Hobart locals need only cross the River Derwent for Canadian influenced fare, as Gastown East on Cambridge Road in Bellerive delivers a unique menu brimming with enchanting choices. The restaurant is cosy and modern with an open kitchen highlighted by sleek, dark furniture, forest green walls and a large picnic-style communal table, along with two different alfresco spaces one of which has direct water views. A chic share-style menu boasts Canadian brunch classics like poutine: frites, cheese curds and gravy or sweet options such as the Hockey Puck: hand-stretched dough similar to a doughnut (or beavertail) with your choice of topping.
