About Tinamba Hotel
Serving hungry and thirsty locals for almost 150 years, Tinamba Hotel on Tinamba Seaton Road is one of Gippsland’s finest dining destinations. From the first-class ambience of the dining room, lounge and conservatory, to the relaxed atmosphere in the Amba Bar and outdoor verandah, this hotel exudes country hospitality to all who enter. Using the finest, locally grown produce and working with the most talented Chefs in the region, expect dishes like crispy pork jowl, Asian herbs, pickled radish, pomme purée and cider glaze to start; before slow-cooked lamb shoulder with sides of roasted gem potatoes, char-grilled asparagus and roasted beetroot. The menu is paired with a mix of local wines and international favourites; if beer is what you are after, Tinamba has the best local beer on tap.
A few words from Tinamba Hotel
Simon and Tania Johnson have owned Tinamba Hotel since October 2020 and feel honoured to be the custodians of the hotel's proud heritage as they build upon a vision from previous owners, Brad Neilson, Damien Gannon, the Schoenmaeker and Whelan families.
It was Tania's connection to Tinamba that drew her own family back to the region from Melbourne. Born in Maffra, Tania's family are well-known across Gippsland, with her grandfather, Ern Durrant working as the last station master at Tinamba. With much of her family still living in the area and Simon's extensive experience working within the fresh produce industry, they knew the opportunity to take over the hotel's reigns and move their family to Tinamba felt right.
Using the finest, locally grown fresh produce from local suppliers and working with the most talented chefs in the region is what the Johnsons believe sets Tinamba Hotel apart. The signature dishes deliver a truly memorable experience, served in a setting famously known as Gippsland's favourite destination dining venue.
From the first-class dining experience within the dining room, lounge and conservatory, to the relaxed atmosphere in the Amba Bar and on the outdoor veranda, Simon, Tania and the Tinamba Hotel team provide the finest example of country hospitality for local and visiting customers alike.
Welcome to your Gippsland local. The award-winning Tinamba Hotel.
