“Tasmanian Beef Specialist” Located in the historic art deco Luck’s Butchery shop in Launceston, Tasmania, Black Cow showcases grass fed, free range, hormone free, dry aged, premium Tasmanian beef including brands from Cape Grim, Greenhams, Clover Country, King Island and Flinders Island amongst others. Legislation in Tasmania against the use of hormone growth promotants and antibiotics in red meat production combined with Tasmanian graziers’ focus on free-range grass fed cattle produces happy animals and superior quality meat. A flexible pricing structure and side dishes designed around fresh, local produce allow guests to create the dining experience they desire. Also sporting a well-priced wine list with a heavy emphasis on local Tasmanian wines with some full-bodied reds thrown in for good measure. An energetic atmosphere and friendly professional service completes the Black Cow offering. This casual Bistro style has been a hit with the local community as well as visitors so reservations are essential. A private wine room offers dining for up to 12 guests for those important dinners and negotiations. Open 7 nights a week from 5:30pm to late. The Black Cow logo has been inspired by the amazing ancient artworks in the Lascaux Caves in France. Carbon dating indicates that these paintings are more than 17,000 years old. Black Cow, the name, is a tribute to the Bos Genus… Historically the cow has been important to many cultures. It has been seen and worshiped as a symbol of contentedness, fecundity, the passive yet creative and generative powers of nature, patience, nourishment, abundance, fertility and equifinality. It is also, of course, an excellent source of protein.

Amazing steak cooked to perfection! Ordered the rib eye on bone to share between 2 which was plenty. The truffle sauce is amazing and went well with the mushrooms. Kingfish entree was amazing. Only down side was it was busy and we had to wait about 15 minutes past our booking time.

Black cow bistro has meat made from the finest cows that will truly moo-ve your taste buds. Plus the experience was simply bovine! We recommend the medium rare cooking of the steaks, as that has to be the best way of enjoying your dining here most, and that’s no bull!

Great spot if you love your steak. The team at Black cow will take great care of you and you will enjoy every minute and every mouthful. A big shout out to Maddy who did such a great job of making us feel welcome and answered all our imposing questions about everything from the carrot to the gin. The rib eye to share was just right for us. There are better cuts, but this suited us well, a good price point for what you get. It was cooked to perfection and the accompanying sides made for a wonderful meal. The wines are great - worth asking about a matching wine and do try and find a local Tasmanian one. We also tried the Hartshorn Distillery Sheep Whey Gin it is amazing and if you like gin (or even if you don't) you should give it a try. Do try and save room for dessert the Frozen Caramel Slice was great, but the lemon tart was also amazing.
