Shopping In Tea Gardens
Behind the Tea Gardens Hotel across Myall Street, you will find a precinct of boutiques; Bohemian Spirit, Upbeat and Positive, Circle of Friends and Little Faith. Come say hi to Deb (the publisher of this website) at Upbeat and Positive situated inside Bohemian Spirit.
As well there is a pottery studio and bakery.
Tea Gardens offers a few bakeries, cafes, gift shops, restaurants, medical facilities, real estate, ice-cream parlour, restaurants and fantastic fish-n-chips. In my opinion you must check out Two Fat Bakers (my favourite scone with locally produced jam). And I am a regular at Tea Gardens Boatshed.
As you would expect in a seaside village like this, there is also a fish co-op and the Tea Gardens Hotel is a popular spot with both locals and visitors. The fish n chips are great! On weekends you will always have live entertainment and on public holidays during the day the pub offers a range of entertainment including for children, such as a petting zoo.
The police station is quaint. But not that busy! That's a good thing, we don't like criminals here in Tea Gardens. We are a peaceful village.
The trees along the river are stunning when in flower. A perfect spot to have a picnic under some shade. During the seasons, these two trees go from bare, to colour and then to an opulence of shade.
Tea Gardens population grows exceptionally during the holiday season. With plenty of short-term holiday rentals for visitors. If you're camping or caravanning, then Hawks Nest is where you should go.
Things to do include fishing, kayaking, taking the ferry across to Nelson Bay, swimming, camping, bushwalking, visiting the art gallery or appreciating a beer at the pub.
The Art Gallery showcases a wide range of artwork by local artists and boasts a beautiful garden.
The Myall Quays shopping centre offers a supermarket, cafes, post office, bakery and other speciality shops.
Tea Gardens is a slow-paced village so came prepared to relax and unwind.
On Saturday mornings, the Hunter Valley Providores is a must visit.
Foodie and Artisan lovers will be in heaven with the range of fresh vegetables, cheese, eggs, and condiments.
