Food Scene

If you love tasty Greek food and are seeking a cheap sit down dinner then this is the place for you. Most dishes are under $15 with quick service, and BYO wine (with corkage $2). A great place to start your night before venturing off to explore the latest nightlife Brisbane has to offer.

Order from a tablet to your traditional Japanese Booth or Go super tradition and sit on the floor. The service here is so quick. Locals play a game here where you time how quick your beer comes after you order through the tablet system.

Perfect matching wine with the degustation. Fantastic food and perfect service. The food is quite expensive so prepare to splurge here, I highly recommend the King fish and the dessert menu.

Drinks & Nightlife

Love this place, the happy hour for burgers and pizza is so affordable and delicious! Service is always good and the atmosphere is comfortable. The Fox is also widely known for their Sunday Sesshes which take off from 7pm. The place usually gets so popular a queue wraps around the lower level door and groups have to put their name on lists and wait to get let in. Arrive earlier to avoid the queue.

The cocktails are to die for - the lemon cheese cake is delicious! They have a large selection of pancakes, sundaes, drinks and other desserts - you can also make your own with the different toppings available. It can get very busy sometimes and food takes a while to come out but if you like desserts its worth the wait.

Upscale modern Austral-asian restaurant, serving asian classics with fresh Australian produce. The dishes are well thought out and the flavour combinations we great. They also have a good selection of beverages. Love sitting on the deck looking over the Story Bridge, River and Kangaroo Point Cliffs while enjoying a fabulous meal.

The bartenders were very friendly and helpful, they even made us some custom cocktails. They have a wide variety of cocktail options, along with a variety of spirits and on tap options. The view of the river and story bridge from the seating outside is spectacular.

X- Cargo is a new venue made of shipping containers in the Valley. I recommend an awesome spot in one of the top containers and had a great view over the levels and dance floor. Perfect atmosphere and design with the fairy lights and murals.

Great share food platters and Newstead Beers are now available all across Queensland so really becoming a household name. Always best to try on tap at the Brewery though. Best beer for me is the session ale, especially if you are planning on spending a few hours there. If your looking for some activity while you drink, The Boo is great for some barefoot bowls. It is the only private bowls club in Australia so no angry professional bowlers to deal with.

Arts & Culture

One of the great places to visit if you're in Brisbane either as a tourist visiting or a local yourself. The exhibit changes throughout seasons and they are all interesting. The main exhibit usually will always have an entry price but it's well worth it. You just have to check the website for all the previous ones they have done. Good place to go on quiet dates and get "cultured".

Excellent facility for all of the cultural events that are held. Would recommend coming early if you would like to buy food or drink as the bar can be quite busy during each event.

The Triffid is a great local spot to enjoy a good beer (many local and domestic craft beers available on tap or in bottle). Sit down and relax with friends in their cosy beer garden or watch one of the live concerts that regularly take place with many up and coming artists. If you're looking for a bite to eat you cannot miss their $25 meal deal where you get 2 burgers, chips and beers which is great for sharing.

Shopping

Loved this market. A great, great many stalls of quality produce and locally crafted wares. All lining the treelined walkway through Davies park. This is easily one of the most enjoyable "farmers markets" I have ever visited.

Entertainment & Activities

Possibly one of the best cinemas in Brisbane, tickets are way cheaper than normal and food is also decently priced. Sushi bar conveniently located to the left of it, so no shortage of food options. Arcade area is the largest I have ever seen in any cinema I’ve been to, nearly as big as a stand alone arcade. Huge screens but seats can get a bit dirty from my experience. Overall, this is a great cinema and it’s worth a shot trying out.

Awesome venue for sports and other entertainment. The public transport after the game was well organised and plenty of parking in the surrounding area.

Parks & Nature

Great place to have a picnic as a family or with a date. Taking the kids out for an easy free day in nature is great. Plenty of opportunity for them to use their imagination, stretch their legs and have a good night sleep that evening. Japanese Gardens and nature walks are really pleasant. The restaurant/cafe is a good size and has a good spread of basic choices.

Beautiful location with sweeping views of the city from across the Brisbane River. The park is cool in the shadow of the cliffs. Great place to people watch as it is quite busy and there are always activities going on (rock climbing included).

An iconic landmark on the South Bank skyline, The Wheel of Brisbane is a breathtaking way to take in a 360-degree panoramic view of spectacular Brisbane city.

Visitors can experience the sights by day, the lights by night or book an on-board dining experience to spoil your loved ones.
