Peacock and Jones Hobart

Peacock and Jones sits on Hunter Street, housed within a restored sandstone building that dates back to the early days of Hobart’s port. It is a ten-minute walk from Constitution Dock, placing the dining room firmly within the historic working waterfront.

The restaurant serves contemporary seafood, but its real value lies in the restraint of the kitchen. While most waterfront venues in the area lean into the noise and bustle of the nearby markets, this room stays quiet and focused. The aesthetic runs smart and elegant, favouring the texture of exposed stone over the high-energy gloss of its competitors. If the surrounding streets are built for the casual tourist trade, this space is for the diner who wants a glass of wine and a plate of local fish without the crowd.
