With a broad deck, an eclectic scatter of tables and chairs, and a crochet-clad tree out the front, this cafe on the main drag is a real gem. Sidle in for local scallops and chips, pork sliders with apple slaw, some chicken curry or Friday-night tapas. Live weekend music in summer, and Tasmanian beers and wines aplenty. Good one!
