Rediscovering Australian Dining at Bea

 

Friends! Welcome. We’re thrilled to the tips of our toes to share Bea’s new menu and refreshed vision with those who matter most - all of you.

 

The next time you visit us at our home on the water, you’ll find the best of the season front-and-centre on our menu, led by Executive Chef Tom Haynes. As he works his magic over our ironbark-fuelled wood grill Tom steers clear of pomp or ceremony, leaning instead towards simple, clear ingredients garnished with only what they need. Give him a charred tiger prawn with finger lime or a grass-fed T-bone brushed with rosemary over fussed-up food any day of the week. Each dish is plated to be shared between two or a few, whether it’s with friends or co-conspirators in business. 

 

 

We always save room for a little mischief around here. You’ll find it in Tom’s Milo-inspired dessert and, if your sweet tooth desires, a wattle seed caramel koala with your espresso. Head Sommelier Georgina Larsson’s dynamic seasonally inspired wine and cocktail list doubles down on the good times, while our restaurant manager Jess Morris welcomes you to our room overlooking the harbour with warmth and ease.

Produce and Process

Whether it’s a simple ox heart tomato grown down the road or a line-caught John Dory from the South Island of New Zealand, everything we work with has been sourced with what’s maybe a slightly obsessive attention to hunting down the best and brightest. You won’t find peaches on our menu in the middle or winter, nor will you find beetroot in the heat of summer. We’re just being finicky like that. 

Our wood-fired grill is the heart of our kitchen at Bea, sealing in flavour with the lick of a flame, smoke and smouldering coals. Walk on up our stairs to see us, we can’t wait to show you what we’ve been up to.
