Brisbane Eating Out

Like all major cities of the world, Brisbane has a wide assortment of eateries sure to satisfy any hungry student.

Here are some of the more popular locations to eat at:

Caxton Street is a popular nightlife destination as there are places for live music and dancing. Caxton is also popular for its many reasonably priced seafood restaurants. It is located near the Suncorp Stadium so it can get very busy when a sporting event is on.

Chinatown is not just limited to Yum Chas during the day and great value Chinese food. It also offers a variety of different Asian cuisines including Thai, Japanese, Vietnamese, Malaysian and Cambodian.

Dining in The City is divided into three main districts:

The first is Queen Street Mall which is also the main shopping district, is filled with shopping malls and mainly food courts but there are quite a few restaurants and cafes around.

The second is Riverside, Eagle Street Pier. This is the main dining district and there is a wider range of restaurants (some more refined) with the added bonus of riverside views.The third is Albert and Felix Street, which is a nice combination of the sophisticated restaurants and the more laidback bars and bistros.

Emporium, Fortitude Valley is an option, if you’re feeling a little more stylish and sophisticated; it offers more ethnically diverse restaurants ranging from Asian, Middle East and European.

Milton, Park Road is often described as being reminiscent of European cafes and offers more formal dining choices. It is also a lovely area filled a mixture of boutiques. Suncorp Stadium is nearby so, like Caxton Street, it can get very busy on game nights.

South Bank is one of the more popular dining destinations. There are more than 30 restaurants and cafes with the bonus of riverside and city views. The culturally diverse eateries include Italian, Greek, Lebanese, Turkish, Asian as well as Modern Australian.

West End is frequented mostly by the locals and the food savvy. It is a quick, tasty and cheap meal option. It also has a blossoming nightlife but in a more relaxed atmosphere. There are more cafes than restaurants and is a popular destination for breakfasts.
