This is probably the best Thai in Brisbane. The restaurant is finely decorated and waitresses are in very smart traditional Thai uniforms. The food is extremely fresh and tasty. You have to book in advance every night and you should ring up for take away instead of just going as they are always so busy it can take time!

This is a lovely cafe with views to the street, a few tables outside and also a lovely garden at the back. It is really chilled out and quiet and does delicious drinks and food. It is a little pricey for some things on the menu but it is worth it for the quaintness.

These burgers are the best. There is lots of choice with interesting fillings. In Southbank this is perfect as there is a shortage of reasonably cheap eats in that area. The opening hours, fastness and freshness are very convenient.

This is a great restaurant for a special occassion. I went for a Christmas lunch. The service was excellent, we all enjoyed our meals and stayed for many hours. Lovely and bright inside with fantastic views and has a comfortable bar area at the front.

I regularly get burgers from here. They do vegetarian, chicken, steak or hamburgers. They have different fillings like cranberry and brie or pesto and salad. Help yourself to water as you like. I really like the vibe and branding on everything. Fries are great too.

This is a convenient place to go if you are in the city as it always seems open and is quick with food output. It is more self service as you go up to order food and go up to order drinks. There is live music often but it is too noisy to really enjoy conversation and gets a bit hectic with all the people and tables are quite close together.

I went here for my birthday with 5 girlfriends. We got a great table right on the outside of the balcony with views of the river and lights. We all had tasty meals and then they gave us a free bottle of wine as we went upstairs because we stayed on with them which was nice!

This is a very classy restaurant on the river. The food is extremely good and you pay for it, it would be a special occassion dinner. I had delicious barramundi.

I have been here for lunches with lots of people and everyone has always enjoyed their meal. They do a cheap lunch menu for less than $20. The setting is great on Park Road and it is very upmarket inside. There are vegetarian options.

This cinema is great because you can eat and drink inside! You have to get used the the waitress ducking in and out and the fact you cant see you food because its dark but I still think its worth it. The cinema seats are super comfy with cushions too! It is quite pricey though.
