Drinks & Nightlife
Great place to party and the house DJs play great music to dance to. The acoustic little bar at the entrance before the main club is probably the best hidden gem around with a decent hard liquor list and cocktails. They also have a ladies night (on thursdays) where you can get free drinks, hair and make up done.

Fun, exciting bar for some after work drinks. Located in the city this is a great place to go to for some after work drinks before heading out. Huge area with a variety of seats both indoors and outdoors. They have heaters outside in the winter, and at least 3 bars. Nice view over the river as well to watch the sun set!

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.

X- Cargo is a new venue made of shipping containers in the Valley. I recommend an awesome spot in one of the top containers and had a great view over the levels and dance floor. Perfect atmosphere and design with the fairy lights and murals.

Parks & Nature
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).

Great place to have a picnic as a family or with a date. Taking the kids out for an easy free day in nature is great. Plenty of opportunity for them to use their imagination, stretch their legs and have a good night sleep that evening. Japanese Gardens and nature walks are really pleasant. The restaurant/cafe is a good size and has a good spread of basic choices.

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".

Even if the show is not that good, it is a beautiful converted woolshed with a great view. Stroll through New Farm park and have a hit of Croquet or go play some Barefoot Bowls at Merthyr Bowls Club. Walk or got on a City Cycle and do the Riverwalk to Teneriffe. If you have the energy, and you like looking at Architecture check out the mansions on Teneriffe Hill. Some awesome modern architecture mixed in with classical Queenslander architecture.

Excellent facility for all of the cultural events that are held. Would recommend coming early if you would like to buy food or drink as the bar can be quite busy during each event.

The Triffid is a great local spot to enjoy a good beer (many local and domestic craft beers available on tap or in bottle). Sit down and relax with friends in their cosy beer garden or watch one of the live concerts that regularly take place with many up and coming artists. If you're looking for a bite to eat you cannot miss their $25 meal deal where you get 2 burgers, chips and beers which is great for sharing.

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.
