The building is surrounded by the grounds of the Devil’s Vineyard, and combines a lookout, cellar door and food vendors.

Shipping containers have been used as the underlying structure of the building, as it allowed the structure to be prefabricated off-site, providing timing and logistics advantages for the remote location.

Originally just a small building, the new building has space for seasonal events, and a large deck for visitors to relax and enjoy the view over the Freycinet Peninsula, while they get a quick bite to eat.
