The appeal is that combination of well-made drinks, good food and a vibrant, characterful setting in a convenient central Hobart location, ideal for drinks with friends, a feed, a date or a sociable night out. A bar that's nailed both its drinks and its vibe really stands out, and Rude Boy has clearly won over a devoted following.
With a 4.6 rating from more than 510 reviews, it's clearly a much-loved spot. The drinks list, menus, opening hours and any events vary, and a popular bar gets busy on weekends, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a quality drink, a bite and a great atmosphere, it's often just a matter of dropping in at Rude Boy in central Hobart.
