About The Birk
A Port River Landmark Since 1878
The Birkenhead Tavern is situated on the banks of the Port River, opposite the Port Adelaide Docks. While much has changed since the tavern opened in 1878, it still retains its historical character and charm.
The Birk serves quality meals at prices to suit the whole family. Our friendly staff will be happy to serve you in our bistro, at the Riverview Bar or on the all-weather deck overlooking the Port River. It’s not uncommon to see some of the local dolphins putting on a show in the river while you’re dining or having a drink.
