Fat Pig Farm Huon Valley

 We love the Fat Pig Farm, the farm is at Pig Farm is home to Matthew, Sadie and Hedley. Together they run a 70 acre family farm in the beautiful Huon Valley, south of Hobart.  The basic concept of the restaurant is paddock to plate, nearly everything is sourced from the farm or close by.  You eat in the restaurant where the meal is cooked  Since 2011 Matthew & Sadie have been busy turning the one-time apple orchard into a mixed farm. Along with our namesake Wessex Saddleback pigs, the farm is home to chooks, a beef herd and a market garden. They have limited sitting each week, so its not a place you walk into looking for a table, so make sure you use their booking system at Check Availability  So if you want to book a night with #rvierfrontestate we can organise getting you to and from Fat Pig Farm, for a small charge.

Fish & Chips in Huonville

Tangaroa Kai -Strictly Seafood - I have had fish and chips a few times from these lovey ladies, they park just down from the Globe Hotel on the Esplanade in Huonville.  They have fresh fish from Dover Wharf.  They are only there until 7:00pm and only on Thursday, Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays.  They have a web page Strictly Seafood . Keep an eye out if you want some really nice fish and chips.  Makes a nice meal to take back to your accommodation at  Riverfront Estate .
