About Us
Meet the Bakers
They say find a job you love and you will never work a day in your life. Well, that’s the reality for the Pier 10 crew – the amazing team and fantastic customers are the driving force. The incredible views are just a bonus.
Once a hobby vineyard for Eric and Sue, Pier 10 has blossomed into a bustling winery, restaurant and cellar door. Since planting in 1996, the vineyard has passed to the next generation of Baker’s. 2002 saw the opening of the Cellar Door, closely followed by the restaurant in 2004. Eric’s sons, Stuart and Scott, have since taken on his legacy and work together to run Pier 10.
Stuart has owned and operated the restaurant since the start of 2007 and creates a relaxed dining experience. Most notably managing The Point at Albert Park, Stuart brings an array of expertise from his many years in restaurants and hotels across Melbourne and overseas. Stuart met his now wife, Renee, at Pier 10 in 2006. Yet another Baker, working behind the scenes when not busy with the two littlest of the Baker clan.
Scott and his partner Cath manage the Vineyard and Cellar Door operations.
Our Shoreham Vineyard, Restaurant and Cellar Door is our home and we want to welcome everyone in with open arms. Whether you’re from near or far, we want you to have an authentic Mornington Peninsula experience.
A team that love local
Restaurant Manager Scott Morrow is a true born and bred local who has been a part of the Pier 10 family since 2011. Scott recently spent two years living in London working for the prestigious Claridges hotel managing a front-of-house team.
Another regular fixture on the Pier 10 floor since 2014 is hospitality veteran Mark Taylor. With over 30 years of experience, Mark is always quick with a joke or anecdote.
We love chatting about food and drink and getting to know and understand our customers.
The ‘Sunday recap’ is the highlight of the week for the Pier 10 family. That involves sitting with the crew late on a Sunday afternoon and reflecting on their achievements over a well-earned wine.
