Father’s Day at Nonna’s Shed
Celebrate Father’s Day the Italian way — gathered at a shared long table with other guests you may not know, passing platters and swapping stories. Enjoy a special menu created for the day: a grazing selection, fresh pasta, a seasonal main course, and a sweet dessert to finish — all served family‑style.
It’s more than a meal — it’s connection, conversation, and the joy of dining together. Spaces are limited, so book early to join the communal table.
Make It a Father’s Day Weekend Escape
Why not make a weekend of it? Book a boutique stay and enjoy vineyard views, chef-prepared breakfasts and peaceful mornings.
