Great vibes here, very unique too! Perfect spot on the river! I would only recommend staff to clear big tables as the night goes on instead of only when people leave and personally would put a fence around the ship because kids be wild out here but otherwise it's one of our favourite spots! Would spend more time here if I could!

Our stay in Brisbane was made even more memorable by catching the ferry to Howard Smith Wharves for dinner, a family friendly location that satisfies all taste options!

Howard Smith Wharves is one of Brisbane’s standout destinations, offering a vibrant mix of dining, bars, and stunning riverfront views. Nestled right under the Story Bridge, the setting alone makes it worth a visit—especially in the evening when the lights come on and the atmosphere really comes alive. There’s a great variety of food and drink options to choose from, whether you’re after a casual bite or something a bit more upscale. The open-air layout and greenery give it a relaxed, almost resort-like feel, making it perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a laid-back afternoon. It can get quite busy, especially on weekends, and parking can be a bit tricky, but the overall experience easily makes up for it. A must-visit spot when in Brisbane. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Felons have spent big creating a great entertainment, dining and bar precinct on the Brisbane River under the Story Bridge. Really well designed for big groups or small. However I can only give it 3 stars because the beers on tap are from the Felons Brewery on site- and they are crap, I tried three different ones, all as bad as each other. As for cost of the food and drink - PRICEY!!!

A big big shout out to security staff who went above and beyond to help my partner who has mobility issues and uses a walker, to get to our function venue. Especially the beautiful big dude in the cowboy hat who met us at our cab and organised the golf kart to take us to the venue and collect us when we were ready to leave. Just amazing help and care! A great night! A million thanks!
