The setting is perfect in the ground's of Port Arthur and the cafe has a good range of food & beverages including local produce at a reasonable price. The soups & pies are a lifesaver - nutritious and tasty! and generally the food is well presented. The cafe is a welcomed place to relax while visiting the historic and well preserved site. Both the indoor and outdoor areas & toilets are kept immaculately clean.
Definitely not the usual 'Prison Food'!

We liked the service here although the prices were a little on the high side and the servings not as generous. A good place to eat as it is convenient and comfortable.
