Checked this place out with a few friends and although I walked past it once managed to find it and headed down the astroturf driveway. What I found inside was a great pumping bar with good beer. I was late so missed the dinner my friends had but they raved about it especially the maple bacon popcorn.

This review is for Exchange Hotel, Brisbane QLD

For some reason the Vic always seem to do a much better trade than the Exchange. I never know why as the Vic is grubby compared to the Exchange which also has a great open air bar. Much better option to go for a night out in the city.

This review is for flour and chocolate, Morningside QLD

I read in Urbanlist that these guys do amazing brownies. I visited close to closing time when there wasn't many brownies left so decided to try a Turkish delight chocolate bar which was great. The bar was moist and dense with a great taste of rosewater coming through. I must go back and try the cheesecake brownies.

Approximate cost: $6

I attended an event here during Brewski and was very impressed with the bar. I had been thinking of going here for a quite a while and was impressed to find a smallish bar which opens up into quite a roomy area at the back. I didn't try any of their food but the menu and food coming out looked good. One of the managers told me they do a big Thursday and Friday lunch which I will have to check out.

This review is for Eatons Hill Tavern, Eatons Hill QLD

This is a massive pub and it is a bit hard to find where everything is the first time you go to it. We went with some friends and 5 kids so the kids room was great to allow the kids to run amok however they could have a few more things in there. The food was decent however was quite overpriced as far as pub standards go but luckily we had a 25% off voucher. Would definitely go back but not regularly.

Approximate cost: $32

This review is for Grand Central Hotel, Brisbane QLD

You've got to love a pub connected to a train station. Gives you an excuse to have a beer whilst you are waiting for the training and possibly miss the next one or two. There's nothing amazing about this old pub but it's in a great location, has plenty of history and does cold beers and a decent cheap feed.

I have wanted to go here for ages and eat can I day the burgers are amazing!! Fresh and tasty and by gourmet burger standards cheap also. I love the ability to design your own burger and the fact all come with a side of chips. Definitely in the top 3 burger spots in Brisbane

This review is for Blue Room Cinebar, Milton QLD

Although not quite as upmarket as Gold Class these guys make up for it in service and cost. It's a great little cinema with good service and very reasonable pricing for what they offer being only slightly more expensive that a standard cinema while offering much better quality.

Approximate cost: $17.50

This review is for Alpha Airport Parking, Hendra QLD

verified email - 14 Mar 2015

I used to use Alpha very regularly when I was doing FIFO work or traveling however after having three trips in a row where the bus took over 30 minutes to come and pick me up despite them knowing the time I was landing and ringing them to let them know I landed I refuse to use them again. One time I was waiting for almost an hour watching numerous other airport parking buses come and pick up their passengers and there was not even a hint of an apology or offer for a discount when I raised my complaint with them,.

This review is for Tamborine Mountain Distillery, Tamborine Mountain QLD

This place is a deadset winner and a must go if you visit Mt Tamborine. They have an amazing range of delicious liquors and the guys there and so fun and accommodating. I can't go past the Turkish Delight every time I visit but they have something to suit everyone.
