What visitors mention
Smolt Kitchen is a neighbourhood cafe and pizza restaurant on the corner of Hill Street and Lansdowne Crescent in West Hobart, popular for its brunch menu and evening pizzas. Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables, including a few right on the footpath.
The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating area, with a few tables on the footpath itself. Keep your dog leashed and secured to the table or chair while you eat. Dogs are not permitted inside the cafe. Staff will usually bring out a water bowl if you ask.
Good to know. The menu runs from a hearty brunch through to sourdough pizza in the evenings, with good coffee throughout. It is a busy, family-friendly local spot, so footpath tables can fill up fast on weekends.
Getting there. Smolt Kitchen is at 107-109 Hill Street, West Hobart. Free street parking is available on Hill Street and the surrounding residential streets, though it is a popular area so allow a few extra minutes to find a spot.
Nearby with the dogs. Knocklofty Reserve is a short drive or walk away and makes a good pre-brunch leg-stretch, with on-lead and off-lead sections. Confirm current signage at the reserve entrance before letting your dog off lead.
Best for a relaxed footpath coffee or brunch before or after a walk at Knocklofty, rather than a sit-down dinner with your dog in tow.
