It’s known for its award-winning craft beers, but now you can get another kind of brew at the Prancing Pony.
The Pony Cafe recently opened at the Totness brewery, offering barista coffee, hot chocolates and tea alongside a range of breakfast options from sweet or savoury muffins to brekky sandwiches or eggs benny.
One of its signature dishes is the Not Wurst Sandwich – a German roll filled with Leberkäse, mustard sautéed onions and lettuce.
It’s open weekdays from 8am until 11am for dine-in or take-away.

Just a few months after opening, new kid on the cellar door block, Bottle Shock, welcomed local chef Jeff Trotter to launch a unique food menu to complement the venue’s quirky take on wine tasting.
Think salt and vinegar tater tots and a quarter metre gourmet sausage roll with flavours changing every month.
Bottle Shock, a wine experience and YouTube channel launched by Gumeracha winery Unico Zelo, flips traditional cellar door wine tasting on its head, challenging guests to fun blind tastings that focus on making wine accessible for all. The venue recently secured the Innovative Wine Tourism Experience Award and the Sustainable Wine Tourism Experience Award at the 2026 Best of Wine Tourism Awards.
