The Clarendon Arms

Best Known For

Porterhouse steak, wilted spinach, duck fat potatoes and pepper sauce.

The Clarendon Arms in the leafy Tasmanian town of Evandale is reclaiming locals and visitors with its heritage-listed charm and lively atmosphere. A spacious bar area leads to private dining rooms, where guests can warm themselves beside a fireplace and gaze upon stained glass windows, made even cosier with wooden floors, dark walls and ambient lighting. Opt to gather with family and friends in the airy beer garden with live music on Sunday and deliberate over a menu created from locally sourced produce, alongside great share platters. Perhaps begin with sautéed scallops, Sicilian crumb and salsa verde; moving on to eye fillet steak with layered potatoes, asparagus and horseradish cream. Finish decadently with warm chocolate, orange and fig pudding and vanilla bean ice cream.
