The Stanley Hotel Bistro is a true taste of Tasmania, where local produce shines in every dish. Open daily from 12pm to 8pm, our bistro has built its reputation as one of the best places to eat in Stanley, thanks to our focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced from the land and sea of north west Tasmania. From grass-fed beef and free-range poultry to just-caught seafood and vegetables grown in rich volcanic soil, every plate tells the story of the region and the people who farm, fish, and craft with care.
Whether you’re looking for a long lunch with friends, a family dinner by the fire, or sunset drinks on the deck, the Stanley Bistro is the perfect place to settle in. Our seasonal menus are designed to celebrate Tasmania’s natural rhythms, offering hearty classics and refined dishes that showcase flavour at its freshest.
Pair your meal with a Tasmanian wine, craft beer, or small-batch spirit, then finish with a dessert or liqueur as the sun dips behind The Nut. With a relaxed seaside setting, welcoming atmosphere, and food that captures the essence of the region, the Stanley Hotel Bistro is the dining experience you’ll remember long after you leave.
