About 1918 Bistro & Grill
1918 Bistro & Grill trades from a family home on Murray Street in Tanunda, finished in 1918 with the date still carved into the foundation stone beside the front door. Inside there are red gum fires in winter, and outside a wisteria-covered veranda and leafy gardens. The restaurant has two private dining rooms. The Blush Room is semi-private and the Wine Room is fully closed off, and each seats 14 at one table or 20 across two, under pressed metal ceilings with an original fireplace. Groups larger than 20 move into the main dining area, which can be arranged for 54 seated or around 100 for a cocktail and canapé function. It keeps its original floorboards and a broad double fireplace, and suits smaller wedding receptions as well as birthday dinners. In the warmer months the gardens take a sit-down lunch or dinner for 60 under the Norfolk pine, or 100 standing. A summer garden bar with cushions, rugs and lawn games can be joined to the gardens for a larger crowd. Parties of 14 or more choose a two or three course set menu served share-style down the table. A stand-up cocktail menu is available for bigger groups, menus can be adjusted to suit the function, and cakes can be ordered ahead. The wine list leans on back vintages from family-owned Barossa producers, and guests may bring a special bottle of their own. Dietary needs are catered for when the kitchen is told in advance.
