These 3 are the Australian seafood country of origin labels, which have been required of hospitality businesses since 1 July 2026. They tell you where the seafood in a dish came from.
Menu and prices correct at 8 September 2026. Dishes change with the season and with what is available on the coast, so ring (03) 6471 6107 if you are planning around something in particular. Room service is available for all meals, and the bistro page has the opening times.
Staying the night?
Dinner is downstairs and breakfast starts at 5am, so neither costs you a drive.
