Named after the Kauri Timber Company and constructed using plenty of its product, the massive bistro at Tall Timbers serves pub-style meals that make the most of fresh local produce – octopus, free-range chicken, Cockatoo Valley pork, Huon River salmon and other delicacies. Cape Grim steaks are a highlight. Kids will enjoy the pizzas or dedicated kids meals ($8 to $9).
