Brisbane offers a wide range
of restaurants for the student
with a bit of spare money and
for those who are on a tight
budget. The CBD and nearby
surrounds are where you will
find most of Brisbane’s restaurants,
including stunning riverside
locations like Eagle St Pier
and Brisbane Riverside Centre.
These restaurants are on the
expensive side but if you can
afford it, it is a true Brisbane
dining experience.
For something a little less
expensive but still very cosmopolitan,
the West End and
South Bank is full of modern
and relatively cheap eateries. In
fact, the area is fast becoming a
vibrant eating out district with a
huge range of affordable dining
options for the student budget.
Who says fast food has to be
crap food? The Insider recommends
checking out a couple of
amazing burger places: Grill’d at
167 Grey St and Beastie Burgers
at Shop S06D, Little Stanley
Street. The three main eating
out strips are Little Stanley
Street, Grey Street and the Parklands
at South Bank and they
are worth strolling through to
find your own favourite.
If you are new to Brisbane you
will probably discover that
there is a Chinatown in Fortitude
Valley very quickly. While
it is a popular destination, the
real Chinatown is in Sunnybank
which is about half an hour by
bus from the CBD and hosts a
large Asian population. Delicious
buzzing restaurants such
as the Sunnybank Oriental in
the Sunnybank Complex are a
fantastic addition to a day of
exploring this multicultural hub.
Another fantastic dining area
is Paddington, and in particular
Caxton St, which buzzes in
summer as the outdoor tables
fill up and people turn a meal
into a bit of a night out.
