Chef plating a dry-aged steak
Our Story

Hobart, on fire.

Born in the heart of Hobart, Darby & Co. brings together the best of Tasmania — premium local produce, expertly aged meats, open-fire cooking and a dining experience built around connection.

Origin

A steakhouse for the way we eat now.

We built Darby & Co. because Hobart deserved a steakhouse without the stiffness — a place where the food is serious but the room isn't. Where locals can duck in for a martini and a rib-eye at the bar, and where a birthday table can stretch late into the night without anyone hurrying you out.

The philosophy is simple: source the best of the island, cook it over fire, pair it with wines that have a story, and get out of the way.

Tasmanian wilderness
The Island

Tasmania grows the best in the world. We just cook it.

From the pastured beef of the Midlands to oysters pulled from Coles Bay this morning — we work with the growers, farmers and fishers who make this island a quiet global capital of produce.

Dry-aged in-house

Selected cuts, aged on the bone in our cellar until the flavour hums.

Warm hospitality

A team that knows the wines, the farmers, and — usually — your name.

Fire, always fire

Everything hero touches the coals. It's the oldest trick, and still the best.
