Central Bar & Restaurant

Very nice and warm service. Great food. Beautiful views outside and nice location.

Love the beef and lamb. Cocktails are great as well.

Though due to my poor and not-very-clear expression made some confusions, the service was great.

Lovely meal, friendly staff. Busy on a Friday.

Tasty meals, huge portions. We had a bit of wait due to how busy it was, but wasn't too bad.
Staff were exceptionally helpful when our booked group expanded unexpectedly and were able to accommodate our extras. Much appreciated!

We have visited twice and the second time Crystal said 'welcome back!' She is a wonderful asset to the business and you should be very proud of her. I also want to mention Evan who looked after our table with a smile. It's a great place and I will recommend it to all who are looking for a high quality pub experience in Devonport.

Beautiful meal ,had steak, chips, mushroom sauce, hubby had the veggies, both were delicious, well done to the cook today 😋 lovely table service

Edited comment 16/5/23 left ratings the same as previously because one meal does not ruin it for all the other delicious meals they have.
Lamb couscous salad is absolutely revolting. On the upside it looks colourful and delicious and the rocket and tomatoes were fresh. The downside was the lamb was very sparse, chopped so small into TINY cubes and dried out to almost leather. I assumed lamb loin fillets would be meat I could actually see and eat. Tatziki had absolutely no flavour at all. Not a hint of lemon or garlic. The balsmic was the tiniest drizzle and made no impact on flavour. This is the worst dish I have ever eaten out. The Tasmanian wine we wanted to order was not available, the chicken roulade 2 of us had decided on was not available.
The bacon pizette is still delicious!

Fast service. Wide variety of meals. Portion sizes good. Slightly more expensive than other places but worth it. The bacon pizette is delicious.

Not your average pub food! Excellent food served in a good atmosphere whilst watching a ship sail past the window

Another great place to sit and relax. Nice food friendly service and watch the Spirit chuck a u-ee in the river. Reasonable pricing. Absolutely wonderful food.

The staff were incredible and so welcoming. Lovely food. Great spot to have dinner while waiting for the Spirit of Tas

Really enjoyed dinner in the restaurant and few drinks in the pub. Loved the rustic/modern decor and the staff were so friendly and professional. Great sofas in the bar and few of the ferries coming or going. Great pub menu, the Pasta was delicious, lots fo sauce and serving was big. Lamb pizza had some great flavours with a slightly spicy dressing. The garlic bread with some grilled cheese was a treat! Large selection of drinks. Highly recommend this bar/restaurant and I will visit again .

Garlic bread, Ham & mushroom Pizza, Garlic Chicken & Central Chicken risotto (special board dish) All very delicious! Great atmosphere and wonderful customer service

Had a wonderful Chrissy luncheon today with 40 others . Service staff were very efficient & friendly . I loved my meal “Sticky bourbon lamb ribs “ with sweet potato chips & slaw absolutely delicious & plentiful , definitely will come back ❤

Great feed! Very generous servings - the open steak sandwich was extremely tasty, and the loaded cookie was easily big enough to share. Check it out if youre getting on/hopping off the Spirit of Tasmania!

Friendly staff n helpful
Great choice of meals on menu
Enjoyed my steak salad n chips 😋

Absolutely delicious meal in Formby hotel. Best seafood fettuccini I've ever had. Thanks Chef, you are top notch.

They were so incredibly accommodating and everyone enjoyed their meals. Fantastic 😊

Had a work function there on a Friday night. Was greeted warmly by several members of the team, nothing was too much trouble. Crystal who looked after us for the night felt like she was part of the fun and the communication was great. They even catered for some dietary needs without notice, without blinking an eyelid. Service worth way more than what we paid for it. Will definitely rebook next time.

What a fabulous dinner, excellent food, brilliant wines and super friendly staff. Will certainly make sure we go back again.

I'd give 5* for my food, but my husband thought the potatoes could have had more flavour! However, we both enjoyed our outing, and the staff were incredible. We will return

Good value. Great food. Friendly staff. Quick service.
