Norman Hotel is great. Famous for it's steaks and rightly so! On the weekends this place gets rather busy, so finding parking in the designated parking area at the back can get frustrating. However, there are streets that run along side the Norman Hotel, so patrons can park there also. The line up for the restaurant is usually out the door on weekends as plenty of Brisbanites have come to learn of it's delicious steaks. As you wait in line you are usually assigned a table number, then order at the counter and pay. The beautiful slabs of steak are laid out for you to see. You don't get to pick the actual steak you want, but it is helpful to know the cuts so you can visualise what type you feel like eating. Each steak comes with a side of garden salad, baked potato with bacon bits, sauce and a bread roll. Recently I ordered the Filet Mignon. It was very tasty. A little on the salty side, but still very very good. I ordered Medium, which is how it arrived. For about $35, it was a little steep considering it is no longer table service and we had to collect it ourselves. But, it's still good to indulge at a place like this from time to time. The dining area is great. It has an industrial feel with open roof, rustic thick wooden tables and exposed brick work. It really suits this upmarket pub. This is an excellent venue to hang out at for dinner. Great atmosphere and fantastic food.

This place is perfect for what you should expect: A bar/grill in the middle of the city…read more Firstly and probably its main attraction - it's got crazy good location! But the layout of the place is even better! It is a basement bar, half of it outside and the other half kind-of-inside. Very spacious, clean and with good selection of beer (albeit mostly mainstream beers, but a lot of them). Very comfortable, with some big TVs and also music. Good people watching too. The food is good, not amazing, but you can't expect amazing in such a central, tourist-y area. I had the wings and they're a solid 8/10, at least. Service was great too. Shout out to Elise behind the bar.

I have to say that I really like basement bars, and the Criterion is not exception. I have been…read morehere a few times, at least when I was previously in Brisbane, namely because I thought that their beer garden was really cool. However, like most of the pubs in the CBD, this one does close quite early (though late enough that I was able to slip in here for a drink one night). There is nothing fancy or flash about this pub - expect the standard beers on tap - no craft beers. It also has a pokies area and a bistro, though there is a pool table tucked away in one corner. The beer garden is pretty cool as well, but unfortunately for the smokers it is not the designated smoking area. During the day it does get fairly crowded (though I have never noticed anybody out in the beer garden, despite it being a pretty nice day), but it was fairly quiet when I was there.

I joined a group of 7 for dinner at Broncos Leagues Club today it was fantastic! The cheeseburgers…read morewere a huge hit with my group. Although they also have amazing steaks! Highly recommend for a great dinner with TVs for watching sports.

I had my first legal drink at the Broncos Leagues Club. My friends and I decided to have a laugh…read moreand go hunt down some buff footy tail at Alfie's Bar. (The hunt didn't go down so well). I returned 9 years later to have lunch with my parents. Although I'm not a footy fan, I quite enjoyed myself. When you walk in, you can turn right into the pokies room and lose yourself in a wash of rainbow, neon machines begging to take your dollars, one by one. Beyond the pokies is the Halfway Cafe, where you'll find a fine pub lunch. My mother and I are suckers for buffet, so we went downstairs and got the smorgasboard ($20 each excluding drinks). The buffet stations are huge. It's the standard soup- salad- vegetables- carved meat- pasta options with some surprising added extras. The cheese kransky is delicious, the spring rolls are more-ish if nothing else, and the grilled octopus salad is succulent and juicy. There is also quite a large assortment of asian cuisine including honey king prawns and sweet and sour pork. The only inconvenience is having to go to the bar and pay for your drinks separately.You've got a wealth of tables to choose from- booths, or window seats, so you can watch the Broncos train while you dine. While you're there, go have a gander at all the old jerseys and trophies. My favourite area is the wall just outside of Alfie's Bar that has old photos of big beefy footballers who were snapped while getting tackled, and getting their junk yoinked up to their armpits. There's some corkers in there, let me tell you. Even if you're not into footy, Broncos Leagues Club isn't a bad place to have a beer or to have a sit down meal. You'll be pleasantly surprised.
