Why it's worth checking out

Franklin Wharf Restaurant and Bar is a Hobart waterfront dining venue on the ground floor of Murray Street Pier at 28 Morrison Street. It opens daily from 11am, with food available from midday, making it an option for a relaxed lunch, an evening meal or weekend dining.

The menu is described as a broad selection celebrating Tasmanian produce, with options intended to suit a range of tastes and preferences. From Monday to Thursday, the kitchen serves lunch from 12pm to 3pm and dinner from 5pm to 9pm. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday, the casual dining area offers all-day dining from 12pm to 9.30pm. The restaurant closes between the afternoon and evening services, so it is worth checking the service times when planning a visit.

The venue also operates a function centre upstairs, with three separate spaces: the Parliament View Room, Derwent View Room and Pier View Room. Restaurant bookings are available online, while groups of more than 20 people are asked to phone the venue directly. Bookings apply to the restaurant and bar area, and outdoor tables cannot be reserved. With its central Hobart location, broad menu approach and casual dining area, Franklin Wharf suits everyday meals, weekend catch-ups and larger group occasions. The website does not provide further detail about individual dishes, the venue’s history or its interior style.
