All food is prepared using available local produce and we offer a selection of local wine.

Lamont House was originally constructed early in the twentieth century. The exact date of its construction is unknown because of a fire that destroyed council records in 1911. The original owner of the property, Mr Long, operated it as one of Leongatha's early general stores and later transformed it into a coffee palace which served the needs of travellers arriving at the nearby train station. The building's subsequent owner was a local engineer and road contractor who was responsible for building the unique retaining wall that surrounds the property. Lamont House operated as a boarding house until the late 1970s. Since September 2000, Lamont House has been offered gourmet dining in a warm and relaxed atmosphere.
