Tasmanian Wine and Food is located in Stanley, a small picturesque village on the North West coast of Tasmania. Embracing Stanley’s historic past, Tasmanian Wine and Food have renovated a Victorian cottage in the middle of Stanley. A heavily emphasis on upcycling, recycling and repurposing, has made for an eclectic mix of materials and furnishings that make for a warm and welcoming environment. The philosophy of “Tasmanian Wine and Food” is to provide the very best produce that Tasmania has to offer. While we will have staples on the menu, such as cheese boards and tasting plates, the blackboard specials will feature the best of what Tasmania has to offer. The seasonal nature of produce means we will run black board specials constantly changing to stay in tune with the very best of produce available. Tasmania’s enjoys a global reputation as a leading producer of premium cool climate wines. We match these wines with this seasonal bounty to deliver a true taste of Tasmania.

This little wine bar is just gorgeous. When you walk in you feel you are in a quaint little Irish pub, so cosy and with intimate little corners where you can sit back and relax. A great place to meet with friends prior to going out for a meal, or if you just want a lighter meal, they have lovely platters and pizzas, as well as a great selection of Tassie wines, gins, whiskeys, craft beers etc. It really is a lovely place to go. Mike and Shelley are great hosts too.

We took the chairlift up to the top of 'The Nut' it saves a steep climb and the views are wonderful. Once at the top there is a 2 kilometre walk around the top of what is the core of an old volcano. There are some great views to be had from several viewing points. Wildlife is surprisingly plentiful, and depending what time of the year you visit it's possible to see nesting Short Tailed Shearwaters or Mutton-birds as they were once commonly known. I would suggest walking round 'The Nut' clockwise as there are lots of steps and going clockwise means they are all down hill.

A shop packed with interesting things - from chocolate to wine to gifts to clothes - and all a little unique! Lots of Tassie food and wine items and gorgeous freshly baked bread! A must to visit if you're in the area.

This is a self-guided walk that will help you explore the history, architecture and culture of this diverse village. And it's a comprehensive list of places to visit... well worth going on though. It's amazing how much history is in this remote village! There are QR Codes for those technological savvy individuals ( Oh come on... even 'I' know how to use those, so they aren't too difficult) to learn about each site. I also noticed that the hotel I was staying in had a card outlining the points of interest, and I understand they are available at the Tourist Information ( when it's open). Fifteen iconic sites throughout the town are included in the walk and it should take just over an hour... depending on how much you dwell to take photos. I recommend you wear comfortable shoes to do this.
