At Old Wharf, we stand in the historical location of former jetties, piers, homes and taverns from where, since the 1800s colourful traders, merchandisers, exporters and explorers have shipped Tassie’s renowned produce across the globe.

Chef Simon Pockran and his team acknowledge this history by creating a menu that celebrates and explores Tasmania’s traditional family dishes. Reimagined and refined, this menu gives the nod to our past while championing our celebrated produce and boutique Tasmania growers.

    Amazing breakfast at this hotel. Top quality and great vibe from staff. We ate here for Christmas morning and I highly recommend this idea. Watching the boats in the nearby wharfs while the sun was rising was a great way to start our day. The gourmet mushroom dish was delicious. My son had the big breakfast which he loved. So many yummy cakes, pastries fruits, compotes etc etc were on offer at the buffer all includee in the price so grear value for the $! Come with an empty tummy!

    Easy access along cruise dock ( 2-min walk). Beautiful setting on the wharf. Excellent menu & amazing service. We didn’t know it was even in that location until we googled ‘Hobart restaurants’. I’m sure more crew and passengers would love to dine here if it were advertised on the outside of the building. We will definitely return on our next cruise! 10 stars ⭐️

    Found this place on a last minute google search. So glad I did. As non-locals it was an amazing place to have a meal. Could not fault anything from the staff, food, ambiance and restaurant decor. If I am ever back in Hobart, I would definitely come back again. Highly recommend!
