Republic Bar & Cafe

The foods are so good. South chicken burger so juicy. And slow cook shank is amazing. Staff so friendly and knowledgeable. Good vibe and music. Nice place to go with friends.

I had a great time at Republic Bar & Café in North Hobart! The atmosphere was lively, welcoming, and full of energy. The live music created such a fun vibe—especially the artist who performed that night . The staff were friendly and attentive, and the service was smooth even though the place was busy. Drinks were well-made, and the overall experience felt vibrant and memorable. It’s definitely one of the best spots in Hobart for good music, a relaxed crowd, and an authentic bar experience. I’ll be back for sure!

I haven't been here for quite some time so I thought I was about due to have a meal here. Staff were friendly enough and I decided to go a parma which I hadn't had for awhile. It was served with fries and salad. The food didn't take long to come and was quite delicious. But....... It did seem like the place could for with a good clean as the first table I came across was quite sticky to the touch. So much so I had to move to another table which seemed to be better, but not by much. Would I go back again? Not sure about that. Doesn't have the same feel it had a few years back.

Saturday night at approx. 1045pm I was told to leave this venue by security after bar staff ordered them to make me leave. I asked why I was being asked to leave they told me "it doesn't matter why you are leaving now" I asked again why they would not provide me with an answer. After a minute or 2 of debate about why I was being made to leave the security guards grabbed me and threw me on the ground. Very poor form by the duty manger on the night and the security guards who could not use any form of communication and would rather try to use excessive force to make me leave the venue. For reference all i did prior to this happening was joking around wiping some chalk off a small blackboard that said "Private Party" which was well and truly over. We were just trying to sit by the heaters to keep warm on a windy cold night.

Love it. Good vibe. Cool seating. Great food and the Service from Lewis today was very helpful, prompt and Funny! I love to go there when its quiet but you never feel pushed to order ...... Love the couch/old mirrors/chandelier corner and the drinks are quite well priced. Happy customer.

The outside dining room is great especially when the band started. Food and service are good. Currently $7 pints for tap beer, but not stouts.

We went for quiz night. Food was good , however I should have gone medium with my scotch fillet and not medium rare. The Jack Daniels sauce was amazing.

Spacious haven for anyone looking for live music, chill vibes, and a bevvie or two. Indoor/outdoor seats, friendly staff, tasty bites. Perfect for post-work unwind or casual catch-ups.
