Overview

If you’re wandering through Hobart and have a sweet tooth that needs satisfying, well, you can’t go wrong with a stop at Van Diemens Land Creamery. Nestled in Constitution Dock, this floating ice cream shop has been slinging scoops since 2005, and boy, are they good at it.

First off, let’s talk about the experience. Picture yourself chilling on a dock, the sun kissing your skin, and you’re tasting ice cream that’s been lovingly crafted by a local dairy-farming family. It’s a true “handcrafted happiness” vibe. You can choose from a mind-blowing 24 flavors that change up regularly—like, do I even need to say “pepperberry and leatherwood honey”? Yeah, it’s a thing, and it’s delightful!

And speaking of delightful—have you ever just stood in awe of the variety? From lavender and chocolate to lemon myrtle and peach, the flavors just dance on your tongue. I mean, I could make a meal out of that salted caramel alone, but then again, there’s also ginger ice cream that has real bits of ginger in it. Talk about hitting the spot!

Now, I must say the line can be a little daunting, winding out the door and all, but like they say, good things come to those who wait. And the staff? Super friendly, always ready with a smile, making your experience feel cozy even when you’re balancing a cone on a boat!

If you’re in the area during the week, you can swing by for a scoop (or two) from 12 pm to 9 pm—weekends are even better with extended hours, perfect for after-dinner treats! Plus, they’ve got options for takeaway or dine-in, if you prefer to enjoy your ice cream while soaking in the views.

Oh, did I mention it’s family-friendly? Kids and adults alike can enjoy the goodness. But a heads-up: it’s not the best if you’re wheelchair-bound, with a few stairs to navigate down.

All in all, Van Diemens Land Creamery offers an experience that could easily turn into a tradition for visitors and locals. So next time you find yourself in Hobart, get ready to indulge; happiness is just a scoop away!
