As a luxury lounge bar, Evolve offers a sophisticated and intimate hospitality experience on Hobart’s historic waterfront. Its ornate design, rare spirits list and engaging service are befitting of Hobart’s most enviable wharfside location, within the MACq 01 Hotel building.Humans have long tried to understand our world, explaining its complexities through theories of spirituality, biology, geography and astronomy. This insatiable thirst for understanding fuelled a period of unprecedented discovery during the 1800s with the mapping of our globe, the industrial revolution and the collection of countless botanical, zoological and geological artefacts. Our minds expanded with curiosity as mysterious fossils were uncovered; answering some questions, but presenting thousands more.

VENUE: Lively, comfortable, plenty of space and a lovely view of the waterfront. FOOD: Quickly prepared, delicious, filling and dutifully presented. SERVICE: One of the staff was pretty rude to us, but the rest of the staff more than made up for it with their patient, helpful and respectful attitude. SUMMERY: I would highly recommend the Boardwalk Bistro to my friends and colleges despite some negative parts of the experience.

We were seated at a table for 2 by the window. The staff were very friendly & polite. The food was delicious. My husband had the burger & I had the porterhouse. Both meals were delicious. We then shared the brownie which was YUM!!!!!!!! We will certainly be going back again sometime to celebrate another special occasion.

We had a great dinner at Hampden Bistro last night. The service and food were both excellent. Steaks were well portioned and cooked perfectly. It was their first night open but there was no sense of that and everything ran smoothly and efficiently. Highly recommend.
