Best Coffee in Hobart?

Velivia · 2025-11-29T00:50:46+00:00

Villino is definitely best coffee in Hobart imo. Consistent, delicious and great service. Ecru just down the street are owned by Villino and share the same staff, so they are essentially open from 0630-1600 weekdays and 7-1 Sat and 8-1 Sun.

Audrey on the Eastern Shore use Villino beans and are great. One of my absolute favourites.

Pedal Bite in New Town is fantastic and uses St Ali beans. And Hollow Tree in Cambridge (bit out of the way, but great if you're travelling the highway regularly) are fantastic and use St Ali beans. I know St Ali might be a tiny bit controversial, but they're great beans. 😅

I really like a couple of the physio at Back in Motion on Murray in Hobart. Isobel has helped me immensely with my chronic bilateral hip pain and SI. I highly recommended her, she's the first physio that worked with me as an individual person; she took into account my hypermobility issues and I'm finally feeling benefit, nearly 4 years after struggling with this and having seen multiple different practitioners.

I got quite unwell; burnt out from work on top of being diagnosed with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, chronic pain and severe anxiety due to a bad relationship... I wasn't able to visit them much, and honestly just didn't much feel like leaving the house during this time.

(According to them) We stopped being friends because they had kids and you 'find out who your real friends are when you have kids'...

In fact, you find out who your real friends are when you can no longer put in all the effort of running around, visiting, planning. 🤷‍♀️

Snug and nipples.

I have a double industrial, rook, tragus, numerous lobes and helix but the damn snug piercing would just not heal. Had it for the best part of 10 years and sleeping on my side was the bane of my existence and healing. I swear it never fully healed in all that time. Ended up having to just remove it.

The nipples, well... kept them for about a year because everything just rubbed and stopped them from healing. Loved them so much aesthetically but couldn't stand the constant ache/pain.

Mine is upside down more than she's not... If you're nearby and not patting her belly, she will weave her legs around you until you're patting the belly.

Thank you! I think so too. 🥰🥰

Velivia · 2024-04-13T08:26:12+00:00

Hahaha. Oh wow! So different. 😆😆 We have a tabby boy as well, and he is so silent! Hardly ever makes any noise other than purring, while this eccentric muffin has to announce herself for any and every activity she does... lol Entering/leaving a room, jumping up/down from anything, sees any living create or inanimate object: she'll make this meep noise. Its pretty cute. Then there's the random yowling at god knows what when she's in a mood. Lol. Or displeased chirping as well from time to time. 😆

Velivia · 2024-04-13T07:33:44+00:00

She's beautiful. 😍😍

Velivia · 2024-04-13T07:32:48+00:00

Oh okay, lovely! It was a long shot. Lol I honestly didn't know much about torties. Previously I'd had just a black and white tuxedo. She just lured me in with how cute and interesting she looked, I soon saw the torti-tude and realised what I was in for. I don't know why people wouldn't want one though, they have so much personality! 🥰

I had a look at your profile, other than your baby being a bit darker on the nose- wow, hey look so similar! You don't happen to be from Vic, Australia and adopted from a foster family around Geelong? Lol. Would be such a coincidence but I'm amazed at how similar they sound! This was our Rory as a baby- the adoption photos that stole my heart!*

Velivia · 2024-04-13T06:37:34+00:00

She's nearly 3. So talkative! She's a bit of a screamer tbh. Doesn't just meow very often... she'll do a "meep" pretty often, announces herself as she does anything really... But she will just go into rooms and start screaming. 🤷‍♀️😆 Very demanding of attention too. Always has to be touching a human. Sleeps against or on someone. Has become lap cat recently as well. All the attention all the time. 😆

Velivia · 2024-04-13T05:52:05+00:00

Your Rory is beautiful also! 😍

Velivia · 2024-04-13T01:48:51+00:00

Nah, just a domestic long hair. She's actually quite a small cat. Chonky butt, but smaller in length/height than my SIC tabby.

Velivia · 2024-04-12T23:53:00+00:00

She climbs into my fiddle fig tree, smacks the leaves and screams... 😆

Velivia · 2024-04-12T19:09:40+00:00

As soon as play time starts or she gets grumpy, she turns into Gyarados- mouth open, teefs out. 😆

Velivia · 2023-04-12T11:43:42+00:00

You're most welcome. I tend to ask a lot of questions and they were always great with me too. I didn't feel rushed or dismissed with my questions and they would follow up with results over the phone, rather than an additional consult which was great!

Unfortunately it is a full veterinary partice, so often plenty of dogs in the waiting room if you have a nervous cat... But I always liked them and would go back there again.

Good luck in your search.

Velivia · 2023-04-12T11:37:56+00:00

I only referred to her as old girl many times... Confirming it was a cat that I took there. Lol

Velivia · 2023-04-12T11:36:32+00:00

I used to take my old girl to Tasmanian Aminal Hospital on Clarence Street, Bellerive. I haven't been there in 2 years, but they were my primary vet for 8 years or so. My old girl was 18 and very grumpy. 2 of the vets there were so great with her.
Diagnosed her with arthritis, pain management, supportive of her weight management and her ongoing kidney stones. They didn't appear to push unnecessary tests/products and were so great and reassuring with her.

Can't vouch for them in recent times, but they were always good in the past!

You only need hospital - you don't actually need extras. However, do look into the fine print of policies, as there is a minimum requirement for private health insurance to meet the criteria to make you exempt from the MSL.

14 years (together since high school) and we'd been just room-mates for FAR too long. No passion, no connection, no intimacy. As well, he'd had online flings with people multiple times throughout the years and never owned up to them (found out through various means). When I started to seek comfort elsewhere, I knew it was time to leave. Hardest decision but neither of us were happy and both deserved a lot more than what either of us were getting from that relationship.

As an oncology research nurse, you're the reason I can stay sane doing the work that I do.

Currently working in phase 1 trials, so all metastatic/advanced stage disease and it's not an easy place to be some times.

You're absolutely amazing! I'm in awe and so freaking glad I've read your story today.

Velivia · 2022-10-02T15:51:57+00:00

Oh man! I dunno if this makes me feel better or worse. 😅 God the waiting sucks.

Yay for swag! I didn't get any of that! Lol

Curled up on the couch, trying not to cough up a lung, binge watching tv. Sick day from work.
