Located in the heart of Mount White, Saddles is a quintessential Australian dining destination.
From the untamed landscape and wildlife to the classic homestead building and wrap-around deck, Saddles is an iconic Australian restaurant that has put Mount White on the map.
Owner John Singleton set out to create a restaurant that showcases the natural beauty of Mount White, where he resided for more than 30 years. To bring his vision to life, Singleton engaged the acclaimed White + Dickson Architects and Interior Designer, Michelle Leslie, to design a building that seamlessly integrates with the surrounding flora and fauna.
Since opening its doors in 2018, Saddles has been named one of the world’s most beautiful restaurants and has become an Australian landmark, loved by locals and travellers alike.
