Here at Tannins we are excited this month as we introduce our new Manager Lauren, a professional with many years of experience in hospitality in the local scene and a welcome addition to our newly formed team.

In just a few short weeks since joining us, Lauren has opened up the bar with a hands-on working bee, bringing us right up to scratch and celebrating the greenery we are known for.

We just celebrated an awesome 60th birthday which went off, and included many patrons singing and use of our in-house baby grand piano. The cocktails where flowing, the canapés and platters were abundant and a thoroughly awesome night was had by all.

So if you are planning an event now or in the future let me suggest that Tannins is your avenue of choice.

We can cater for almost any style of cuisine you like due to the presence of our owner operator Paul Rowan , a celebrated international chef, who can create menus to your individual budget so you can be as extravagant as you like or a bit more cost conscious but you can always be assured of the highest quality outcome for your event.

Our backdrop of greenery will enhance any event and is the perfect venue for that intimate, fairy tale wedding. Tannins can be decked out in any way you like by adding in balloons, arches etc and seating and layout is very flexible and can be made to suit most functions.

There are several spaces to choose from or the entire venue is also an option. We have the Balcony, the courtyard and the restaurant itself, and are also able to supply musicians such as, pianists, vocal and solo guitarists.

As well as the perfect place for your next function of course we are open daily (except Mon and Tuesday) for our now famous platters and tapas selection. Our cocktails are fast becoming the talk of the town with innovative ideas like our smoke-filled cocktails in a bubble or our newly added seasonal Mulled wine.

There are themed nights such as English fish and chip Friday, Wednesday and Thursday Cocktail + Tapas $20, bottomless drinks and canapés every Saturday, new Brunch menu featuring Poutine (chips ,cheese and gravy) nibbles and our soon to be famous Brunch platter to share. And of course our amazing Roast platter for two to share every Sunday from 12pm till 2pm.

With our new team and ideas, we are moving forward and are confident that you will love the new outlook and we look forward to you joining us soon.
