The Basin Café

Come in, take a seat and allow the abundant glazing of our café to captivate you as you enjoy an endless view of the Cataract Gorge over breakfast, morning tea or lunch. If adventure calls and time is of the essence you can pop past our takeaway counter for a quick bite instead. This is the perfect pit stop to fill you up in-between gorge swims in the summertime or after a long walk on the zig zag track. Our team looks forward to welcoming you to relish in a generous casual dining experience in one of the most picturesque locations in Tasmania.

Joanna’s Jams a Tasmanian business,  part of the Matson Hospitality Group, are proud to source all of our ingredients from local Tassie growers and vendors, and use minimal possible additives so you know that you’re getting the full natural flavour. All of our preserves are produced by hand in small batches at our Launceston kitchen, giving it the quality of a homemade product that you just can’t fake. These jams are availiable at The Basin Cafe or go to Joanna’s Jams for our complete selection.
