Museum of Old and New Art AKA MONA is Hobart’s most picture-perfect spot, but there’s more to it than meets the eye. This Instagram-friendly Tasmanian museum is located within the Moorilla winery and it also offers many amazing dining options to its visitors.

Faro Bar + Restaurant

If you’re looking for a fancy dinner in a lavish environment after your visit to MONA, Faro is the place to be. It offers a sleek modern experience, a beautiful location, and an extensive menu offering a wide range of seafood and local specialties.

Another great option for fans of fine dining, this stylish art museum restaurant is known for its contemporary French foods, robust wine list, and amazing water views.

If fine dining simply isn’t your thing, and you want to have a low-key experience and enjoy some comfort foods, head to this American diner-inspired spot with a great selection of burgers.

Moorilla Wine Bar             

Due to its location within the Moorilla winery, a visit to MONA is incomplete without some wine tasting. The best place to do it is Moorilla Wine Bar, which offers a great selection of wines, share plates, and seasonal treats.

The Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) is located in Hobart, Tasmania. It is the largest privately funded museum in the Southern Hemisphere and is an offering from David Walsh, a millionaire who wished to give something back to the community where he grew up.

The museum contains all the pieces which have caught Walsh’s eye over the years – 1,900 to be precise. From Stone Age arrowheads and Roman coins to surrealist contemporary art, Walsh has selected an eclectic range of art.

What makes the museum particularly special is its surroundings. The setting surrounding the museum is one of the most beautiful in the world and it has been filled with wonderful art installations. As visitors arrive, they can watch dolphins playing in the surrounding waters, making the experience truly unique.

The atmosphere inside the museum is intentionally ominous. There are no windows and much of the museum is built underground. Walsh intended to pull visitors into a secret world and upon arrival, guests descend down a seemingly endless flight of stairs.

The MONA is frequently voted one of the greatest museums in the world and Lonely Planet place it above New York’s MoMA and London’s Tate Modern. Hobart many not be on many people’s bucket list, but the MOMA should definitely put it on your radar.
