Street Eats @ Franko
Experience Hobart like a local as you head to the always amazing and fun filled Street Eats @ Franko.
Although the Street Eats @ Franko season has wrapped up, don’t worry—it’ll be back before you know it!
Held every Friday evening from December to April (4.30pm – 9.00pm), Street Eats @ Franko brings the best of Tasmanian produce to the heart of Hobart.
Sit back and enjoy the live entertainment as you tempt your tastebuds with the freshest ingredients and local beverage selection – everything available has been prepped cooked, brewed or distilled in Tasmania.
Grab a picnic blanket, relax on the grass, and indulge in great food, even better company, and amazing vibes! It’s just a quick 2-minute stroll from the Hotel, so when it returns, we recommend heading over to Franklin Square as soon as it kicks off. The atmosphere will be buzzing with excitement, and as you approach, you’ll catch the scent of delectable Tasmanian street eats drifting your way.
Read on for our recommendations on how to get the most out of your Street Eats @ Franko experience.
Treat your taste buds!
Get ready to explore an array of diverse stalls offering exclusive Tasmanian delights. From irresistible treats to hearty meals, there’s something for every palate.
Pro tip: Grab a few different plates and share with friends—the variety is endless! Don’t miss the locally produced beverage selections; they’re the perfect accompaniment to your culinary journey.
Dance and groove!
Let the music guide your feet from the stalls to the stage. The night market hosts local musicians, turning the square into a makeshift dance floor. Grab your dancing shoes—or, if you're feeling more laid-back, find a cozy spot to enjoy the tunes.
Chill on the grass!
For a more relaxed experience, lay out your picnic blanket in the grassy area. It’s the ideal spot to unwind, surrounded by city lights, good company, and a never-ending selection of bites to enjoy. Share a meal with friends—or make new ones—as you soak up the friendly vibes.
Don’t forget to capture the magic! The vibrant colours, delicious dishes, and smiling faces make for Instagram-worthy moments. As the clock approaches 9:00 pm, take a leisurely stroll back to the hotel. The short 2-minute walk makes it easy to retreat whenever you please.
We can’t wait for Street Eats @ Franko to return this December! In the meantime, stay tuned for updates and get ready for more mouth-watering moments!
