Glebe Hill is shaping up as the eastern shore\u2019s newest fast-food strip, with a Hungry Jack\u2019s having opened at the precinct on Friday.<\/p>\n

The burger chain is part of a $7.5 million development that also includes a KFC and a service station on the same site.<\/p>\n

The plans were first lodged with the Clarence City Council in April 2024 and approved the following month.<\/p>\n

The site sits next to the Glebe Hill Village shopping centre, which opened in 2022 with a McDonald\u2019s, Coles supermarket and other stores.<\/p>\n

The Hungry Jack\u2019s, on Commerce Drive, trades from 6am to 11pm and employs about 65 people.<\/p>\n

It is the chain\u2019s first store on Hobart\u2019s eastern shore and has self-service kiosks, a shared dining area and a drive-thru.<\/p>\n

Hungry Jack\u2019s Tasmanian general manager George Chrisan said the location filled a gap for eastern shore customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know there\u2019s a bit of friendly rivalry between the eastern and western shore, so we\u2019re excited that Tassies will no longer have to cross the bridge to get their hands on their flame-grilled favourites,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The chain will next open an outlet at Hobart Airport once an upgraded terminal is finished in early 2027, employing about 50 people.<\/p>\n

That store is part of a $200 million terminal expansion that will double the size of the departures area, add seating and build a new arrivals corridor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Glebe Hill is shaping up as the eastern shore\u2019s newest fast-food strip, with a Hungry Jack\u2019s having opened…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":762932,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[64,63,99],"class_list":["post-762931","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/762931","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=762931"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/762931\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/762932"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=762931"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=762931"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=762931"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
