated but exciting cocktail list has you covered.  

Whether you’re fortunate enough to be a local here or are planning a short roadie south, we guarantee you’ll want to become a Pipit regular.
