At Tides Restaurant, we are committed to providing exceptional service, delicious cuisine, and a warm atmosphere for our customers. Established in June 2007, our family-owned restaurant has built a strong local reputation for its relaxed and warm atmosphere, genuine friendly service, and freshly prepared home-cooked food using locally sourced ingredients.
Our Story
Our restaurant is the culmination of our combined experience in the catering industry. We have a wealth of knowledge, having worked on cruise liners, branded restaurants, four-star hotels, and fine dining restaurants. Our mission is simple: we strive to provide top-quality ingredients sourced from local suppliers, freshly prepared to order on the premises, traditional home-cooked dishes, genuine friendly service in a relaxed and warm atmosphere, and at prices that are affordable and great value for money.
What started as a small daytime cafe has now grown into a busy and successful restaurant, offering various services, including regular theme nights, private functions for any occasion, outside catering, and breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Our Menus
Our menu features a range of delicious dishes, from classic breakfast options to hearty lunches and evening meals. Our wine list is carefully curated to pair perfectly with our dishes. We also offer outside catering services for special occasions and events.

Whether you're planning a private function or a corporate event, we can accommodate up to 30 people in our restaurant. We'll work with you to choose a suitable menu for your event. There is no room hire charge, but minimum numbers do apply. For outside catering, we offer a range of options, including cold buffets and tailored menus for your specific occasion.
