Stillwater River Cafe Restaurant & Wine Bar, Launceston, TAS

“Being fortunate enough to live and work in one of the most beautiful places on the planet is a bonus.” Situated in the historic Ritchie's Mill at the mouth of the Cataract Gorge on the banks of the Tamar River in Launceston, Tasmania, the restaurant glows with the authentic warmth only an 1830s timber building can offer. The casually elegant ambiance ensures our guests feel welcome and comfortable whether enjoying our 6 course evening degustation menu or casual breakfast, a corporate lunch or a coffee with friends.. or just a glass of wine after work. Comprised of a number of spaces, Stillwater's main dining room sits up to 60 guests comfortably amongst the Oregon timber beams and Kauri pine floors. Our private room in the Georgian Miller's Cottage seats up to 12 and our original bluestone wine cellar full of character as well as fabulous wines is comfortable for groups from 4 to 18. On fine days our outdoor courtyard can seat up to 60 overlooking the Tamar River and the Wine Bar adjacent to the entrance is a great retreat for bar snacks and cocktails and works well for small cocktail functions of up to 25 guests. Stillwater is open 7 days a week for breakfast and lunch and Tuesday through Saturday for our indulgent evening menu. Reservations are highly recommended.
