Jailhouse Grill

The Jailhouse Grill sits on Wellington Street in central Launceston, in Tasmania's north. A long-loved steakhouse and grill — with a fun, characterful prison theme — it's earned a strong following for its quality steaks and grill fare, making the most of Tasmania's superb local beef and produce, the kind of accomplished, crowd-pleasing spot that's become a genuine favourite for a hearty feed.

The appeal is that combination of quality, well-prepared steaks and grill fare, a fun, characterful setting and a convenient central location, ideal for a celebratory dinner, a group meal or a proper steak feast. A quality steakhouse making the most of Tasmania's renowned produce, with a bit of fun character, has broad appeal, and the Jailhouse Grill has clearly won over a big, loyal crowd over the years.

With a 4.4 rating from more than 2,000 reviews, it's clearly a firm favourite. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular steakhouse fills up on weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're dining with a group, after a table at a peak time, or planning a special steak dinner in Launceston.
