The 20 Best Restaurants in Hobart, Australia | Eater

"You’ll notice this bakery’s offerings listed on menus at several cafes and restaurants around town, which is always a good sign, but there’s nothing quite like going straight to the source. Set in the old Mercury newspaper building, Pigeon Whole is small but welcoming. A selection of classic pastries and sandwiches are displayed on the counter, sourdough loaves rest on wooden shelves nearby, and large windows behind the counter let you peek at the hardworking bakers. Grab a coffee and a wild fennel palmier, sit in the corner, and watch passersby on Argyle Street. [$]" - Audrey Bourget

Such a nice cozy little place. Coffee is great, the food is amazing! The staff are friendly. Easy to walk to, parking can be a little difficult. Standing by and waiting for your coffee you can stay nice and warm with some ceiling heaters! Very nice place!

Pigeon was worthy of its name for the top one of the pastries in Tasmania 🥐 🏆 There’s so much items to choose from!! All pastries were super crispy and delicious!! My favorite was Morning Bun👍🏻 The bakery is always crowded haha. Grabbing the croissants and coffee to the park nearby was a fantastic experience in the morning🥳

They can’t reheat anything so you get what’s on the shelves Small seating area is comfortable enough to have a short break

🥐 Hobart’s Croissant Quest: Mission Accomplished Heard this café’s croissants are the locals’ top pick in Hobart? Well, I had to see if the hype was real. Spoiler: it totally is. 😋 Located in the heart of the city, this place is buzzing with energy. There’s limited seating, so picture this: people lining up outside, sipping coffee and munching on croissants like it’s a casual street party. 🏙️☕🥐 Lucky for me, I snagged a seat inside. The café’s modern white building with floor-to-ceiling windows gives off major art gallery vibes. 🎨✨ The staff? Super friendly and efficient. Despite the rush, they kept the good vibes flowing. And the coffee? Top-notch. ☕👌 No wonder this spot’s become a must-visit for Hobart’s coffee and pastry lovers. If you’re in town, don’t miss out. Your taste buds will thank you. 😄 #HobartEats #CroissantGoals #CoffeeCulture #TasmanianDelights #CafeVibes #MustTry #FoodieAdventure

A charming, small Swedish-themed spot offering a variety of pastries. I really enjoyed the filled pretzel and Tosca bun—both were delicious! The hazelnut fancier was a bit dry for my taste. The piccolo and cappuccino were good as well. Service was great, with a clear queue system, though the cashier area felt a bit crowded

I absolutely love this bakery. They have a good selection of pastries, sandwiches, bagels, pretzels, bread loaves and cookies. The coffee were also very good . Highly recommend it for breakfast or brunch or buying a loaf of bread home. This cafe is designed for takeaway, but it has a very small dine-in area with very few chairs.

It's the best bakery shop in Hobart. I ate almost all the bread for 3 days Pastry is really delicious. I recommend toscabun and almond croissants.. The service is so good that if I go again, I will definitely go!

It is decent but not exceptional. The vibe is okay, and the drink options are quite limited—mostly coffee, or juice. The bakery selection is fine for a quick breakfast, but nothing stood out to me. The view is just of the street, but I did appreciate the design of the store—it’s well thought out and pleasant. Worth a visit if you’re nearby, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it.

Have been visited Pigeon Whole at least twice during our January visits to Hobart at since 2017. It has always been an awesome experience. On this visit we picked two baguette sandwiches. A Goat Cheese with grilled onions and greens and. mortadella ham with Swiss, and greens with an aioli sauce. Both were huge and tasty. Big enough for lunch and dinner. We also picked up a package of spiced ginger cookies that were out of this world. A nice bit of coarse salt on each. Service was great and there was a huge line that went quickly. Price for two sandwiches and 5 large cookies a little over 30$ AUDs. A bargain. Highly recommend.

This place has one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had in a minute. Simple fresh perfect portion. Great options after ordering you do have to wait a bit depending on how busy it is to get your coffee and food. If you're in a rush, this might not be the best place. However, after a night of hitting the town, this was perfect for me. I also love how you can see into the bakery section and you will definitely smell the bakery before you reach it.

Our Airbnb host mentioned that she got her sourdough from here, and I remember it being mentioned on a food blog for Tasmania, so we made the drive in hopes of some coffee and baked goods on a chilly morning. Thought they'd have some hot coffee options, but they only had bottled cold brews and a smaller selection of pastries than I imagined a bakery would have. They seem to be more of a bread shop, with shelves of different breads lining the wall behind the cashier and display case. My boyfriend went with a soy cold brew and an almond croissant. We both agreed they were both excellent, although the almond paste in the croissant was a lot darker than ones I've had before and had a bit of a different taste/texture to it. A very clean, modern shop with outdoor lighting and rather limited seats. You won't regret checking it out.

Nice bakery and good selection of bread products. However the bakery isn't keen to cater to dietary requirements. I'm on a low fodmap and dairy free diet but they weren't keen to make any sandwiches or bagel without cheese or pickled veggies. I asked if they can just toast a plain bagel up but they don't have a toaster. I don't think I could come back here again.

The Pigeon has flown into town and Hobart is all the better for it! Jay and co are rocking inside the gorgeous old Mercury building on Argyle street, open seven whole days a week with more incredible baked goods than you can poke a stick at. Get thee to Pigeon Whole Bakers, henceforth.

This tiny hole in the wall - blink and you miss it - was surprisingly open on a Sunday so we had to stop by. They have a small range of awesome offerings, from danish pastries to loaves of bread all baked out back - you literally look into the bakery. It's a little bit expensive, but it's also good quality. Head on by and shout yourself to some good quality baking.

Cute shop fit out and fantastic pastries and cakes. I've had the almond croissant, Eccles cake and sour dough donut (with dulce de leche flavoured filling). They were all delicious. There is a small area to eat in but it's more of a takeaway set up. Goods are pricey but in my opinion, worth it. Wish I had one in my home town!
