Local tip
For a larger gathering, ask about KG’s upstairs function room, which has a private bar, kitchen and stage area.

River Arms Hotel is a restaurant, bar and gaming venue on Crescent Street in Ulverstone, on Tasmania’s North-West Coast. The venue combines a relaxed contemporary dining room with rustic touches, lounge areas and a bar suited to casual drinks, light meals and pre-dinner gatherings.

The restaurant menu covers a broad range of familiar formats. Dining options include starters, shared tapas-style plates, salads, pasta, wood-fired pizzas, steaks, desserts and more substantial main courses. The range allows the venue to suit a quick meal, a shared table or a longer restaurant occasion. A wine list featuring local and Australian selections provides matching options alongside the food.

Families are catered for with a dedicated children’s menu. Children’s main meals include a choice of soft drink, juice or flavoured milk, as well as an activity placemat. The overall style remains approachable and informal, while the separate dining spaces and fuller menu give the venue flexibility for more formal meals.

River Arms Hotel also includes a gaming lounge and TASKeno facilities, with responsible gaming information available at the venue. The bar and lounge areas add a social component beyond the restaurant, and live music may form part of the entertainment offering where scheduled.

For larger occasions, KG’s function room is located upstairs and includes a private bar, kitchen and stage area. The space is designed for events including weddings, awards dinners and other functions, with layouts that can accommodate seated and cocktail-style gatherings. This makes the venue suitable for everyday dining as well as organised celebrations and group events.

River Arms Hotel offers a practical choice for families, casual diners, groups and visitors seeking food, drinks and entertainment in one Ulverstone venue. Its combination of broad menu choices, family facilities, lounge seating and function space gives the venue a flexible character across different types of visits.
