The pub is also known as Kellys after the Kelly family having a 60-year affiliation to the venue. The Farmers Arms Bistro is named Kellys Bistro for this reason.

Vikas came from a culinary background, having successfully run a cozy pizza shop in Melbourne, where his wood-fired creations won the hearts of locals. Meanwhile, Jay had spent over a decade in the tech world, immersed in ICT. But life had other plans for him. Craving adventure and a new challenge, he decided to trade his keyboard for the keys to a hospitality venture.

Their wives played a pivotal role, stepping in wherever needed—be it managing accounts, serving food in the bistro, or even helping in the kitchen. Their children often did homework in the corner of the dining area while their parents worked tirelessly.

The family works hard to make you feel welcome in their cosy country hotel.

With some of the best food and local wine in the region, The Farmers Arms is well worth a visit.
