Disappointed after hype from friends. Food took forever. Of my two poached eggs, one was under-cooked with runny whites, the other was hard-boiled. Everything else was ok, but nothing stood out as being noteworthy.

In town for a couple of days a mate and I were looking for a good brunch spot but Lo and behold we found one! The place is unpretentious and has a pretty good kit-out. The geometric detailed interior and climbing plant wall are simple but effective interiors, and the place which might have been a gas station previously has a lot of outdoor seating. The food menu is pretty short, breakfast and lunch is served all day and had some tried and true staples and some unexpected options. I’m sure the menu changes frequently, but I had the baked eggs with sweet corn polenta, eggplant pickle and sausage, my mate had the breakfast ramen, which looked absolutely fantastic! The coffee was pretty good for Tasmania(no shade) and the wait staff were babes. I’d go back if in a heart-beat.

good good good. SUCH a cute little place! The wait staff was so lovely and friendly. I ordered the«breakfast ramen» and it was unusual but so good! I tried all of my friend’s food and it all tasted great. Also, my chai tea latte was to die for.

Room for a Pony is delicious. I have come here twice in the last two days. My first visit I had the rice porridge which was good but not amazing. The second day I had the potato rosti, with poached eggs and pumpkin. It was absolutely delicious, I would definitely say I destroyed that meal. As well as good food, the staff are also very friendly and efficient. You can split bills which is also handy and you can bring you furry friend along if you’re sitting outside.

I really liked this place! It’s trendy, but not pretentious and the food was delicious! I had the baked eggs with a side of avocado. It was fresh and tasty and not too much. The staff were really friendly and service was fast. Would definitely come back next time I’m in Hobart

HEY! Why isn’t anybody talking about the Pony yet? The Pony was definitely my favourite place to be in late 2014, and I reckon it’ll remain around the top of my list in 2015. Room for a Pony opened in an old gas station space opposite the Republic back in November and I’ve been there half a dozen times since. Only that many? Man, I need to remedy that, because it’s great. It’s so great. The menu is exciting and delicious, from the breakfast options through the lunch options(all of them available all day). I’ll recommend the fish fingers in particular, because I still think about that meal. The large coffees come in great shaped mugs. HOT: + SPLITBILLSWITHEASE! + ALLDAYBREAKFAST! + AWESOMESEATINGBOTHINDOORSANDOUTDOORS! + GREATCOFFEE! + ATTRACTIVEWAITSTAFF! Ok, enough shouting. Everybody go here, but not all at once and not when I go because I still want to get a seat easily whenever I want. Good.
