    The sliders
    Michael W.

    Where do I start with this one? I love my American style food joints just as much as the next guy (probably a little more - it's my not so secret fetish). The waitresses were very friendly and approachable. The tables were extremely sticky and required a good clean. We started off with the cheesy fries with chilli. They were very average with hardly any chilli on them & probably a little too much cheese. I had the sliders where my son had one of the big burgers with a side of rustic chips. The rustic chips were nothing like the name suggests - they were crappy plain French fries. The sliders had no flavour whatsoever, limited meat and just tasted like buns. My sons burger was had the bottom bun drowned in blood. Very substandard food to say the least. I also overheard the barman talking to a patron with the conversation revolving around judging a woman who was another patron elsewhere in the restaurant. Wouldn't go back.

    Update - Well I have been back and back and back and back again and they have won me over! Do…read moreyourself a favour and get down to Hudson's Corner. I recommend perching yourself on the bar stools for the best experience. The burgers here each and every time have been perfect. Flavoursome, tender and drrrrrrrrrrrrrroooooool, omg I may have to stop writing this review or risk drowning in my own saliva. And the wings...oh my ....the WINGS! Since my first visit the customer service experience has definately improved with each visit. The food is so good, like any good relationship, those little flaws like space and acoutics don't bother me so much now, in fact they enhance the whole authentic diner experience. Original Review - I do love the food at Hudson's Corner. If I was just rating on the food alone it would definately get 5 stars. I will definately go back...for the food. Unfortunetly though it is not a place where you can go and enjoy a meal with a friend and have a personal conversation as the tables are cramped in and the acoustics promote a loud and buzzy atmosphere. It is only a small place but when it is at capacity it tends to sound like an old man's public bar. So if you are into good food but not a noisy environment - then do yourself a favour and grab some takeway! The food is amazing, from the slow cooked pork belly, to the specialty wings and the amazing fries and onion rings. Plenty of craft and imported beer option to wash your meal down with! The service is adequate, but not anything special, there is probably a bit of room for improvement. You know that thing, where you sense people just love thier jobs. I wasn't feeling it at Hudson's.

    Omg... So just what I needed after a day of craving a cheese burger…read more I enjoyed every bite of my pulled pork roll & corn bread. I also suggest getting the spiked peach tea, I ended up have a little bit of root beer in it at the end.. it was a Party in my mouth. My mate had the the chilli fries & they were so good she wants them for breakfast.

    Awesome straight up double cheese bacon burger. The smoke. The smoke. So good. Chewy. Way to go…read more On Mondays they also do $5 original buffalo wings. Franks hot sauce. No bs. Just buffalo all the way, all the way down under. Wish there were more pickles then the simple spear, but I'll forgive them that. Will be back for both. Almost went with the Jah chicken jerk burger/sandwich but glad I got the burger. Really wanted to go all in on a 3am burger but thought of my heart and said hellllll no. :-)

    Ze Pickle, you legends. When I'm looking for gluttonous…read morefood, which is a lot of the time, with stellar service and great booze, I am 100% content with Ze Pickle. The burger joint has a surprisingly great selection of taps, spirits and cocktails. Whether people are drawn for that and stay for the food, or the other way round, it doesn't matter, because the guys are nailing it all. My first visit was hangover relayed. I dragged myself outta bed and into the car to get myself some crazy ass fries and a ginger beer. I have learnt that if that won't fix me, nothing will. My date took advantage of the $6.50 wings special and we chatted to the bartender as we worked our way through our food. I need to talk to you about these fries. Perfect thickness of chip with Ze sauce and maple bacon. Maple bacon. Like, come on! I was informed that the wings were perfect. Not too spicy and not at all oily. Ze Pickle is definitely my new recovery/prep/fun times venue. And oh how I love it.

    I saw a photo of Greaser online of its creepy back area, a concrete and fluroescent light dungeon…read morecovered in menacing graffiti, and made plans with friends to go there immediately. Greaser's shtick is, well, a 50s American greaser bar. Think of the kind of place James Dean and the Fonz would have a beverage. It also serves greasy (hehe) American food like fried chicken, burgers, fries and hot dogs. Greaser's front bar area is not a creepy dungeon at all, and quite elegant and cosy under the dim lighting. Between all of us, my group of friends ordered everything off the menu. I ordered the fried chicken. The coating was KFC-like but with interesting spices in it - I think it may have been dukkah. Unlike KFC, I didn't feel sadness and regrets afterwards - it was really delicious. Our meals came with onion-y "red eye" gravy and smoked chipotle mayonnaise, which I quickly became addicted to and mopped up with chips. There's a few interesting beers on tap but I had the special that night - whisky with freshly-made apple juice, straight from the juicer. PLUS the bar played some fun rockabilly and 80s tunes that got us chair-dancing over our burgers. Greaser is pretty cool. I hope they hold events and gigs in the future because it's a rad little space.

    This place is absolutely fantastic. Hands down the best bar in Brisbane I've been to in years…read more Greaser is bang on trend in the way that only a place opened once a trend has settled down can be. Serves generally American food and drinks? Check. Craft beer? Check. Much edgier barstaff than you are? Check? Down an alley? Check. Johnny Cash on the stereo? Check and check. I wanted to go because I wanted to try it but with some recent rock bottom experiences with other bars in this vein I kept expectations set to low. There is nothing particularly original about Greasers. American food stopped being a revelation a while ago, and frankly is starting to grate a little. Bloody Marys and Picklebacks are having a real moment right now so people are slinging them at you anywhere you go. And craft beer? You can now actually get it with breakfast some places. The fact that these are everywhere does not in any way diminish their appeal. I like burgers, I love bloody marys, and I enjoy brine more than is entirely reasonable. And these offerings are made all the more appealing by Greaser. The space itself is lovely with ample couch seating and booths, elegantly low lighting that isn't seedy and the mid-century music that is curated rather than cloying. Special mention must be made of the staff. During our visit they were uniformly incredibly polite, attentive and very very pleasant to deal with. Knowledgeable about the drinks behind them and able to mix an excellent cocktail. These are the sort of staff we should see more of and who should be clutched like rare diamonds by bar owners. Special shout to the woman with the tattoos and undercut. She mixed what is easily the best bloody mary I've had in Brisbane. Served on bourbon with plenty of hot sauce, this was living and this was living well. Greaser also has a top flight tequila selection which is really great to see. It's wonderful that more places are experimenting with tequila and incorporating it into more than shots, which is a really barbaric way to treat a drink of such complexity. One of our group hailed from Mexico City so this was a blessed relief. My ex is Mexican and nothing says 'Australians are completely clueless about soft racism' than taking someone's national drink and letting bogans punch it until they fall over Here the reposada is served in appropriate glassware and all is good. The troubles with on-trend establishments are just like the troubles of any other establishment, poor staff, wrong price point, sub-par offerings etc. The problem is when a venue is also tricked up there can be a gloss over it that keeps people coming back for no particularly great reason other than to be seen to enjoy themselves. Greaser suffers for none of this. This is a bar that is serious about being a bar. All venues need an edge. But as more and more venues in Brisbane slide from creative to kitsch it is deeply refreshing to see a venue like Greaser that maintains an interesting point but does it with a laser like focus on great service, great décor, great drinks and great food. It's a real credit to the group behind this venture. I'll be back. A lot.
