Review The Winston - Hobart

Patrick Smith
Best burger i have ever had, hands down. I ordered the buffalo chicken burger. The burger wasn't dry like other places, plenty of flavoursome blue cheese sauce inside. Amazing chips that were quite salty, but that's how I like them. This place is super busy all the time, so there was only outdoor seating by the time we arrived. I'll be bringing my family here next time we're down as the food is actually worth the 40 minute wait and the sitting outside in the cold.

Absolutely superb. From the quality beer and friendly service, to the exceptional food, it was brilliant from start to finish. So many places claim to have buffalo wings, but The Winston has a genuine dish. The pit beef sandwich is without a doubt one of the tastiest things I've ever eaten. I wasn't convinced that the place would live up to the hype and five star reviews. I'm extremely pleased that it did and recommended it to everyone. Get your food order in quickly if you're hungry, but it's great that they don't sacrifice quality for speed

Best wings and beer in Hobart no doubt. Grab the Nashville wings, your taste buds will thank you.

This chicken avo burger was on the specials menu. So glad I tried it instead of my normal order of their chicken wings (which are sensational!). Great place for a meal!

North American style dive bar with an Australian twist. Tasty burgers and sides, with vegetarian options, and good craft beer (including their own). Broccoli buffalo wings are deli

Best burger I have ever had! Got the Big Sammy with pickles and also the fried chicken burger. Both extremely delicious. So juicy and lots of flavour! Chips were also perfection with the right amount of salt added. Very filling. Great beers on tap too, even though more expensive than I anticipated $

Awesome food, outside the box items always available. Love the Winston beers as well. Great place to have a bit of fun and a meal or snack.
Ben Powell
Great brewpub with a games room and pool table

The best food ever. Never had better burgers anywhere. Their house beer is also top shelf. Staff were very friendly. Can't recommend highly enough. Must do in Hobart

Dearest Lads and Lassies, we visited you on a cold night in June and the joint was jumping when we arrived. Wonderful bar staff did the right thing and let us know that the kitchen was under the pump and that we could enjoy some delicious drinks, inhale the atmosphere and our meals would be served in approximately an hour if we stayed. Thats what we did and we have marked the calendar as an event to remember for ALL the right reasons. First round of drinks was a Big Boy (?) a delicious version of an old fashioned mixed by an alchemist and garnished with candied orange (essential to nibble on this between sips to enjoy the whole experience). People watching ensued with all walks of life represented - young families, grandma and granddads, hipsters, old farts (us), etc. Just prior to food service we ordered another round - The Last Word. The wizard behind the bar knocked our socks off. Our food was served and the group of teenagers seated adjacent stopped and stared - our platter had a delicious serve of almost everything on the menu. Order this - please. it was the bomb - ribs were out of this world full of smoky sticky goodness, heavenly pulled pork, WTF buffalo wings (so atomically sour and tangy our tastebuds were screaming for more), fries, the list goes on. Thanks for a great night out. I hereby declare The Winston a great wonder of the world.

This is the 4th time we have been to the Winston, and we love this place!!! We can’t stop coming back, it is our go to spot for a drink and a bite to eat. Everything here is great; the tunes, the drinks, the Mac and cheese sticks �� EVERYTHING!! Plus our baby boy is named Winston, so it’s an extra special place for us. �

I've been traveling (and eating) around the world since February, so I have a pretty good idea what quality and customer service at a restaurant looks like. And because I'm a female and traveling solo, I'm sometimes treated differently than couples or a group of diners would be. So take this in consideration when reading my review, as well. Hobart, Tasmania is one of my last stops before I head back home to the U. S. in December. I visited the first time in 2012. I arrived this time in early September and have been to The Winston to eat and drink five times already. I can tell you NOW, I'll probably look like a local at The Winston by the time I leave, as I'll certainly be returning often! I love the menu choices and can honestly say that each and every item I've tried so far has been two thumbs up. Fresh, hot, better than described on the menu and generous portions. I've read many of the reviews here and would like to address the negative feedback I've read; as a customer - not as a member of management or the staff. YES, the wait for food COULD be long. That's why I arrive early enough to grab a table (or bar seat) and a drink until food can be ordered at 5:00. The kitchen is open for 4 1/2 hours and the chef is "the bomb". When I haven't arrived before order time, I know there could be a wait or that some items could run out. That's life folks. It's not the end of the world. Hint: If you're hungry, arrive early. As for the staff caring goes, I've only had great experiences. No crazy looks when I dine and/or drink alone. I'm not overlooked at the bar. Someone, (even the Owner), has checked to see if I need another drink or will take time to describe a particular ale on tap. It's a busy establishment, but they still take time and effort to exhibit excellent customer service! This has been the longest review I've ever written, but I was compelled to do so. I'm thinking now though, that I shouldn't have given you my "tip" for food service. �

Jason Woodward
Great laid back pub with a good vibe. Cool decor and a great selection of "off the grid" beers on tap. Awesome place to catch up with friends over a drink or for travellers looking for something cozy

That blue cheese, deep-fried bacon and chili cheeseburger will probably take ten years off my life and an inch off my colon, but was so worth it.

On the 8th day God created the Winston dinner menu. On the 9th day he rested as he was so damn full! The Winston Burger is a thing of legend!

The deep fried burrito was fantastic. All our food and drinks were fantastic, Staff fantastic, atmosphere fantastic. Overall fantastic!! What better could you ask for.
