Franklin Wharf Restaurant & Bar

Franklin Wharf Restaurant & Bar is a warm, waterfront hangout tucked right into Hobart’s Murray Street Pier, with sweeping views over the Derwent River that make it feel relaxed and a little special. The space is thoughtfully designed, from the bright, open bar area to a more intimate dining room, and the decor nods to the maritime heritage of the wharf with coastal colours and natural materials.

On the menu you’ll find a celebration of Tasmanian produce: wood-fired pizzas, fresh oysters, hearty mains and crisp salads. They also serve all-day dining, including breakfast, and there’s a great selection of drinks, from classic cocktails to local wines and beers, perfect for a casual lunch or a sundown dinner. For bigger occasions, there are three function rooms upstairs with waterfront views, making it a solid spot for anything from a relaxed gathering to a more formal event.
