Why it's worth checking out
Lost Captain sits on Short Street in Huonville, in Tasmania's beautiful Huon Valley south of Hobart. A restaurant and taphouse, it brings together quality food with a good selection of craft beers in a relaxed, welcoming setting — the kind of characterful spot that's become a genuine favourite for a meal and a freshly poured brew in the valley.
The appeal is that combination of quality food, a great craft-beer offering and a relaxed, sociable atmosphere in a convenient Huonville location, ideal for a casual meal, drinks with friends or a fun afternoon or evening while exploring the Huon. The pairing of good food and craft beer in a characterful setting has broad appeal, and Lost Captain has clearly won over both locals and visitors.

Menus, the beer range, opening hours and any events vary with the season, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a quality meal and a freshly poured craft beer, it's often just a matter of dropping in and seeing what's on at Lost Captain in Huonville.
