Unsure where Sarah Lambert ate based on her recent review, it certainly can’t be the same place we ate last night!! Our meals at Blake’s restaurant were impeccable!! Delightful staff, exquisite food, the seafood chowder and steak were divine!! Along with the rest of the meals we ordered. Could not fault anything! Service staff were amazing!! Donna was professional, friendly and well rounded in her knowledge of food, service, dining experience and people skills. Could not have been more friendly! The young man running meals was so friendly and kind. Absolute Credit to the chef, food was delicious, well prepared and flavoursome! So evident in the preparation and flavour of the food that the chef and kitchen staff have a sound knowledge of flavours, textures and presentation of food. Overall a spectacular dining experience, we will be dining there again soon. Thank you Blake’s restaurant for such an enjoyable meal and friendly banter! We will certainly be spreading the word to head on in! Thank you again, what an experience :) (From an ex hospitality worker/cook/food business owner/ produce...
Read moreThe most magnificent dining experience we have had for a long time and during our week long stay in Port Fairy - this place is an absolute must! The food couldn’t have been more special, so fresh, beautiful flavours and just simple food done incredibly well. A menu with something for everyone, it was difficult to choose as there was so many good options! We were served by Donna who was so lovely, engaged and welcoming! She couldn’t have taken better care of us, she recommended great wine and helped decide what dish to choose. The place itself has a beautiful warm ambience, and wasn’t overly loud or too much with each couple of tables separated in dining rooms throughout the restaurant. Dish highlights were the seafood chowder, the eye fillet steak and the chocolate profiteroles. You will not be disappointed...

Donna is the absolute gem of this place! She is always polite, tactful, attentive, and ready to help with anything. This is exactly the kind of service you hope for – warm and professional without being overwhelming.
The food was outstanding in every way – beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. I ordered the beef steak, which was cooked exactly as I love it – simply perfect. The seafood cream chowder was divine. Donna recommended a Shiraz to pair with my steak, and it was spot on – a flawless match.
My friends ordered the lamb, which was tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection.
After a week in Australia, this was without a doubt the best breakfast we’ve had!
Bravo, Donna, and bravo Blakes! Highly...
