Thai Tonic Café is a family-run café /restaurant in the seaside town of Penguin, Tasmania.
The story brings together a love of fresh food, good coffee, Thai hospitality, and the relaxed charm of coastal Tasmania.
With a blend of Western and Thai dishes, created from local produce, they have something for everyone for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
At Thai Tonic, we want people to feel welcome from the moment they arrive - whether they are stopping in for a morning coffee, enjoying an Eggs Benny for breakfast by the sea, catching up over a Thai share plate for lunch, or settling in for a Massaman Curry for dinner.
The relaxed atmosphere will help you understand why Thailand is known as the “Land of Smiles”.
They are proud to be part of the Penguin community and love sharing a little taste of Thailand in one of Tasmania’s most beautiful seaside towns
