The Exchange is part of the rich history of Beaconsfield and has been on this site since 1879. Bar at The Exchange Beaconsfield provides an extensive list of high quality Tasmanian produce that ranges from wines produced within the picturesque Tamar Valley to beers hand-crafted in breweries across the state and award-winning spirits distilled by some of the worlds best. In summer, try one of their unique cocktails on the back deck or wait for winter to warm up by the fire with a glass of local wine. In addition to their tailored bar experience, enjoy a cheese or meat platter or some hot bar snacks to keep you warm. They also often feature local food vans and a special 'Wine of The Week'. Keep an eye on their socials to make sure that you don't miss out! So, whether you visit on your way through, or become one of our regulars, enjoy a slice of history in this faithfully restored heritage hotel.

Come and Play in our History! Step back in time at the Beaconsfield Mine & Heritage Centre, where history comes alive through a captivating array of interactive experiences. Discover a different story around every corner as you push buttons, pull levers, crawl through tunnels, and search for hidden animals. Immerse yourself in the vibrant past of Beaconsfield and the Tamar Valley with hands-on exhibits that let you touch, feel, and engage with over 1000s of fascinating artifacts. We recommend spending at least 90 minutes to fully explore the Centre, though you may want to stay longer, lost in the enchanting tales of yesteryear. Be prepared for an adventure, as sections of the Heritage Centre occupy an industrial ruin site that is outdoors and exposed to the elements.

Miner's Gold Brewery is a Microbrewery established in the old Chief Engineers house that was once part of the Beaconsfield Gold Mine. The house has been restored with the addition of a Microbrewery and commercial kitchen offering paired food and beer combinations. Our menu is based on a paddock to plate theme supporting local producers. Visitors can view and see the brewery in operation and can participate in interactive tours with a tour guide and taste the raw ingredients and gain an understanding of beer manufacturing with a tasting paddle option. The bar offers a range of different beers as well as local wines and spirits.
