Tamar Cakes — Restaurant in Tasmania

Always look for the place with the line out front!

Came through George Town after a day drive feeling a little peckish and happened upon this place on main street with a que out front and it was the right decision.

Freshly baked treats both sweet and savory and all made in-house. We ordered the customary sausage rolls, pepper steak meat pie, cream-filled lamington and a cream bun and headed down the water front.

The shop keepers were all friendly, cheerful and happy to tell you about anything they had in their display case. They had several varieties of full sized quiches that could be purchased or half if you prefer. They have ready made cut sandwiches, wraps, coffees and many sweets to decide between.

I went back on the Monday, shocked and disappointed after being told that they didn't bake any 'snails' (danish pastries) on Mondays. My last try was on the Wednesday and that didn't have any again. At that point, I gave up and I didn't want any other...

My partner and I have spent the last week touring bakeries in Tasmania as far as St Mary's, Scamander, St Helen's, Bicheno, Sheffield, Hobart and Launceston. At the end of our trip, we both agreed that nothing could beat this place. We fell in love with their cream buns - vanilla cream is just completely delectable. Couldnt fault the bread, or any of their pastries either. Expect excellent and efficient service...
