Yesterday evening I attended a birthday dinner at Factory 51 at Coorparoo. This visit really…read morehighlighted how far Brisbane's foodie scene has come in the last couple of years; you can now find gems such as Factory 51 in areas previously limited to a handful of fast food stores and a fish'n'chip shop on the corner. Instead of the cod and chips bundle, however, I was treated to a snapper fillet, creamy mash potato, charred kale and burnt sage butter. As an avid fisherman, I can safely say that the snapper was so fresh that it was probably helping find Nemo earlier that morning. When you have a piece of fish of that quality, all you need is a simple supporting cast and some TLC, and Factory 51 definitely ticked those boxes! Whilst I didn't indulge in dessert, the vegemite and creme anglaise ice cream was a hit with the birthday girl. We will definitely be back!

I'd been waiting for my next inter-state trip to Queensland to finally come visit this brewery and…read moreI was not disappointed! The brewery is located in an industrial park about 25-30mins drive outside of Brisbane CBD (approx. $50 cab ride or $40 UberX oneway). We were pleasantly surprised to find the brewery buzzing when we arrived, a game of Cornhole underway in the front outdoor area, tables filled with beer paddles & a food truck (Puerto Taco) churning out delicious tacos to make sure we had a stomach lining while we tasted all their delicious beer. The inside bar/brewery/seating area is cozy, tables adorned with lamps made from old ten pin bowling pins, a games area upstairs as well as other board games to master at your tables while you drink. The bar itself has plenty of taps meaning they can have plenty of rotating beers on show and also keep a decent bottle list for dine-in or takeaway too. And of course this leads me to their beer, I was already a fan before I arrived but Bacchus put out some really creative & interesting craft beers, meaning you'll more than likely find something to drink whether you're a beer snob, beer n00b or non-beer drinker (everyone has to try the Lamington Dark Ale, the nose alone will sweep you away to Lamington-land :p).

A good place to meet up with fellow beer lovers for an evening of intelligent drinking. Less good for a romantic date or a quiet tete-a-tete. Ten rotating taps, a little too heavily waited toward the IPAs, but focusing small local brewers. I've only eaten starters here, but they were excellent and adventuresome: scallop ceviche mini-tacos, broccolini with lemon butter, and best of all, a beer-complementing platter of liverwurst and pickles with fresh crusty bread. I'll be back.

Excellent service, food, and of course the craft beer & cider on tap. We ordered the duckling spring rolls , and the seafood pizza marinara . We also ordered the fries with chilli aolie . Sorry no pic with the fries, I ate half of them before realising I forgot to take a photo. Lol . But trust they are yum.

I recently learned that Howard Wright-- a major investor and director of this establishment--was…read morefined for driving "in a dangerous manner" in an incident that involved a 12-year-old boy on an e-bike. A joke of a punishment for the crime. On video you can see this sick man speed up in a Audi, intentionally, to hit a child on a bike on the side of the road out of traffic. He proceeds to scream at the child, while the child pleaded for his life. I hope karma does her magic. Even more concerning is how Mr. Wright seemed to justify his actions by blaming the child's bike as "illegal," rather than genuinely acknowledging the danger and illegality his own driving posed. I expect higher ethical standards and community responsibility from anyone at the helm of a hospitality business. While the restaurant itself may serve somewhat average food or drinks, I personally cannot support an establishment whose leadership shows such disregard for safety and empathy--especially when a young child's wellbeing is at stake. Until clear accountability and genuine remorse are demonstrated, I'll be dining elsewhere. If you care about patronizing businesses that reflect your values, I would encourage you to consider taking your money and support elsewhere, too. The experience at these venues sucked before these events occurred too, every other option nearby provide a way better experience. Terrible for family photos. Terrible lighting

There are heavy curtains hanging and behind one lot of curtains was the pool table. Tables and chairs a plenty so your sure to get a seat. They have a small nibble menu and the Italian meatballs were full of flavour and came out in this cute cast iron frypan with bread on the side. I ordered a Peroni beer and fell over backwards as it arrived in a 500ml glass. They also had a special going that is you order a pizza and two 300 ml Peroni beers you pay $25. This cafe wine beer bar had friendly staff and is an Italian bar. Definitely worth a visit if you want to meet up with friends over a quiet drink.

It's easy enough to find and very easy to identify with clothing out the front. There are also some old bicycles out the front with so much vintage quality that the first image that came to my mind was Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck haphazardly riding one of them. This place is littered with all things Vintage: on the walls, on racks, hanging, draping, sitting, resting, everywhere. There's even a lovely little record player you can marvel at. It's obviously a house that's been transformed into a shop and every room you move through is a new adventure with new things to play with. There's a sweet little selection of clothing and I didn't see one item of it exceed $40. And the tag not only features the price of the piece, it also identifies what era it belongs to. Lovely. Boys, be happy too; in other shops you're usually assigned one rail if you're lucky. Here, you get a whole room complete with cowboy boots to try on. Grab a coffee while you sing along to "Under the Boardwalk" and then take some time to pop downstairs and browse the furniture. The back stairs give way to a den-like basement that holds this part of the store with things including an old keyboard, television, suitcase, and a bundle of chairs that look like they were lifted straight from your grandma's living room. This place is the collective creation of two lovely ladies who obviously live and breathe all things vintage, and I'm definitely a fan of their work. It's a novelty little place with so much charm and potential. Massive snaps to whoever did their design and logo as well, because that was a really enticing factor for me.

I…read morejust wanted to add my 2cents though and say that I'm very VERY pleased that the girls here stock clothes that are size 12 and 14. There is a very cool vintage clothes store in West End that also posts pics of their wares on Instagram and Facebook but I've notice it only seems to have size 8 and 10. Huh? Marilyn Monroe would be disgusted! So, thank you CYKAS - keep stocking 12s and 14s. Us 'real' curvy women will love you forever. And keep posting your clothes on IG and FB. You have the best stuff. For the record, I ended up buying a beautiful wool cape which I wore to a wedding recently. Now a firm favourite in my wardrobe.

The day I walked into Uptown, my life got a little bit better…read more Uptown is everything I could ever want in a bar. It's small, it's relatively hidden, it's only open two days a week (unless you book it for a function) and it's unique. With a wood-panelled bar, staff that know their cocktails, kitschy paraphernalia and a dude playing honkey-tonk piano I fail to see what more you could want in a bar. To be sure, you don't come here to dance. You don't come here to pick up or meet people. What you come here for is a gathering with friends. Pre-dinner drinks. A cozy corner on a Friday night. If I had the money I think I'd actually buy this bar and make it my own personal venue. It really is THAT good.

It's a work in progress as it's not finished, but regardless of the simple decor its got a funky vibe. The outside deck has a food truck docking bay where the Red Robin supper truck was parked. It's a great concept for a bar, put a loading bay where any food truck can drive into and then serve food. I'm assuming different trucks will be there at times but at this stage it's just the Red Robin. There are hay bales and milk crates to cater for those who can't get a seat at one of the tables. There is a great selection of beers on top including Sierra Nevada and a Watermelon from goatbeer. It's already getting a cult following from the Morningside locals. Definitely worth a visit!
