Order from a tablet to your traditional Japanese Booth or Go super tradition and sit on the floor. The service here is so quick. Locals play a game here where you time how quick your beer comes after you order through the tablet system.

The bartenders were very friendly and helpful, they even made us some custom cocktails. They have a wide variety of cocktail options, along with a variety of spirits and on tap options. The view of the river and story bridge from the seating outside is spectacular.

Love this place, the happy hour for burgers and pizza is so affordable and delicious! Service is always good and the atmosphere is comfortable. The Fox is also widely known for their Sunday Sesshes which take off from 7pm. The place usually gets so popular a queue wraps around the lower level door and groups have to put their name on lists and wait to get let in. Arrive earlier to avoid the queue.

Beautiful location with sweeping views of the city from across the Brisbane River. The park is cool in the shadow of the cliffs. Great place to people watch as it is quite busy and there are always activities going on (rock climbing included).

One of the best parks in all Brisbane. Huge area of lush Parkland trees benches and Riverside , as well as some small cafes. Very family friendly with a lot of shade for kids to play Under. Very spacious to play some Team games. You can also bring your small picnic and have a nice alfresco breakfast in the park. Definitely make sure to visit the Powerhouse which is now arts and theatrical performances space. Deal so have nice bar and restaurant where you can dine in after seeing some art and cabaret shows.

Arts & Culture
One of the great places to visit if you're in Brisbane either as a tourist visiting or a local yourself. The exhibit changes throughout seasons and they are all interesting. The main exhibit usually will always have an entry price but it's well worth it. You just have to check the website for all the previous ones they have done. Good place to go on quiet dates and get "cultured".

Entertainment & Activities
Possibly one of the best cinemas in Brisbane, tickets are way cheaper than normal and food is also decently priced. Sushi bar conveniently located to the left of it, so no shortage of food options. Arcade area is the largest I have ever seen in any cinema I’ve been to, nearly as big as a stand alone arcade. Huge screens but seats can get a bit dirty from my experience. Overall, this is a great cinema and it’s worth a shot trying out.
