NUMEROUS times I’ve been to Newstead Brewing Co. In MILTON, Brisbane. It was one of my LOCALS and one of my FAVOURITES. (I did visit the original Newstead Brewing Co. in NEWSTEAD when it was there, before it became Working Title) But this about the one right next to Suncorp Stadium. SO let’s start with:…

K, this is annoying: going to write my REVIEW for Kenjin and not finding good PHOTOS! (Keep reading for Kenjin’s EXCLUSIVE deal for Chick Walks Into a Bar followers!) First, let’s start with a photo of the front: MAYBE you can’t tell from the street – if it’s a CLUB or a RESTAURANT, but that’s…

JAUNTING through the tavern door, I STRODE into the Jolly Roger, a bustling bar in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane. I was met with the unmistakable scent of ADVENTURE and the hearty laughter of fellow SEA DOGS! COUNT the skull and crossbones. INSIDE: graffiti on the walls! STICKERS, lanterns hanging from the roof, and behind the bar…

How many BARS you been to lately for BREAKFAST? I’m always trying to mix it up a bit, SO when I saw WAFFLES on the MENU: it got me back to Hope & Anchor (for the second time). My first visit was a dinner & drinks (I regrettably didn’t get any photos) But on this…

VIBING & VIBRANT – it’s no surprise Viscosity bar E X P A N D E D in 2023. NOW their Fortitude Valley venue has TWO entrances – on the corner of McLachlan and Connor Streets.

Even tho I was doing “Dry July” (at the time) it did not stop me going to the bars – Greg was keen to get away from the office, so we did a lunch visit to Easy Times at Woolloongabba. I walked in and (NOT to be too distracted by the pretty beer taps) Told…

Called to me! from across the street: THAT place, that used to be a Fritzenberger – now had bold new signage: Caxton Street Brewing Company. Though Brisbanites (as old as me) will also remember it as the Casablanca club – yep, WAY back. So I went to see what the new NEW owners had done…

BRIGHT and BLUE and a BARON and BREWS! At The Brew Baron brewery in West End. Last time I was here it was Parched bar, so I went to see how the new owners were re-branding the venue. I just happened to walk up the stairs, the DAY electricians were installing NEW signage. and INSIDE:…
