I popped in solo on a Thursday morning, and the place was packed! A great sign. I had "The old new egg dish" which was eggs scrambled with feta, beetroot relish and rocket on garlic sourdough, plus crispy pancetta. It really was as good as it sounds! Reasonable price, and a large serving. The staff were lovely. Interesting decor, it really is a laundromat! Will definitely be back.

Approximate cost: $16

This review is for The Beachfront Voyager, Burnie TAS

For $165 per night we were expecting more. We stayed in the "Spa Suite" which wasn't as flash as it sounds. Extremely dated and tired room. Dirty cutlery and crockery, a vase of very dusty fake flowers, and a sad looking minibar with no price list. The lady at the front desk was quite rude. We felt extremely ripped off to be honest.

Approximate cost: $165

This review is for State Cinema, North Hobart TAS

I've been going here since I was a child, back when there was just the one cinema. The transformation has been incredible. It's definitely my preferred cinema! Amazing building, great staff, good bar options. I don't really love the food, as it seems like they just reheat things made elsewhere, but it's not somewhere that I go to eat anyway.

Stopped here on the way to Burnie from Hobart. It was amazing! We enjoyed a few drinks whilst admiring the fabulous view. It's a surf life saving club with a difference. Lovely staff, incredible menu, eclectic venue. My only complaint would be that we had no idea that it existed! Will drop in on our way back to Hobart.

So glad we found this place! Fantastic coffee and delicious, generous breakfast. The place was quite busy on a Saturday morning, and the staff did really well keeping everything together. Also the decor is gorgeous!

This place is brand new and exciting!
Customer service wasn't exceptional, but my chocolate frozen yogurt was delicious.
They have a huge range, so something for every taste.

I am already in love with this place!! They sell various Japanese groceries, as well as sake and Japanese beers. The also have some delicious fresh lunch items such as rice balls, seaweed salad, and miso soup. The staff are so friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is lovely.

This review is for Duke Of Wellington, Hobart TAS

We went here as a big group for dinner. The main menu was way too expensive for pub meals, so we ordered off the pizza menu. One pizza between two was more than enough, and the quality was good. Drinks are reasonably priced, and the staff are nice enough. It's not the greatest place to go for a meal, but it's definitely not the worst!

Approximate cost: $20

This review is for Sush, Hobart TAS

The sushi here is fantastic! They've introduced a brown rice roll which is healthier too. I also tried the udon noodle soup, which was delicious. I'm a big fan of the miso soup as well. The shop is fairly tiny, so no chance for a seat during lunch rush, but the atmosphere is nice.

A little gem in Devonport! We we went on a Sunday morning when there didn't seem to be anywhere else open.
The poached eggs were perfect, toast was delicious and probably home made. It has a cozy but contemporary atmosphere, and the staff are lovely and very welcoming.
My only (tiny) complaint would be the food presentation. I ordered poached eggs on toast with avocado. It was served on a massive plate and looked very bare, no garnish. I asked the waitress for some relish and she promptly delivered. Easy! Will definitely be back next time I'm in the area.

Approximate cost: $12
