About Peppermint Bay

Peppermint Bay is a restaurant and events space in the township of Woodbridge, on the banks of the D'Entrecasteaux Channel. The architect-designed building opens onto broad lawns that run down towards the water. Weddings are the venue's main event offer. Indoors and out work together, with room for up to 180 seated guests or more than 300 standing, so a ceremony on the lawn can flow straight into the reception. Many couples start the day on the water. The venue's catamaran, Peppermint Bay II, leaves from Hobart and carries guests on a scenic one-hour cruise down the Channel to Woodbridge. Vows can be said beside the water, with canapés and bubbles served afterwards under a 200-year-old oak tree. Late-afternoon light over the Channel makes a fine backdrop for photos. Dinner is built from tailored food and beverage packages, either a family-style feast or a cocktail-style party, cooked by the in-house chefs with seasonal Tasmanian produce. Signature cocktails and your own wedding cake are encouraged, and the night can finish on the dancefloor. Work groups also gather here before Christmas, when the venue runs a return cruise from the Hobart waterfront with a set-menu lunch at the restaurant for teams of up to 20. The events team sends out its wedding brochure once you make contact.
