The Dining and Bar
In the centre of Dhipirri Lodge is the main deck which provides a guest lounge area, indoor-outdoor dining area, licensed bar and commercial kitchen.
The Guest Lounge area is perfect for relaxing in comfortable chairs while taking in the magnificent views of the ocean and cooling sea breezes.
The dining area offers flexible seating arrangements for groups occupying the whole lodge or separate parties sharing the space.
The licensed bar area offers a great spot to relax after a day’s fishing and there is also an adjoining beautifully manicured lawn garden area.
The staff at Dhipirri aim to cater to all appetites and requirements, this being all part of the personalised service.
Please note: By law clients are not allowed to bring alcohol into this area of Arnhem Land, however Dhipirri Barra Lodge has a special liquor licence for our premises providing we supply it. You simply cannot bring your own alcohol into Dhipirri.
THE DINING
With a hostess running the licensed bar each evening and a qualified chef operating the full commercial kitchen for breakfast and dinner, there is no need to go without on a visit to Dhipirri.
Here is a selection of Entrees from our Chef Evan Botha.
In addition to a range of starters (as above) we also freshly prepare sashimi using our stunning seafood catches from earlier that day.
The evening three-course meal is prepared to the highest standards by our chef and typically enjoyed as a communal event bringing together the various touring groups at the Lodge that week.
And when it is Crab Night – dinner moves onto the outside seating area to watch the sun, and crab, go down.
Breakfast is cooked to order by the chef with a wide choice available in addition to cereals, toast and freshly brewed coffee.
Ordering a Bacon and Egg Toastie (pro tip: order it the night before) for the morning boat ride is a well researched option for seasoned anglers who want that extra 15 minutes sleep in the morning 🙂
Morning tea and a hearty sandwich or wrap at lunch are enjoyed on the boats with ice cold water and soft drinks also provided.
Did we mention the Crab nights are 👌👌👌
THE BAR
There is a full service bar which stays open til late and is well stocked with a wide range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
At Dhipirri we encourage you to discuss special requests with us when booking or in advance of arrival to avoid disappointment.
All non-alcoholic beverages are included in your trip cost, alcoholic beverages are not – but can be settled with the bar on the final night of your stay.
