2 Best Restaurants in Brisbane, Queensland

This family-run café on Brisbane's south side is always busy, serving dishes that combine traditional Vietnamese flavors and techniques with local ingredients, great coffee, desserts, and fresh juices. Baguettes are baked in-house daily, and specialties like pork sausages and spring rolls are handmade in-store. The pho (Vietnamese noodle soup) always hits the spot, and is available from 7 am! Takeout is available from a dedicated space next door.

Housed inside the historic, Heritage-listed St. Luke's Cathedral, this elegant 24-hour pancake parlor is a Brisbane institution. Guests can take a seat in one of the Manor's converted church pew booths and chow down on a tempting menu of snacks, breakfasts, salads, steaks, and sweets beneath the building's grand redbrick arches. The bar downstairs has an all-day drinks menu of local and imported beers and wines; with its swift, attentive service, this is the place to venture when jet lag kicks in.
