Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Fantastic markets, great fresh produce, butcher and bakery also perfect. Best to get there early, pay for parking even on a Sunday..

    We went on a Friday to the shops which must carry 80% Tasmanian goods to be located here. It was nice to see the crafts, locally made goods and different artisans. We look forward to seeing the Salamanca market which is only on Saturdays.

    If you're in Hobart when the markets are on they are well worth a visit. We explored the variety of craft, food and drink stalls before find a table and chairs and sitting back enjoying a glass or two of Hurly Burly pinot noir which was very good, listening to the entertainment and enjoying the best spring rolls from Filipino Street food.

    Main stream shops you would expect to see in any US or Sydney mall. Not really worth the walk around.

    We visited in April 2022 and then I lost my beautiful lap earrings and Mel recently replaced and sent to the UK speedily, along with three new items I could not resist buying. Rare and Beautiful make gorgeous unique pieces and I wear my gum leaf earrings to death (now have them in silver too). The customer service recently provided (I am an Aussie living in the UK) was exemplary. Really pleased.

    There are several small art/craft shops in Salamanca. All sell wonderful items, lots of wood, some jewellery. Probably not the place for interstate travellers to fall in love with items because of their bulk and weight.

    Well positioned shop that offers a wide range of locally made and sourced goods for sale. We were particularly impressed with the beautiful range of paintings and photographs of birds and wilderness and nature settings.

    There was also a wide range of other goods for sale with similar themes including jewellery, stationery, books, guides, homewares, soaps, some clothing items and other produce such as teas and olive oils etc.

    Prices though, appeared to be geared to the tourist market.

    One of our drivers on the Red Decker recommended that the arcade was worth a visit to see the Cat and Fiddle Clock. I was enjoying my coffee at Muffin Break when the cat played the fiddle and the cow jumped over the moon. Right on the hour - " hey, diddle, diddle the cat plays his fiddle, the cow jumps over the moon, the little dog laughs". There are various tenancies and a Myer store.

    Lots of shops and eateries. Must visit "The Cat and the Fiddle" on the hour if you have children. Has Woolworths and Chemistwarehouse if you are staying long.

    The only place in Hobart to get the best contemporary art. We love coming here every other year and buying a new piece. No where else in Hobart like it.

    Beautiful gallery, incredible range of Tasmanian made products to buy. Art objects, homewares, garden sculptures, jewellery, lighting & stunning Tasmanian timbers. Lovely, friendly staff. Prices from $5 to $5000. Best retail gallery in Tasmanian for sure!

    This is a great little store jam packed with great buys. I always walk away with something from here when visiting Hobart. The book selection is amazing.
