Mezze sits within The Vintage Estate at Peppers Hunter Valley in Pokolbin, running breakfast and brunch by day and a Mediterranean sharing menu once dinner service starts at 3pm. Coffee comes on from 7am, and the breakfast and brunch kitchen runs through to 2pm, seven days a week, which makes it an easy first stop before a day among the cellar doors. It is an all-day room rather than a single-sitting restaurant.

Groups of eight or more move onto a family-style dinner menu, and there is dedicated function space for bigger events and celebrations. Bookings are taken through the venue's SevenRooms page. Peppers Hunter Valley and The Vintage Holiday Houses sit a short walk away, so it works as a breakfast or dinner spot for anyone staying on the estate as much as a stop for visitors passing through.
