Freycinet Marine Farm

It's a no frills canteen style place. Did their best to keep out the cold but if it's a cold day make sure you take your coat in! The oyster shells on the path to the bathroom was a nice touch. Food was delicious, possibly the best fish and chips I've ever had, batter was super light and crispy and the chips on point! I can't have dairy and they accommodated wonderful by doing the scallops in oil which were gorgeous. Well worth the visit for some delicious seafood

We went here twice it was so good, amazing fresh seafood. We had oysters on our first visit as a snack and they were so big and plump! On our second visit we had lunch, trying their fish and chips as well as the curry mussels. The mussels were the highlight and the curry is a perfect addition to them. The fish and chips were also very perfect, such fresh yummy fish.

This seafood cafe immediately rose to the top of my favourite cafes list! Great service, clean bathrooms, but most importantly, DELICIOUS food 😋!!! I would recommend the scallops and prawns! Beautiful ferns in pots hanging around creates a lovely vibe. The only downside is that you can't actually see the ocean from the cafe. Overall, it has a great vibe, the most phenomenal food, and I absolutely loved it! 😍😍🦐

I love oysters so it's a must try place as recommended, and it didn't disappoint me. The oysters here is not creamy textured and very fresh. There's no service here, so besides ordering, the rest are all self serviced from collection of food to disposal after eating, but that's fine with me. I would recommend their Fish and chips too as they weren't overly fried, retaining the freshness of the fish meat.

The seafood was so fresh that we went back to Freycinet Marine Farm two days in a row. We had the scallops, mussels, fish and chips, prawns on our first visit. The seafood platter, the sashimi and the fish on our second visit. The portion was reasonably priced and we were surprised by the amount of mussels. All in all, a place for fresh seafood

Dropped by here on our way to Coles Bay to have lunch. They have a pretty big menu of raw to cold to hot foods. The raw oysters and salmon sashimi were fresh and delicious. The cooked oysters were over seasoned and was too salty, especially the ‘Asian style’ oysters. When I visited years ago I remember the scallops cooked in butter being absolutely delicious. However, this time it was a tad overcooked and by the time it was served to us, it was already cold. There is plenty of parking and ample seating available.

Really nice and fresh seafood and an efficient canteen-style kitchen to serve it. Tables were a little sticky for some reason but I’m not sure if thats a cleaning or a materials reason.

Really fresh oysters from their farm. Of various sizes. The fish and chip was good! Fish is fresh and meat tasted like sea bass. The salmon dish was also nice. Not overly cooked. Thick cut fries was soft and crispy.. Must go try if u pass by...

Fresh seafood in an open space restaurant. The oysters were about half the price compared to the Melshell oysters at another restaurant we had the day before. But they also weren't as juicy and were smaller in size. Overall a good experience.

Our last stop before we made it to Bicheno was at Freycinet Marine Farm to grab fresh mussels and oysters for home. They farm mussels, oysters, abalone, sea urchin and scallops. We dropped in on a Saturday afternoon (around 3:45pm). Seating is picnic table style. There's 10 options on the menu otherwise, you can pick your seafood of choice from the display case. They also had drinks available. - Mussels ($10.00 AUD/kg) - we got a kilogram of mussels to cook at home. These were tasty. We cooked them in a white wine, garlic and onion mixture. - 2x Natural oysters ($22.00 AUD/dozen) - we got these au natural which is my favourite way to go. They were a little smaller and less plump than the ones we had on Bruny Island but still fresh. Solid spot to grab seafood, whether it's to stay or for takeout.

Well this is definitely a tourist "focused" spot and it is expensive but the food (at least for us) was very good. We liked the salmon. For $14 two nice slices of plus a good salad. Note that this is a picnic table kind of place but we showed up at 1pm and it did take a while to get food as the tour buses had just arrived. However unlike other reviewers we very much liked the oyster al naturale. They had a nice brine and great flavor. They went well with the sparkling wine served there. The Black Lip abalone was done in lemon on the half shell. It was a bit dry in parts but overall had a nice flavor. We really liked the farmed mussels in broth. They were large and flavorful. Really tasty. Overall this is one of the few quick spots on the peninsula here and if you Malte sure to go Early or late not a bad place to sample the cuisine.

Its a pity that what probably started as a genuine seafood shack has now been morphed into a tourist trap. It's not the owners' fault - they're probably rolling in cash in their Sydney or Melbourne penthouses, as they've struck the tourist trap lottery. The oysters were not shucked properly, leaving little bits of shell in them. The natural oysters were tasteless - just bland nothingness. And at $12 for a half dozen, $20 for a dozen, you're not getting a bargain eating at this "marine farm". Lightly poached oysters in soy and ginger were better, but very light flavour. Abalone roll ($25) was a big disappointment. The abalone was sliced very thinly, then grilled - which make them really tough to chew and tasteless. You need to serve abalone in thicker slices, and only lightly cook it to preserve the flavours. The bread roll it was served with was generically bland and tasteless - reminded me of rolls served as airplane food. Overall, I'm never come back to this place again, as the tourist trap disease has set in, and nothing can save it.

Had a chance to try some abalone as well as some cooked oysters here. Excellent flavors, all caught/raised within 5km of where I was eating. Long lines and they sell out quickly so get here as soon as you can after your day at Freycinet.

We visited this place on our way to the Freycinet National Park. The location was convenient, about 20 minutes from the parking lot of the park. We ordered a dozen of oysters (cooked trio, $25 AUD) and a box of sea urchin ($15 AUD). The oysters were fresh and grilled to perfection with yummy sauce. But at $25 AUD a dozen, it's actually more expensive than other oyster farms we've visited in Tasmania (we've seen $13 AUD a dozen in other places). It's good to visit if you are on the way, but there're plenty of other seafood options in Tasmania if you are looking for something cheaper.

They don't have an extensive seafood selection here, but everything looked good and we enjoyed our mussels and scallops. Also note that if the weather is cold, all of their seating is outdoor (mostly covered) picnic style. Good pit stop on your drive into Freycinet National Park. Hopefully you'll manage to order before the throngs of tourists on those massive tour buses arrive.

Delicious poached with ginger and soy - avoid going at busy times - 11:30 was perfect!

A perfect spot to sample all the good local seafood freycinet has to offer. The crayfish, abalone and mussels were particular highlights, but everything was superb. It's definitely a casual affair--you bus your own tables--but don't be fooled; this is world-class seafood. Good local wines to match, too! A must visit.

The food here is pretty good but it does seem like a tourist trap. Busses drop ppl off and they order expensive shellfish varieties. The food was pretty good. A few of the dishes are on the overly creative side so I'd recommend the more basic plain oysters over the salsa infused ones. Not a bad place to visit.

Discovered this place on the way to Coles Bay and we were eager to try it out after having a wonderful meal at Get Shucked on Bruny Island a few days before. Whereas Get Shucked only has oysters, this place has scallops, mussels, salmon, lobster and various other items when in season. We tried the garlic scallops with bread, mussels steamed with lemon, and oysters with salmon, brie, ginger and shallots. The scallops seemed a little overcooked and didn't seem matched with the garlic broth is was served in. The mussels were perfectly steamed and wonderfully tender and tasty. The oysters with salmon, brie, ginger and shallots sounded good, which is why we ordered it, but it just didn't work for us. The combination of salmon and brie just made it too salty. Though I liked the mussels, the other two items averaged out my impression of the food to just OK. It's as if they can do plain steamed just fine, but anything more complex than that is beyond their core competency.
