Batavia Teahouse in South Bank was one of the first cafes I visited in Brisbane, and its unique atmosphere and menu made me an instant and ardent fan. It was a huge shame when it closed down.
YES!! I miss that place so much sometimes! Such a same it got replaced by a Grill’d.
Their hot chocolates were to die for! I can’t speak about their coffee as I don’t drink it.
I was only saying today that I miss Batavia. Best hot chocolates ever, and such a lovely spot to sit with a friend over a cuppa.
Codpiece, New Farm. Best fish restaurant without the over cloying way some “experts” carried on. Now a pointless real estate office which the area SO needs.
Eagle Boys Bracken Ridge.
I miss this store as their pizzas are better than Dominos but I heard this Eagle Boys store was shut down due to serious food health violations.
Giovanni’s at Alderley.
Closed down about 15 years ago, but anyone who ate there would remember it.
California Cafe in Fortitude Valley. I can’t even remember if it was that good, it’s been that long. But it haunts my dreams.
The Bohemian Cafe that was around in the late 80′s, very early 90′s. Was on Elizabeth St. Very Melbourne-esque. Alternative. Great music. Now it’s a tacky synthetic shoe shop. Go Brisbane, you’re all class!
Kropotkin’s Anarchist Cafe in West End. Ran for a while in the 1980s. Fabulous vegetarian food, great atmosphere, it couldn’t last. Loved it.
Parrots on Elizabeth st.
Pizza Hut with all~you~can~eat underneath JoJo’s was nice.
Adrenalin Bar! One minute it was there the next its not!
Really miss TAKE 5 at Southbank.it had the best pork schnitzel ever.the good news there is another TAKE 5 in Vic Point-it is a bit too far for me to travel there..
