Pairing exceptional produce with world-class innovation, BASK Restaurant is a celebration of the Sunshine Coast’s culinary riches.
Tucked within Peregian Village Square in the heart of Peregian Beach, the two Chef-Hatted restaurant BASK Restaurant welcomes guests for an acclaimed fine dining experience.
An elegant and expansive new home that opens to al fresco seating nestled within the boutique beachfront enclave of Peregian Beach Village, has been inspired by the leisurely ambience of traditional European dining.
Owner and Executive Chef Jack Madden, who has worked in global kitchens including Scotland’s Edinburgh Castle where he cooked for Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Phillip, is committed to showcasing the coastal region’s freshest seasonal ingredients through a creative lens.
A chef for more than 20 years, Chef Madden’s signature paddock-to-plate menu is ever-evolving, layered with robust flavours and internationally refined technique.
From a crowd-winning sous vide octopus, chargrilled and tossed with limoncello, black pepper, fennel, radicchio and citrus, to a rich 9+ Grade Wagyu fillet served with braised vegetables and duck fat roasted potato gratin, each plate serves as a homage to the Sunshine Coast’s esteemed farmers and producers.
Meticulously sourced for their freshness and vigorous flavour, high quality seasonal ingredients are the cornerstone of every BASK creation.
Offering a menu that champions local businesses and morphs to the rhythm of the seasons, Chef Madden and his team relentlessly experiment with new techniques and decorative expression.
A diverse wine list compliments BASK’s seasonal menu, spanning classic and unique local and international drops.
Favouring craftsmanship with minimal intervention, every bottle is hand-selected for its harmonious pairing with the menu’s distinct flavours.
BASK Owner and interior designer Jess Coolican, brings her exemplary design talents to the restaurant’s aesthetic, crafting a welcoming and sophisticated contemporary space.
An expert blend of warm timbers, high-shine counters and benchtops and scattered blooms and greenery evoke an inescapable calm.
Meanwhile, textured furnishings, homely artworks and a refined palette of earthy hues weave remarkable warmth.
Anchored deeply through heartfelt hospitality, BASK takes pride in offering an inviting space for people to share their passion for food and deepen their connections over languishing dining.
Committed advocates for the art of long lunching, the BASK team are all equally passionate about crafting dining experiences and memories which extend their service beyond polite assistance. Thoroughly enjoyed meals and gatherings that linger are highly encouraged.
BASK attracted rapid success when it first opened in Eumundi as a small alfresco eatery in 2021. It was originally intended as a pop-up venue that operated once monthly, however strong demand quickly propelled BASK to a regular three-day-per-week venture.
Within 18 months of opening its doors on Memorial Drive, BASK was awarded an Australian Good Food Guide Chef’s Hat amid widespread acclaim throughout the country.
