Ned's Cafe and Bar is the eatery at Piggs Peake winery on Hermitage Road, at the northern end of the Pokolbin cluster. It serves cafe fare and wood-fired pizza across the day, and sits alongside the Piggs Peake cellar door on the same site. It opens Thursday to Sunday from 9am to 5pm, so it is a daytime stop rather than a dinner one.

The shared site is the draw: a tasting at Piggs Peake and a wood-fired pizza are a few steps apart, which makes it an easy lunch break mid-tour without moving the car. Hermitage Road is one of the main cellar-door roads, so it fits naturally into a morning or afternoon out, and no booking is needed. Ned's replaced Yellow Billy, which has closed, so an older recommendation under that name points here now.
