By 1:30 PM it’s time for a long, indulgent lunch. Nestled inside the Tuscan-inspired sandstone complex of Peppers Creek Village on Broke Road, Café Enzo has been one of the Hunter Valley's most-loved dining spots since 1996. The menu is built around locally sourced, homemade cooking — think generous plates, great coffee, and an alfresco courtyard that makes you want to linger. It's a genuine institution in the valley, known as much for its atmosphere and hospitality as for the food itself. Guests order and pay on the day.
