We rocked up on a Tuesday for lunch without a reservation. The place was surprisingly busy.
Fortunately, a table decided to move away from the window and we scored their table, which was in the shade by the time we were seated! Perfect spot looking over the bay at the Tasman bridge.
Oh yes, the food was beautiful and the service was very attentive and not intrusive at the same time.
Highly recommended.

As a gluten free coeliac , I frequent this restaurant as every meal is delicious, perfectly cooked , tasty, safe for me and interesting. I have eaten the barramundi , squid, steak , duck , oysters, chicken and sides. The plant based meals are very tidy and tasty too. Service is friendly and timely – superb . Bar menu is impressive and venue is flexible with numbers and seating. I come here again and again as I am guaranteed a good experience in a pleasant atmosphere, everytime. When you have a pet with you and feel like a quick snack n drink there is a kiosk and they serve gluten free fryer fries .

Local Sydney gal and let me just say Cornelian Bay Boathouse beats any seafood in Sydney. seafood pasta best I’ve had all my life, quality of seafood is something else and there’s just so much of it for the price. Next, service is top notch, the guys are so experienced and social. Overall, if I come back to Hobart this will be the first place we will come back to.

We enjoyed a return leisurely Sunday lunch at The Cornelian Bay Boathouse reinforcing this restaurant as one of our favourites. On arriving we were welcomed with prompt and professional service, (even though we’d arrived at the same time as a large group booking) and shown to our pre-booked table by the window. We especially like the open views of the bay and the Tasman Bridge in the far distance.
There was a full house of other patrons but we were attentively looked after by the Staff who regularly checked in to top up drinks and check our satisfaction with our meals. We found them friendly, professional and knowledgeable about the menu items.
For entrees we chose the Seafood Taster and Char-Grilled Octopus which were full of flavour and beautifully presented.
Our main courses were the Spice Fried Squid and Seafood Pasta which were equally impressive both in taste and quantity of food. The seafood in all our dishes was tender and generous. (See Photos)
We shared a dessert of Coffee Cheesecake which was also delicious and so much so that I forgot to take a photo because we got stuck into it immediately it arrived. We drank our Tasmanian wines by the glass which allowed each of the two of us to have our favourite but different variety. All in all, it was a very enjoyable return visit and I look forward to another in the hopefully not too distant future. Thank you to the Team at Cornelian Bay Boathouse.

This is a hidden gem in Hobart. A high quality restaurant with fantastic views overlooking the bay. A great menu with good size portions and quality food. Service is also exceptional. We came here for Easter lunch and thoroughly enjoyed everything about this place. Even better as it isn’t on the tourist trail. Neither of us could finish our mains!

We had an excellent experience at this restaurant! Despite being busy, the customer service was outstanding. The staff were incredibly friendly and efficient, ensuring everything was taken care of promptly. The location is a major plus—right next to the waterfront, offering a relaxing ambiance. The outdoor seating adds to the charm, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a meal. Highly recommend!”
