Farzi Hobart

Last updated April 2026

Farzi in Battery Point is Hobart’s most playful kid-friendly restaurant, where little ones aren’t just tolerated—they’re celebrated. The open kitchen lets kids watch chefs craft their meals, turning dinner into a mini show, while the bright, airy space feels like a playground you can eat in. Parents rave about the relaxed vibe and the fact that the menu actually has healthy options kids will willingly devour. It’s the kind of place where a fussy eater might surprise everyone by finishing their veggies. With views over the Derwent River and a menu designed for tiny hands and big appetites, it’s a Battery Point staple for families exploring Hobart’s south side. **What to Bring** A small toy or colouring book for the wait. A light jumper—Battery Point can be breezy by the water. Your appetite, because the portions are generous. **Best Age Range** Best for 2 to 10 year olds—toddlers love the high chairs and space to move, while older kids adore the interactive kitchen views. **Good to Know** No bookings taken for lunch, so arrive early on weekends. Metered parking lines Castray Esplanade, but spots fill fast. Dinner is quieter and equally kid-friendly. Closed Mondays. **Nearby** Stroll down to the historic wharves at Salamanca Place for a post-meal wander. Or visit the Pirates Bay playground in Sandy Bay for an oceanfront play break. **Tips From Other Parents** Bring a card game or book for the inevitable wait—even if it’s short, kids get restless. Order the ‘Mini Chef’ meals; they’re designed to be eaten quickly by restless diners. Take a stroll along the waterfront after eating—kids love watching the boats and seals.
