Why it's worth checking out
The Telegraph Hotel sits on Morrison Street in central Hobart, near the city's lovely waterfront. A much-loved pub, it's a genuine local fixture — combining a relaxed, characterful pub atmosphere with quality food, good drinks and a warm, welcoming feel, the kind of beloved hotel that's become a real fixture of the city centre near the docks.
The appeal is that combination of a great pub atmosphere, quality food and drinks and a convenient central location near the Hobart waterfront, ideal for a relaxed meal, a drink, a catch-up or settling in for the evening. There's something special about a local pub with genuine character, and the Telegraph has clearly won over a big, loyal crowd.
With a 4.4 rating from more than 1,600 reviews, it's clearly a firm favourite. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and any events vary, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a meal, a drink or a relaxed night out in a characterful pub near the waterfront, it's often just a matter of dropping in at the Telegraph in Hobart.
