Entertainment & Activities

Great beach in the middle of the city, good to have a relaxing Sunday, or a nice meal with a good view of the city. Can get a little crowded at holiday times.

Arts & Culture

Great art exhibits from all over the world. Check out what's on before you go, but usually there's something really interesting. Good way to chill out and get all cultured and stuff.

Beautiful way to get away from the city. You can hire bikes, and go for a ride around the gardens for the day. Lovely day out.

Just off Mt Cootha Road, I think this is a great visit for adults and kids alike. My partner and I had a fab time re-living our childhood fascination with the stars. Cute!

This is a cute wee hidden lane in Brisbane City. Tucked away from the noisy Queen Street, and George Street, you can duck in here to a wee restaurant or bar for a break. Looks dingy, but fab inside!

Sightseeing

Great view of the city, and nice way to relax. Get away from the heat on this leafy breezy hill. This is right beside our place, so you can pop over whenever you like.

If you can get up here... great lookout. Buses run from the city, and I'd recommend it. Lovely restaurant on the top, a little on the expensive side, but it has a stunning view of Brissy.

Down River Terrace, this is a lovely walk along the Kangroo Point Cliffs, that look out onto Brisbane City. Tradition is to grab fish and chips or an ice cream to eat here. Stunning day or night.

Religious or no, it's great to take the time to appreciate the pure beauty of this church. Stunning architecture, and a long time in the building. Worth a look if you're heading by.

Food Scene

Best food ever. Ok, I think so anyway. Nice and cheap greek eats, fantastic Yiros (a kind of kebab), and awesome lemon potatoes! Does life get any better?

Great Coffee, fantastic staff. You can buy freshly roasted beans, or just stop in for a cuppa. If you're lucky, you'll be able to flip for a coffee (win the coin toss, and your coffee's free!).

Great place to buy the freshest, tastiest bread... but also an awesome place to stop in for a healthy, tasty lunch. Most things are gluten free and/or vegan, and they all taste amazeballs.

Corner of Fish Lane and Merivale, this small wee coffee shop makes great coffee, and has lovely service. They've clearly been doing it a while, and know what's what.

Drinks & Nightlife

Great bar, relaxing atmosphere, fantastic beer. Nice and cosy, the first of the boutique bars in West End (they started quite the trend). Good for a cocktail or sneaky beer in a chilled environment.

If you're into vintage/antiques, this is the place to go. You'll spend hours skipping down the wee isles in search of treasure, and end up not even remembering why you went there in the first place.
