It all kicked off with a passion for cocktails, good vibes, and next-level service.

Rude Boy has been the heart and soul of Hobart’s cocktail scene for almost 9 years now, right in the center of the newly buzzing Mid Town at 130 Elizabeth St.

Our fried chicken? Straight fire. Paired with tropical vibes and award-winning cocktails, every Rude Boy experience is crafted by a team that’s all about passion and energy.

We’re all about throwing epic events, partnering with incredible brands, performers, and local legends to showcase what we do best.

At the core, we’re about bringing friendly, knowledgeable service with a crew that works hard and plays harder. That’s the vibe that keeps us going.

Hobart might be chilly, but at Rude Boy, we’re your ticket to paradise, with the drinks, the food, and the crew to take you there.
