Cork at Cooks Corner

A solid bistro option in, Cork at Cooks Corner sits in Sassafras specialising in french cooking and holds a 4.2-star rating across 319 Google reviews. It's the kind of place that bridges everyday dinners and a slightly more elevated weekend meal — quality ingredients without ceremony.

One recent guest summed it up: "Just had a great Mother's Day lunch. Lovely food, obliging wait staff and a cosy atmosphere with the fire. Quite noisy but that was us to a by large extent!!!"
