About The Coast Restaurant

Tucked inside Great Ocean Road Resort, The Coast pairs Melbourne-level fine dining with coastal ease. The kitchen plates ocean trout in banana leaf alongside slow-cooked pork belly and beef cheeks, weaving indigenous flavours into modern techniques. Drinks lean hyper-local—featuring regional wines and spirits like Timboon whisky in craft cocktails. Tables sit generously apart across the minimalist room, leaving ample breathing space over an affogato or deconstructed lemon meringue.

  • Regional cellar and spirits program: Curated cocktail spirits and cellar selections feature regional distillers, including Timboon whiskey, and Victorian winemakers.
  • Indigenous Australian flavours: Modern techniques incorporate indigenous Australian elements into plates like ocean trout in banana leaf and braised meats.
  • Uncrowded dining layout: Seating is arranged generously apart across the dining room to preserve acoustic calm and privacy.
