This could have easily been a five star review... the food, drinks, prices and ultimately the location/vista of this gem were outstanding... but on a 'not too busy' day (we were one of about five small tables), it took over an hour to get our lunch. Fortunately we weren't in a major rush, although we could have used that time to look at other attractions in the area... finding ourselves rushing to the airport after what we thought would be a 'quick' lunch. To the venues credit, the lovely barman said he was 'the only one on'... but a business like this in this location would have to consider if it was worth opening when the credibility and reputation of the establishment rested on extended w...
I was visiting a friend in Hobart and he suggested an evening meal here after an eye wateringly large sandwich lunch at a local cidery. It hit the spot perfectly. I had a delicious serve of salmon skewers and he had the rib eye. We also had a couple of interesting beers each. The food and beer were top notch and the service and outlook very good. Well worth a trip. We were there at night, in winter, but I'd imagine a sunny day or a sunset would be a great time to go as it's absolute beachfront. Also very reasonably priced.
I dropped in for a beer one afternoon. Fantastic choice of boutique beers. I had a Les salins I think it was which tasted like a drop of chocolate. Great for one but had to try another. Next one was a zesty one and the staff were great. Went back the next day and had a couple of friends join me. We had the arancini and some wedges which were fine. Also tried some more beers and found one I could have drunk all day. (I didn't). Great location and I can understand why they won tassie bar of the year in 16. Well done guys.
If you want to socialise with like minded people and have a REAL cocktail then go to Robbie Brown's on Kingston beach. This place is run by properly trained professional staff, the atmosphere is really friendly as are the fellow customers. You can get food, boutique beer selection and join the Robbie Brown's Club at no cost , so now I get a discount on nearly everything. It's a venue to enjoy with friends or family, and as I said these guys know how to make real traditional cocktails. If you doubt me try it .

Went on a Monday night mainly because not many places were open. We had heard mixed reviews so weren't sure what to expect. It was great! We had the back room to ourselves and the cocktails were absolutely amazing. I had one from the menu and the other two went with 'dealers choice' and they were all fantastic. The food was not too bad, loved the gluten free pizza and apparently the chips were great too.
A great place to have a quite drink with friends while looking at the ocean. Food is nice and simple ( pub food/ or coffee + cake) but very delicious. It is open all the time. The atmosphere is cosy and the view spectacular. They have fabulous cocktails and boutique beers, if you want something a little different. Do yourself a favour and visit if heading down to Kingston beach.
On a rare day off together we found ourselves here for lunch. The cider was hit as was the lamb rack for him and I enjoyed the lime and coconut fish and chips. Service was excellent without being pretentious and the location was on the mark. Looking forward to going back and trying more of the fabulous atmosphere. Give a try if you're in the neighbourhood.
Even on a winter monday it was nice sitting outside with the heaters, looking over the beach. The food and wine was fresh and tasty. I'm looking forward to returning and sampling something else from the menu. The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable

Great stop for coffee and cake. By the river and nice beachfront. Looks like it would be a great stop for other meals. Service slightly haphazard. However friendly people.
Love this place. Open at all the right times. Nice for a beer or wine in the evening along with their lovely platters of meat, cheeses and pate. A must visit place.
