With a range of dining rooms, friendly staff and an extensive menu this was a good choice for a family dinner. Noise level was ok so we could talk and enjoy our meals. There was an outdoor area but a little brisk for us that night. The wine list was good and my usual pub pick, fish and chips, came... More

We had the most relaxed time here its a quieter area but a short walk to the city, salamanca and waterfront easily in 10 mins, the rooms are nice and have TVs and air/con, a breakfast room is also available. The very best Pub counter meal we had was here and the cheapest, it was divine!

Stayed 2 nights and LOVED it. Bar Staff were really friendly and helpful. Locals and visitors in the bar all friendly, great to have a yarn to. Ensuite rooms were very clean and big. Had dinner in the restaurant, great food!! Day room has tv and heaps of tourist brochures, magazines and books to read. Couldnt find laundry, not sure... More

Great place for a beer when in Hobart. Battery Point is a very cool area. I have tried three times to drop in to the bistro at the Shippie's but it is always booked out. I booked in advance one time and meal was pretty good but very expensive and no better than the other restaurants and pubs in the... More

A beautiful old pub with great meals. Lovely atmosphere with some great photos of Sydney to Hobart yachts around the walls. Enjoyed my two visits to this pub and can highly recommend a drop in if you are in Battery Point.

We dined at Shippies Bistro this evening for a work Christmas Party. The Bistro was packed to the rafters: no problem with that, seemed like a good atmosphere. We would expect that a fully booked restaurant/bistro might have put extra staff on for the night - no such luck! Our booking was for 7pm, yet by 9pm our table still... More

Visiting Hobart and staying nearby we thought we would pop into the Shipwrights at 5.45 for an early and quick bite to eat. The Shipwrights has a large dining facility with tables spread around in various rooms. There was no-one in the pub at that time and we asked if the three of us could be accommodation for a 6pm...

We stayed at the Shipwright's Arms Hotel for three nights at the end of our tour of Tassie, our room was in the newer part of the hotel with an enormous bathroom suitable for wheelchair users. The staff in the bar were very friendly and welcoming and happy to recommend restaurants and local attractions. We ate in the restaurant the... More

We had both been to 'Shippies' on previous visits to Hobart. A drink in the atmospheric bar before dining was relaxing. We both had steak as our main course and were not disappointed. Cooked to our liking and served in good time. Desserts were as enjoyable as the main course and our wine was a good local Tassie drop. Food... More
