Motor Yacht Club of Tasmania — Restaurant in Hobart

Avoid this place if you are vegetarian (or have any other basic dietary requirement). They have no vegetarian main course option! The only choice you will have are the mushroom arancini (a small entree of 3 arancini balls) or a Caesar salad with no dressing or bacon (so a bowl of lettuce, essentially).

The manager, Ash I believe her name was, did not seem concerned in the slightest by the lack of a vegetarian option. Rather, she just stated that the menu was at the chef’s discretion and it was his choice to not cook anything vegetarian. Well I guess it is our choice to no longer support the Lindisfarne MYCT. Such a shame after years of having had a vegetarian option and my mother having had her wedding there.

The staff are friendly, the facilities are top-notch, and the whole place has this relaxed, welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay all afternoon. I came for a regatta and ended up sticking around for the company and the atmosphere.

Even if you're not a sailor, it's worth checking out just to soak in the views and have a meal or drink with friends. Five stars from...

Had a day out on a friend's motor yacht and went back to the yacht club for lunch sadly they sparsely tabled lunch area was all reserved but mostly empty which was fine the only other tables that have in the place is by the bar busy Friday afternoon loud drinking yachty's quite disconcerting but we enjoyed the food the staff was fine but the eating area with just horrible it seems that out-of-towners not really welcome as we finished 12 members strolled into the eating area and were served promptly it was a shame to see the area beside the dining room that would have been a nice spot for extra visitors could not be set up as a lunch area I...
