Evolve Spirits Bar

Great atmosphere, customer service & drink selection. Best cocktails in town. Food is good too.

Absolutely love this bar, so far my favourite in Hobart.
Well-designed menu with all kinds of drinks. The staff are happy to make the drinks based on your personal preference. My friend and I had a great time there. The staff were super friendly and passionate about explaining the drinks to us. I had Spring Rose, which I loved - a little sweet, fruity and refreshing. The fossil inside the tables is quite interesting to read.

Although this bar has an amazing amount of different spirits it is the decor, ambience and service that make Evolve a wonderfully unique experience.

Cocktails were fine however they took around half an hour to be made even though when we were there it was an almost empty premises and four serving staff. Don't come here if you expect a normal speed of service.

Really enjoyed this bar. Cocktails were yum. We sat there with a liver pate board and the antipasto board. Recommend only getting one board as the antipasto board was much more generous than we had expected! Their full menu is available digitally (and is quite extensive) and includes their whole fossil range for anyone interested!

Absolutely stunning! Staff were friendly and super helpful. If your a whiskey fan, this is the place to be. The space is quite unique and includes a historic collection to admire. Will definitely be back!

Well decorated and well appointed cocktail bar, offering very tasty morsels.

Everything that we ordered was delicious and the cocktails were well done.

There are a number of small tables that are not that great however the table inserts are rather interesting.

Great atmosphere. The staff were lovely. I’m a sherry girl and it’s rarely served properly in a chilled glass when needed- was impressed to see someone got it right! That’s a knowledgeable bartender right there!

Great vibe. Quiet and chilled. The service was great and you look out over Sullivan's Cove. The wall of spirits was amazing. The lighting in the place gives it a relaxed intimate vibe. Definitely worth a visit.

Dan /Bartender/ drink specialist here was amazing! Such a great place, such a great atmosphere. Loved every second here!

I had such a great time here and never gave it the 5 stars it deserved. If I'm in Hobart I always come here with my family. The staff make it the place it is - business would be lost without them 100%.

Friendly and efficient staff. The old fashioned was very well made and there is an extensive selection of spirits to choose from.
The decor is outstanding, lots to look at and learn while enjoying a delicious beverage.
The layout is good for a drink by yourself or a group of friends ready to tie one on.

Great bar at fantastic location. We were greeted with a nice smile and the bartender was able to serve something which wasn't in menu. I didn't order whisky but they have wide variety.loved the decor too, still preferred outside seating. Will go again. Highly recommended

A gorgeous whiskey bar. Location is right on the water. A massive choice of whiskies to choose from with such variety in prices. They also serve cocktails, beers, and gins etc.a place where any alcoholic beverage will be served to you with a smile and class. Absolutely enjoyed the ambiance, decor and sounds. Left feeling relaxed, happy and walking on cloud 9

This is an amazing bar. I loved the selection of whiskies. I am not a big whisky drinker, but I may after this trip.

But you don't just go to Evolve for amazing service, good whisky and water front view. They are all good, but you have some of the best fossils collection in the world. We were blown away with millions of years old dinosaur eggs, mammoth tusks, Siberian bear, etc.

When we visited Tasmania, we were looking forward to MONA, instead we were an Evolve addict. I spent three nights in a row, enjoying whisky and fossil collections.

This is a must!

Amazing Cocktails in a high end speakeasy vibe bar! Beautiful views of the Derwent and a very intimate vibe!

Nice quiet cocktail bar on the water. The view can be disturbed by the docked boats, but the interior is warm and quite cosy, even with animal skeletons on display. You're paying mid $20s for a cocktail, while not terrible given the upmarket setting, it isn't cheap either.

ONE OF THE BEST WHISKEY BARS ANY WHERE HUGE RANGE TO TRY GREAT LOCATION AND EXPERIENCED STAFF ALL WORKS WELL.

Officially my favourite bar in Hobart. Lots of fossils specimens scattered around the small upmarket bar.

Great location, atmosphere, range and knowledgeable staff. Knocklofty gin gets a worthy mention
