The innate richness of soil, sunshine and rainfall mean that seasonal produce thrives here and, when paired with skilled and passionate local chefs, the flavours of our region come to life.

From hinterland crops and pastures, we’re blessed with the freshest of fruits and vegetables, dairy milk and creamy cheeses, grass fed meats and free ranging chook eggs. From the sea and myriad waterways are sourced both salt and freshwater fish, mud and spanner crabs.

Carefully grown and tended, our local fare is skilfully served up as ready-to-go bites, take-home goods and in restaurants that range from relaxed to refined.

From fish and chips to fine seafood, vegan and vegetarian choices, bush tucker inspired tastes to global flavours, and cheery pubs to chef hatted restaurants, there’s a taste of everything for everyone across the Tweed.

And it’s not just food we do well, it’s coffee, teas, beer, gin, rum and juices. Whether it’s calming, celebrating, cleansing or quenching, we’ve got your thirst needs covered too!

Across our inland towns and along the coast, there’s also a constantly evolving coffee culture and a focus on healthy foods and fresh juices. Baristas are making their mark out of hip bolt-holes and spaciously designed spaces are serving up wholesome food bowls, turmeric lattes and sustainably caught fish dishes.

With all this and more on offer, be sure to bring a healthy appetite on your next Tweed visit!
