Geelong - Where to eat, drink and shop
We are proud of our home town of Geelong, close to the water and less than an hour's drive from Melbourne. Everything is at your fingertips, however we don't need to leave Geelong to get our fill of great places to eat, drink and shop.
We recently enjoyed a wonderful staff lunch at Two Noble, and it has inspired us to create a list of our favourite go-to places in the region.
Now, back to Two Noble. After enjoying the chef's selection lunch, we all can highly recommend this South East Asian dining experience that's nestled upstairs in the historic Sawyers Arms Tavern. We enjoyed a variety of delicious dishes, Heroes Sparkling Rosé (you must check this wine out as $5 from every bottle is donated to Share the Dignity) and delicious mocktails for the drivers.
So here are some of our favourite places in Geelong, from the NSC team:

Love Bah Lah in Pako, especially eating beautiful foil from the owner/chef’s handmade ceramics! Rocco’s or Kilgore St grocer for best coffees and tasty treats. Geelong fresh and Heritage butcher for groceries and you guys for cosmetics, washing products, gifts, cards, you name it!
