At Driftwood we like to keep things as simple as possible, that’s why our menu is short, uncomplicated and changes regularly – almost as often as the weather. We try to make everything ourselves, using local, seasonal, prime produce where we can, which allows us to tuck some things away for later. Wherever and whenever possible, we process all our food products on site, ensuring the best quality eating experience is delivered to your plate. Our wine list has something for all occasions and palates, even boasting a few preservative-free options, and, as with the food menu, we expect it will evolve with the seasons. As for dietary choices, conditions and allergies, we are happy to accommodate your specific requirements. Just let us know what you need. We would like to thank our amazing Tasmanian growers and suppliers. Avoland, Dendra Market Gardens, Elphin Grove, Richmond Farm, Grown For Taste, Brandsema, Frankham Figs, Bream Creek Dairy, Coal River Farm, King Island Imperial Beef, Villino, Jeffersons Tea and so many more.
