Ember Pizza can be found in the impressive ‘Provenance’ precinct in the heart of Nuriootpa. A lovely old Penfolds building that presents as a hub of eclectic, genuine Barossa food, beverage and tourism experiences. A must do if you are travelling with others, as there is bound to be something here that is sure to please every one, including food and a decent lawn + indoor or outdoor dining, perfet with the kids!
Arriving in the Barossa off the back of a busy Saturday morning of sport, you guessed it – we had hungry kids on our hands and Ember made the perfect first choice.
The venue, service and menu options (heavily weighted with local fare) provided us with the casual sophistication that we were chasing for our Barossa (with kids) experience. Equally it offered space, a cracking uncomplicated kids menu PLUS an activity or two to keep them occupied while the adults confirmed our weekend itineraries over a wine (of course.)
Stand outs for the kids were the Mac’n’Cheese, high quality pizza, dessert and supplied lawn games out the front. As we were two families and our kids are tween(ish) aged, we also put them on their own table along side the adults for the win.
For the adults, we came for the Pizza and it did not disappoint. Think simple, quality Italian wood oven pizza (with the cutest pots of chilli oil FTW. The whole show here is very on trend.
Picture your self here soon, alfresco dining under an umbrella, local wine in hand, with full bellied happy kids running around on the lawn.
A little bit fancy. Simple. Tasty as hell. Perfect with kids.

If you are planning a Barossa trip with kids, we have found the perfect place for you to stay - Angaston Vineyard Motel. There is no need to fork out on a pricey B&B, Angaston Vineyard Motel has a range of rooms available to suit your group size and budget, plus it has a playground to keep the kids happy AND a pool for the warmer months. WE ARE THERE! Vineyards Motel is perfectly situated across from the Farmers Market (every Saturday between 7.30 and 11.30am) and Vintner's Bar & Grill. Salter's Restaurant is also only 500 metres from the motel, so you have plenty of dining options! If you want to dine closer to home, you can use the BBQ facilities next to the pool area. Imagine relaxing by the pool on a hot day, drink in hand, with the smell of a BBQ cooking - sounds perfect to us!

Looking for the perfect Barossa Valley blend of wine tasting and family fun? Nestled amidst rolling hills and lush vineyards, Whistler Wines is a hidden gem that provides both of those to family friendly perfection. Picnic spots don't get much better than this and it's all available for you to order onsite. Build your own perfect platter, tailored precisely to your families taste buds. Take a look at the platter menu and choose from a range of artisan cheeses, cured meats, pâtés and condiments. We loved the obvious focus on supporting local South Australian brands and enjoyed our platter immensely. For the kids, the specially crafted kids snack pack is a total winner. For just 10 bucks they'll get a Le Snack, Sultanas, fruit bar, lollypop and a juice. It’s almost like a mini showbag, although I must admit, it didn’t stop our kids from stealing our food once they where done. Please note: BYO picnics / food NOT permitted and while on the topic of things not to bring, on this occasion please leave your doggo's at home due to the orphan kangaroo and other abundant wildlife. Our favourite part of Whistler Wines is without a doubt, the stunning location.…
Find it at: Washington Street, Angaston This family friendly and highly accessible facility (toilets YES!) features a 1km mountain bike trail, zip-line, in-groundtrampolines, multi-level adventure play space including a mega tower and slide, skate ramps, bouldering wall, half-court basketball, sensory sound forest poles, outdoor fitness equipment, play deck and plenty of picnic spots. default It is the perfect place to spend an hour, or the whole day and its only a short walk to Angaston where you can grab a bite to eat or browse some of the beautiful shops. We absolutely loved the road trip to get there (which for us was about an hour through the hills) and then finishing up our day with a fab lunch at the award winning 40s Cafe a short walk away. We loved the open space, the heaps of parking, toilets, shelter and railway station design of some of the equipment, a nod to the railway precinct it was built in. The 1km mountain bike track is fantastic and the basketball court and skate park (plenty of scooters there on the day we went) add some great variety to the facility.....as well as some fitness equipment which was actually quite fun to…
