Berta - NORTH HOBART

First decent coffee in Tasmania this visit.Charming little cafe, walked in to see people waiting for a table ... always a good sign. I had the French toasted brioche, with strawberries, pistachios and whipped ricotta..heaven... my daughter had the corn fritters, only complaint was they were a bit greasy due to being deep fried not pan fried but she still found her meal to be very tasty. Would definitely visit again.

Food was good and flavoursome but unfortunately the worst service EVER. Waited 10 mins for a menu and water, coffees took 30 mins to arrive. Granted it was a Sunday morning, had to ask twice for water. Wrong food was delivered. Waiters complaining about customers hanging around after meals - what ever happened to the customer is always right? No apology of the inconvenience it caused us. Awful service well and truly has turned us off returning.

Yuuuum! We loved Berta. We waited for a seat on a busy Sunday morning and so glad we did. Best brekky we could find in Hobart - seriously Yum! Corn fritters 10/10. Thanks Berta.

Stodgy food, very heavy on eggs. Went for late lunch (1.20pm) after various delays - the first shock was asking for the wine list (at our last visit there was a list of 6 or so wines chalked up on the board) and was told ONE white wine by the glass (Milton Pinot gris - very mediocre). Too late to go anywhere else - the venison ragu was acceptable, the fishcakes dry and boring and the side dish of "crispy potatoes" was anything but, basically wedges which were yellow and soft. Will not be returning, at $78 for 2 dishes and 2 glasses of wine never again

Always our top choice for brunch. The Hash is to die for. I love the chai lattes - best in town. Definitely recommend
