Small Fry

Hobart


Hip Small Fry sure is small, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in character. Conversation comes naturally at the shared steel counter: sip some soup, a coffee or a glass of wine; talk, listen, laugh, chew some brisket or power into an omelette. It's a flexible vibe designed to 'avoid labels'. Love the wooden menu cubes!
