Tasmania
At a glance
Birdcage Bar is a cocktail-led bar within Wrest Point in Sandy Bay, Hobart, Tasmania. Its setting combines a drinks-focused venue with lounge seating, live entertainment and a playful sense of occasion. Bold design details and a glamorous atmosphere give the space a dressed-up character, while the layout also allows for a more relaxed drink in the lounge.
Cocktails are central to the experience, with the bar suited to evening drinks, shared celebrations and social gatherings. Small bites accompany the drinks menu, offering something to enjoy alongside cocktails rather than presenting as a full restaurant. The atmosphere is designed for guests who appreciate a little theatre with their night out, whether that means settling into the lounge, listening to live music or spending time at the bar.
Birdcage Bar also offers a cocktail-inspired high tea, giving the traditional format a more playful treatment. The experience is presented in a birdcage and pairs high-tea-style treats with a cocktail element. It provides an option for daytime or early-evening occasions, group celebrations and visitors looking for a food-and-drink experience with a distinctive presentation.
The venue can accommodate group occasions, with options for partial use of the space or exclusive bookings. Group enquiries can include menu and dietary considerations, making advance planning useful for celebrations and organised gatherings. The bar's combination of cocktails, lounge seating, entertainment and high tea gives it flexibility across different occasions, from a casual drink to a planned group event.
Located at 410 Sandy Bay Road, Birdcage Bar is part of the Wrest Point hotel and casino complex. Its Hobart location makes it a practical choice for guests already visiting the precinct, as well as for groups seeking a dedicated bar setting outside the city centre. Reservations are available through Wrest Point, with advance contact recommended for high tea, larger groups and private-use arrangements.
