Our focus is on fresh ingredients, proper cooking, and a warm setting that feels welcoming every time. Here’s what you can expect when you dine with us.

Our Housemade Sourdough and Flatbread: Baked Fresh, Served Warm

There’s something comforting about bread that’s baked in-house, especially when it’s warm and straight from the oven. We make our sourdough and flatbreads daily, giving them just the right chew and crust.

Served with our in-house dips, they’re the perfect start to your meal. Cptn Jack’s bread has become a bit of a local favourite, and we’re proud to share it with every table.

Authentic Wood-Fired Flavours Straight from the Oven

around a wood-fired oven. It brings out deep, rich flavours in everything from our roast meats to our charred vegetables. The subtle smokiness adds something special that other cooking methods just can’t match. We let the ingredients speak for themselves, using the oven to enhance their natural taste.

At Cptn Jack’s, it’s all about simple, honest cooking done right.

Traditional Pasta Made In-House, the Way It Should Be

Our pasta is made fresh every day, using traditional methods that bring out the best in every dish. We roll, cut, and shape everything in our kitchen, making sure each bowl has the perfect texture and bite. The sauces are cooked slowly, layered with flavour, and paired to suit the pasta. From classic ragù to lighter seafood styles, the dishes are simple and generous.

Feed-Me Menus for a Laid-Back Shared Experience

If you enjoy sharing a spread and trying a bit of everything, our feed-me menus are the way to go. Designed for groups, they offer a mix of our best-loved dishes and a few seasonal specials.

It’s a relaxed way to eat, with the table full of plates to pass around and enjoy together. Cptn Jack’s takes care of the choices, so you can focus on the company.

Old-School Cooking with a Contemporary Touch

But we also like to bring a modern edge to the plate—lighter finishes, fresh combinations, and clean presentation. It’s not fussy, just thoughtful. At Cptn Jack’s, the food feels familiar but fresh, with a style that’s all our own.

Warm Ambience, Friendly Service, and Honest Food

A Menu Built Around Fresh, Local Ingredients

We work with growers and suppliers across the region to bring in quality produce that’s in season. That way, our dishes are always fresh and full of flavour. The menu shifts to match what’s growing, fishing, and farming well. It keeps things interesting and supports the local food scene.

Perfect for Date Nights, Catch-Ups or Just Because

Whether you’re out with someone special, catching up with friends, or just feel like a good meal, our space suits the occasion. It’s comfortable and versatile, with plenty of quiet corners and open areas. The atmosphere works for anything from a quick bite to a long dinner.
