Without a doubt the best pub in Hobart. Great beer, delicious food (including YUMMY vego options), pool table and an arcade room, which makes this old school gamer girl very happy. Staff are awesome and just ooze enthusiasm and love for what they do.
P.S.
The photos of dogs with inspirational quotes in the ladies toilets always bring a smile to my face.

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!

Nice lively atmosphere and great selection of beers. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, especially the barman who wears glasses (unfortunately I didn't catch his name). At busier times it can be a bit of a wait for food but that is to be expected.

Nice brewery. Do not offer tasting paddles. They have a decent deal on wings, but I got 17 flats and only 3 drummies on a 20 wing order.

My favourite pub in Hobart. Always find myself here everytime I come down. The choice of beers is second to none and you can always get a dirty feed. If you need help selecting a beer ask for Rob. He's the main man at the pub and will always find exactly what you want!

It's a very good Hobart pub, had strange encounters with a couple of passive aggressive male staff, the burger was very good

I love the atmosphere of this pub, there's even a pool table and pinball machine. The Winston itself has a nice interior and feeling that makes it worth a visit👍
They have a good selection of beers, especially locally brewed ones. The chicken wings are served with celery sticks and I love the combination!

I frequently dine and drink here and the BEST ribs in Hobart are found here! Perfect level of smokeyness! The best smokeyness! I think any negatvity towards the smokeyness is pure jealousy! No matter how nonsensical complaints can be, no staff will ever get butthurt......a rare thing to find these days!!
The beer is the best ive ever had!

Had heard good things about the meals here and I'm happy yo say the reports were true.
Picked a spot out and sat down to select what to eat. I had decided to try the the Baltimore Philly Steak Sandwiche which came with a decent portion of fries. I'd also ordered some Mac & Cheese sticks and opted to wash them down with one of their pale ales. That Steak Philly Sandwiche was absolutely delicious and highly recommend it. The Mac & Cheese sticks were also very tasty. The whole lot came to about $30 which was very good value.
The staff were very friendly and never seemed to stop working, always running around looking after their customers...so good to see.
Will definitely be back to try some other dishes. Do yourself a favour, if you haven't been then you should.

Fab ambience and delicious burgers plus wings.
Special note to the short-haired lady server: RUDE, Zero response after direct eye contact, friendly to some ( people she knows) and looks at the rest of us humans as bugs and gets the order wrong.
Ignore her, find another server( the rest are fantastic), and your time there will be better!

Excellent old school pub atmosphere, American style decor, pool table and arcade games. Variety of table options including bar seating.
Good selection of vegan and other dietary meal options, including substitutes.

Delicious burgers - the special is always great. Awesome beer on tap. My nibling Max reckons the fries are 15/10. Excellent arcade game room with time crisis and Daytona

Definitely the place to go if you need a good feed and a nice crisp beer. Burgers and sandwhiches were great quality and reasonably priced to.

By now, you already know this is a pretty popular watering hole. I've been here plenty of times and each time, 5 stars.
This American styled bar makes no effort to hide what it is, from the food to the art, this is 'murica at its best (Donald Trump Free). Plastered through out the venue is a range of American memorabilia and if that doesn't lure you into singing the Star Spangled Banner, the food bloody well will.
I opted to have the buffalo wings (they have ATOMIC WINGS if you're feeling brave, I was not) followed by the buffalo burger. Have a look at the photos, like reaaaaallllyyy closely... looks good eh? Tastes even better! My mate had the classic burger and as per usual, polished that down.
Plenty of options when it comes to grabbing a bevie while you wait on your meals (20 mins is what we waited for, pretty darn good considering it was packed) and if you're unsure about what to get, the bartenders are a wealth of knowledge and always willing to help.
This is a must go to place and one that will truly be around for a while by the looks of things.
Will be back. Will recommend.

Made the time to come back to this lovely little local place as I had the deepest craving for buffalo wings.
The food is still amazing! They've expanded on the gaming area giving the place an extra dimension. Personally, I like it. Games games games!
I decided to put on my big boy pants and hit up the atomic wings. It's a day later and I'm still suffering. What goes in must come out so before you do this, know that life for the next 24 hours will be unpleasant! Still, bloody delicious!!
I will be back. Guaranteed.

Brisket and spicy wings were excellent but OG chicken sandwich was disappointing. On the menu it was spicy fried chicken but it was just grilled and everything was super dry. Waffles, bacon, chicken all really dry. I was super hungry didn't even think about it at first. Great beer varieties if i come back hobart and visit this place again I'd just go for wings and brisket was really yum

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.

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 $
Update: 2022 - Big Sammy is now $25. Way too much. But still best burger in Hobart, still get stuffed. Dropping rating.

A great beer list and plenty of American comfort food offerings, as well.
I went for the "The Reaper Creeper," which is undoubtedly the spiciest burger I've ever tasted. In fact, it's probably the spiciest food I've ever tasted. It was crazy. Absolutely delicious, though.
