Why it's worth checking out

The Drunken Admiral sits on Hunter Street on Hobart's historic waterfront, in the heart of the Tasmanian capital. A much-loved, long-standing seafood restaurant, it's a genuine Hobart institution — combining quality, fresh Tasmanian seafood with a wonderfully characterful, nautical-themed setting full of maritime memorabilia, all in a gorgeous waterfront location.

The appeal is that combination of fresh, quality seafood, a fun, characterful nautical atmosphere and a fantastic historic-waterfront location, ideal for a seafood feast, a special dinner, a meal with friends or a memorable night out by the water. Tasmania is renowned for its seafood, and a characterful institution doing it well in such a setting is a real drawcard, with the Drunken Admiral clearly delighting locals and visitors alike.

With a 4.3 rating from more than 3,300 reviews, it's clearly a hugely popular, well-loved spot. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons and the catch, and a famous waterfront restaurant fills up over weekends and peak periods, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table at a peak time on the Hobart waterfront.
