Rockwall Bar & Grill
Restaurant in Hobart

The win of this addition to the Hobart dining scene comes as no surprise to those who know Susan Catchpool and Garry Baker. A combination of National Trust classified buildings and a unused city, Hobart offers old world charm and a palpable sense of history. Steady in 1803, Hobart’s sea trade and shipbuilding industry began to prosper in the 1830s around the warehouses of Salamanca Place. These buildings, including that which houses Rockwell, are among st the maximum ravishing sandstone Georgian warehouses in Australia. Having worked in the restaurant trade for more than 20 years, Susan recognized Hobart’s need for an establishment which offers quality Tasmanian food in a relaxed environment. This amazing warehouse has withstood the test of time and has been artfully outfitted to accommodate new and relaxed dining.

Rockwell offers an extensive wine list and can match the dishes with wine available by the glass. Begin with the oysters that Susan has sourced from Bruno Island or the local specialty, Tasmanian rock lobster pate. The cony midsection has been architecturally enhanced to make the maximum of the spontaneous sandstone and glass atrium. Tables have been placed with discretion in mind, so it’s ideal for business lunches requiring original and strategic planning. Then Rockwell is the place to be seen. If you prefer, pop in for a glass of wine at the last of your active day.
