- Visit the Farm Gate Market on Sunday mornings (Bathurst St) for the absolute best local produce, from heirloom vegetables to artisan cheeses and bread.
- Hobart shuts down relatively early on weeknights. For a lively evening, head to the bars and restaurants in Salamanca, the waterfront, or North Hobart.
