Why it's worth checking out
Big Pete's Eats sits on Swanwick Road in Coles Bay, the gateway to Tasmania's stunning Freycinet National Park. A near-perfect 4.9 rating across 160 reviews — a remarkable score for that many — marks it as a genuine standout.
The appeal is consistently excellent food in one of Tasmania's most beautiful corners — a relaxed, much-loved spot to refuel before or after exploring Freycinet, Wineglass Bay and the Hazards. It's a genuine highlight for anyone visiting this spectacular stretch of the east coast.
Menus, trading hours and availability change with the season, and the area gets busy in peak holiday periods. To be sure of the latest details, it's worth contacting the venue directly before you plan your visit.
Spot Score
The Spot Score is our composite of five signals — two about the venue's standing with visitors and three about how complete and current this listing is. It is not a visitor rating and not a verdict on the food or the experience. The 4.9 from 160 reviews is Google's visitor rating, shown separately and never altered by us.
