The Contented BearLocated right in the centre of Geeveston in southern Tasmania - we are open for lunch and dinner - and those great snacks in between!

We specialise in Gluten Free Meals and cater to all dietary needs.

See our sample menu below to get a feel for the great food and wine on offer. We like to change our menus to suit the seasonal fare available - so be sure to check out our daily menu when you visit. Or on the other hand why not stay a day or two at our Boutique Bed and Breakfast accommodation - The Bears Over The Mountain - just a few steps away from the Contented Bear.

The Contented BearTasmania abounds with some great fresh foods - scallops, crays, oysters, mussels, beef, scalefish - along with some great fruit and vegetables - just to mention a few of the preferred ingredients that we bring freshly prepared to your table!

The Huon and Far South region of Tasmania is becoming well known for its fine cool climate wines and we stock a great range - in particular some outstanding wines from the Panorama Vineyard and the Homehill Winery.
