The Dining Experience at Chartwell Stillwater Creek in Nepean 

Imagine dining in a restaurant every day where everyone knows your name, the menu changes daily, and the dishes are made right on site by a committed food service team. That’s the dining experience at Chartwell Stillwater Creek, where you can expect to sit down in a social atmosphere to nutrient-packed dishes made with fresh ingredients, local produce where possible, and lots of passion for great food. Order the daily features or stick to cherished favourites on the à la carte menu. We might serve up chicken salad on a fresh croissant for lunch or beer-battered cod with fries for dinner, with homemade chocolate cake or peach melba for dessert. Soups and salads are made fresh too, with choices like coleslaw, pasta salad or zesty carrot-ginger soup.
