About Aloft
Aloft takes up the top level of Brooke Street Pier on the Hobart waterfront. The pier itself is a floating four-storey pontoon that moves up and down with the tide, so the dining room sits right over the water of Sullivans Cove. The room is open plan, with tables along the windows facing the harbour and a run of bar stools looking straight into the kitchen. Guests at the bar can watch the chefs plating each course in front of them. For private functions the whole restaurant can be hired exclusively. It seats up to 50 people for a dinner, or holds up to 100 for a stand-up event, and the team says it can work with a range of budgets. The kitchen builds its food around Tasmanian producers and the seasons, and there is no a la carte. Dinner is a chef's menu, with vegetarian, vegan and pescatarian versions offered every night, and the dishes shift with what the market has. A matched drinks pairing can be added to the chef's menu, drawing on Tasmanian wines. Minimum spends apply to exclusive hire, and the exact figure is set when the team quotes for your date and numbers.
