Great location. Great food. What more do you want? The decor, furniture could be updated a little. But otherwise, its fantastic! Will return.
Came here for a Christmas team lunch, and really enjoyed ourselves. The service was friendly, we found our entrees nice (I had the beef tataki which was lovely) and everyone enjoyed their mains. Would love to return.

I had a lovely evening here on Saturday night. Service was very good and the food was very nice. The fellow who waited on us was excellent. He was a real professional who knew his craft. I will definitely recommend this place to my friends.
I edited my review because I dropped by the second time around. I ordered the same meal and this time, it was well cooked and presented. Juicy beef burger and generous amount of cheesy fries. Service was quick and coffee was great. Will definitely come back again.

It was a hot summer's night and having dinner by the seaside was perfect. We ordered:
1) Seafood Fettuccini - this was a really good dish! All the seafood was very fresh. The mussels and squid were tender (usually they are chewy). The sauce was tangy and spicy. It was a nice combination of flavour.
2) Crispy skinned barramundi and prawn - this dish looked very inviting. The barramundi was cooked perfectly. The butter sauce made it a bit heavy though. I think having a thai or a tomato based sauce would have been better.
3) Crusted Lamb cutlets - I always worry when restaurants overcook the lamb, or worse, burn it, but in our case, the cutlets were cooked perfectly (still a little red in the middle which is how we liked it). The polenta chips were big and chunky and looked really good on the plate.
4) Baked lemon cheesecake - This was such a pretty, instaworthy dish. I loved that scoop of lemon sorbet on top of the cheesecake to lighten up the dish. The mango mascapone didn't really have much flavour but aside from that, everything else was perfect.
This place has a great view to the ocean, it's situated in a very quiet area and food is also good.
We had a pan fried fish with salad and chips, a mushroom bruschetta, a crown grey tea, an orange juice and a small brownie with cream. The fish was soft and flavored and fries were crispy and nice. Bruschetta was very good as well and tea was also nice.
We enjoy this place and we recommend if you are on the surroundings looking for a place to relax and socialize as you grab some bites.
Great location at the pier of Port Melbourne, this place really offer a good view and comfy place to sit and enjoy breakfast.
Had a Mr. Hobson egg benedict, breakfast burger, and latte & orange juice for the drinks.
First of all, the latte was top notch! Hot, smooth and creamy. I loved it.
Egg benedict was gorgeous. Succulent slow cooked pork, with the potato croquette and hollandaise sauce, all was just a perfect combination on my plate. A bit over cooked eggs, but that a tiny thing I can ignore.
Breakfast burger was very good too, with bacon cooked to perfection, and the hash brown chips was a clever addition to it.
Staffs was friendly and very attentive.
Rating was on food! The food was not only beautifully presented but was delectable and mouth watering! The service was lovely however a bit slow on drinks. Husband received his beer mine took a bit longer cancelled second drink as had finished food and still hadn’t received it. Also entree order was missed. Waitress was apologetic and lovely. Note to owner the decor is old and dated. The carpets were well worn and faded. Cushioning and decor felt like it didnt belong. The chairs in the inside dining wereovely but didnt match the tables and out door decor wS very old. The inside heating lamps were dingy and the roof actually had brown marks on it. It did Have beautiful wooden beams which were hidden and anice bar. If the decor was updated the place would have a 10/10. The food as I said was delicious!!!!!! I also should not the entree squid ink tortellini was to die for! If decor is updated this place has amazing views amazing menu and the staff were lovely!

Mr Hobson is located in the most amazing spot on the water in Port Melbourne. They have a lovely outdoor space where you can enjoy coffee and brekkie; a cafe area for brunches; and a causal dining restaurant with gorgeous harbour views, an open kitchen and a cocktail bar - open all evening! They really have all their bases covered
On our recent visit we were treated to this yummy spread, consisting of:
☆ Baked eggs smokey chirizo sausages, paprika potatoes, parmesan & goat's cheese, avo salad
☆ Pumpkin, feta and corn frittas, smoked salmon roasted tomatoes, poached eggs, chia & pumpkin seeds with hollandaise
☆ Triple stack blueberry pancakes, blueberry compote, vanilla marscarpone & maple
Baked eggs:
Mr Hobson put their own spin on these baked eggs and they are not what you would usually expect. Rather than being served in a pan, the eggs were baked with the other ingredients in to more of a fritatta arrangement. The chirizo and paprika potatoes brought soft spice flavors and the cheeses gave a nice richness to the dish. There was a generous serving of smashed avo and greens to really round out the meal. We definitely recommend this dish to baked egg lovers who prefer their spices on the milder side.
Pumpkin frittas with smoked salmon:
I'm so excited about these frittas as they are quite possibly the BEST frittas I've ever had! They come standard with 2 poached eggs which we love. These were perfectly cooked and had so much yolk! There was a generous amount of beautiful smoked salmon and two massive pieces of grilled tomato so you could have some in every bite. The frittas themselves were AMAZING! Perfectly cooked so they were warm and soft on the inside and they were just packed full of flavour. The pumpkin was sweet and delicious and the feta brought a luxurious richness. I ordered the hollandaise on the side for this meal. I'm really glad I did because there was so much flavour in the dish already, and so much gooey yolk, that i only needed a tiny bit of sauce for each forkfull just to compliment the frittas. If you love your frittas then this dish comes highly recommended! 10/10 trotters
Tripple Stack Blueberry Pancakes:
3 light and fluffy pancakes with blueberry compote, vanilla marscarpone and maple syrup. The pancakes are deliciously sugary on their own but adding the generous serving of rich maple over the top is guaranteed to satisfy the sweetest of sweet tooths.
The berry compote ads a beautiful pop of colour to the plate and the vanilla marscarpone is just devine. In our opinion the pancakes were a great dessert option to an already delicious savoury brunch
The staff were super friendly and helpful and the location cant be faulted. The decor is a little tired and outdated but the location is so beautiful you'll be looking at the view anyway. This venue has so much potential and we can't wait to see what they have in store for the future.
We were invited to dine at Mr Hobson
Good service and a good food! The steak was delicious! Also enjoyed the squid ink prawn tortellini. The paella was just average however. It didn’t taste very fresh and seemed to lack a little bit of seasoning. Overall nice ambiance, good service and a bit of a hit or miss with the food.
The place is at a great location. We had a pleasant conversation in there without any interruptions such as loud music, echo of ppl talking, etc. Waiters were attentive and very helpful for the selection of food. I had cauliflower salad with chickpeas. One bad view was seeing the skins of chickpeas scattered around my plates. After they were boiled, they should have been removed.
Pizzas were liked by many. Portions were kept at minimal. If you are dieting, it’s good but expect to pay a bit more than what you get. I guess it is worth it for the view. I am not complaining about it.
We had dinner on Sunday. We enjoyed the setting, the food and service. We went a bit late and there was a rush to finish ordering but that was expected. The lamb ribs were delicious. One of the best I have ever had. The soft shell crabs were nice too.
The best coffee in Port Melbourne. Good breakfast and fantastic service with beautiful sea view. This restaurant became one of my favourite place and I will definitely come back tomorrow and the next day. Thanks Mr. Hobsons
Central spot near Tasman Ferry (till Sept 2022). Great food & drinks.
Coffee and snacks as well.
Try a double shot for a full-flavoured hit!
Big dining area, cozy and clean.
