WunderBar & Restaurant
Tasmania
At a glance
WunderBar & Restaurant is a French-inspired Tasmanian brasserie on Goulburn Street in Hobart, bringing classic European cooking together with seasonal produce from Tasmania. The approach is thoughtful and produce-led, with a menu designed to suit different kinds of dining, from a relaxed daytime meal to a more intimate evening in the restaurant.
The venue’s style sits between a neighbourhood brasserie and a contemporary dining room. Brunch and lunch provide a more casual setting, while later service shifts towards bistro and dinner dining. Afternoon visits can also move naturally into bar time, creating a flexible space for a meal, a drink or a slower catch-up. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with an emphasis on hospitality and carefully presented food rather than formality.
Lunch includes an à la carte option as well as a fast-lane service intended for diners working within a limited business lunch break. The quicker format focuses on balanced, satisfying meals and is also available for takeaway, making WunderBar suitable for a planned restaurant visit or a convenient midday stop. The menu changes with the seasons, allowing local growers, farmers and makers to shape the food over time.
Drinks are given equal consideration. The wine list brings together Tasmanian vineyards and European regions, with selections chosen to work alongside the food. This gives the venue a distinctly cross-cultural character, connecting local ingredients with French culinary tradition and broader European influences.
Set within an 1830s building, WunderBar combines historic Hobart surroundings with a contemporary brasserie sensibility. It suits diners seeking a relaxed setting for brunch or lunch, couples looking for an engaging dinner, and locals wanting a bar atmosphere that can develop through the afternoon. The venue is cashless, and reservations are available through its website. WunderBar & Restaurant offers a considered take on French-style dining, grounded in the produce and hospitality of Tasmania.
