Jailhouse Grill

More than just a good steak


Jailhouse Grill is another Launceston favourite. This steakhouse has an extensive self-serve salad bar with all salads made fresh daily, a wide range of steaks available, as well as a full menu and optional set menu. Kid’s meals are available, as are gluten free options, and a huge wine list.

The Jailhouse Grill is continuing a 140 year tradition by offering fine food and beverage to locals and travellers alike. The building was constructed in the mid 1800s using handmade convict bricks from the brickfields some 500 metres away, and Launceston locals may remember it as The Richmond Hotel, Barnaby’s Hotel or the Ball and Chain Grill - though it was originally named The Prince of Wales.

WHY WE LOVE IT:

  1. Access to the salad bar is free with any main meal purchase!

  2. Great place to hold a large dinner or function

  3. Open 365 days a year
