SET gracefully on the banks of the Tweed River in Murwillumbah, Tweed River House has established itself as one of the Northern Rivers’ most compelling dining destinations.<\/p>\n

Housed within a stately colonial-era plantation manor, the property combines heritage elegance with refined hospitality, framed by sweeping river views and the dramatic silhouettes of Wollumbin and the Border Ranges.<\/p>\n

The restaurant’s architecture and ambience recall the romance of grand colonial-era establishments, drawing comparisons to iconic landmarks such as Singapore’s Raffles Hotel.<\/p>\n

Original features have been meticulously preserved and layered with thoughtful design, creating interiors that feel immersive and timeless, from the richly hued private dining room to the expansive verandah overlooking the river.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dining unfolds across a variety of settings, including the open-air river verandah, the main dining room beneath century-old pressed-tin ceilings and gently rotating palm fans, or the refined Chandelier Private Dining Room for intimate celebrations. Beside the restaurant, guests can enjoy the riverside lawn bar with a relaxed tapas-style menu, or indulge in a deluxe High Tea held every Saturday in the elegant Dining Room.<\/p>\n

A highlight of the calendar is the monthly Jazz Dinners, featuring acclaimed vocalist Caroline Agostini performing classic jazz standards and timeless melodies. In the kitchen, the menu celebrates seasonal produce sourced from Northern Rivers farms, rivers and ocean, with \u00e0 la carte, tasting and d\u00e9gustation options available, alongside vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and children’s selections.<\/p>\n

Awarded a two-chef-hat rating in the 2026 Australian Good Food Guide Awards, Tweed River House offers a dining experience where cuisine, culture and setting combine.<\/p>\n
