Sails atRobe

Contemporary coastal dining sits at the heart of this Victoria Street room, where the menu is built for sharing and shaped around Robe's own catch. Southern Rock Lobster is the signature, joined by oysters, king prawns, tuna ceviche and steak, plus grilled focaccia and smaller plates to graze while you settle in. Dinner is served Tuesday to Saturday from 5:30pm, with the kitchen closed Sunday and Monday, so it pays to plan an evening around it in peak season. The mood is relaxed rather than formal, with an intimate wine bar and a local-leaning list to match the food. It is a genuinely independent restaurant, not a franchise, and the produce focus reflects the region rather than a corporate playbook. Booking ahead is sensible when the town is busy over summer.
