Inner-city dining
If you’re heading into the city there are a profusion of great restaurants available to you. The bonus to dining in the inner city is that you are so close to many great nightspots and after having enjoyed a great meal you can dance the night away or maybe go to a show or movie. Additionally, there are some really top hotels and motels offering very reasonable accommodation if travelling home is undesirable.
- To find the best inner-city dining option visit the MustDoBrisbane.com Inner City website.
Dining with a view
Brisbane has some of the most beautiful scenery particularly along the peacefully meandering Brisbane river so why not enjoy that scenery while experiencing a unique dining experience.
- The Visit Brisbane - dining with a view guide in Brisbane lists some excellent restaurants with a view.

Family restaurants

- A well-deserved recommendation for family dining is Big Roddy’s Rippin Rib Shack in South Brisbane. South Brisbane is so convenient to the city, just a short walk across the bridge, and is the location of Southbank where the Queensland Museum, QPAC (Queensland Performing Arts Centre) and many fine restaurants can be found. Southbank is an adventure of discovery on its own as it was the site of the world expo in 1988 and has been superbly redeveloped.
- For a good list of family-friendly restaurants, MustDoBrisbane.com has a list to ensure you have a sumptuous evening along with a family-friendly atmosphere. The Editors' pick is The Victoria Park Bistro

Pub Meals
Brisbane has many great pubs that serve some really good food at quite reasonable prices so top pub meals can be found at The Urban List of 50 of Brisbane's best pub meals or just go down to your local. A good example of a great local Brisbane pub is Sixes and Sevens, which is a uniquely Queensland styled Public House.
The best brunch spots in Brisbane
It’s great to get out early on the weekend and enjoy brunch at some of Brisbane’s suburban locations.
- Here are some suggestions to pursue from the Queensland.com website that outlines some of Brisbane's best brunch spots.
Bayside Dining
Moreton Bay and the suburbs fronting it provide the perfect locations to enjoy a mid-morning breakfast while watching the joggers and others passing by or if you’re really lucky a passing pod of whales in season.

Gold Coast dining
It would be remiss of us to not mention the great dining experiences awaiting you on the Goldy. It’s only an hour drive from Brisbane to this beautiful part of Queensland and combined with some of the most stunning beaches in Australia, dining on the Gold Coast is an experience not to be missed. The beginning of the journey can be found at the, you can't miss list of restaurants on Queensland.com.
Where do the top chef’s like to eat
When it comes to recommendations you can’t go past where some of Brisbane’s top chefs like to eat out themselves. Julius Pizzeria in South Brisbane for instance rates well with a number of chefs as does Same Same and Montrachet. You’d be hard-pressed to get a better recommendation than that of other chefs for the best fare in town. If you want to look into this further, find more locations where chefs eat on Queensland.com.
