About Flying Brick Cider Co

Flying Brick Cider Co makes its cider on site at a cider house on the Bellarine Highway in Wallington. The building sits on about five acres beside a working vineyard, with rolling hills around it and a broad lawn out the front. Functions can be held inside the cider house, out on the lawn, or on the East Deck, which can be booked for exclusive use. The venue seats up to 230 and holds up to 400 for a cocktail-style event. The team hosts milestone birthdays, engagement parties, family gatherings and corporate days, and the liquor licence runs to 11pm. Business groups can book breakfasts, working lunches, morning and afternoon teas, then a cocktail function or seated dinner after the sessions. Weddings take over the whole cider house, vineyard and grounds, so couples can style the space themselves. Ceremonies can be staged indoors or outside, followed by a plated dinner, a canapé reception or a relaxed party on your feet. For smaller groups, the restaurant runs a group dining menu with shared entrées and a choice of main, which suits birthdays, work dinners and Christmas parties. A lawn grazing station is offered for groups who would rather stay outside. Drinks focus on the house ciders, cool-climate wines grown on the property and a range of beers, with barista coffee and loose-leaf tea as well.

Sunday ciders on the verandah, a lovely lunch, helpful and knowledgeable staff and dog friendly. A great experience shared with family. Ohh, plenty of accessible parking near the entrance too.
