Not to be outdone by its over-the-bridge counterpart, Hobart’s Eastern Shore is becoming quite the foodie destination. When it comes to an AM caffeine hit, east-siders have plenty of options, with new specialty coffee spots popping up all over. From Rosny to Seven Mile Beach, here are the best places to grab a cup of the good stuff on the east side of the Derwent. 

With early 1800s beginnings as an enclave for both working-class dock workers and merchant sailors, the remarkably well-preserved Battery Point is now a Hobart must-visit. From caffeine lovers’ havens and bakeries, to all-day brunch and gourmet toasties, you’ll start your day off right in the capital city’s most historic suburb.
