2 Best Restaurants in Hobart, Tasmania

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Constitution Dock is the perfect place for yacht-watching, as well as gobbling fresh fish-and-chips from one of the punts (floating fish-and-chips shops) moored on the water. Ask for the daily specials, such as local blue grenadier or trevally, which cost A$7–A$16, or go for some freshly shucked oysters. The city's main restaurant areas include the docks and the streets around Salamanca Place.

Hamlet

$ | City Center Fodor's Choice

Tucked back from a street in a car park, this bright and busy café isn't one you're likely to stumble across unless you're in the know. But rest assured, it's worth the hunt. Run as a social enterprise, Hamlet encourages people living with a disability to learn hospitality skills, which help them progress into meaningful work and other opportunities. But, just as importantly, the food and drinks here—particularly the soups and breakfast eggs—are excellent. There are also shelves full of preserves, pickles, and sauces that make great gifts.

Jackman & McRoss

$ | Battery Point Fodor's Choice

This Hobart institution in Battery Point is still a can't-miss spot for the perfectly crafted cup of coffee and delicious house-made goodies including croissants and fruit tarts.
