Poppies
$$$$•Modern Australian•4.1(33)Welcome to Poppies — Southbank's favourite table.
Poppies was born from a simple idea: a place named after our daughter, where every guest feels like family. Damien and Zoey opened the doors on Little Stanley Street with one goal: to create the kind of neighbourhood restaurant they always wished existed. Somewhere warm, unhurried, and genuinely good.
Today, Poppies is Southbank's go-to for all-day brunch, long lunches, and easy evenings. From Allpress specialty coffee at sunrise to signature cocktails long after dark — the food is honest, the welcome is genuine, and the table is always yours.
Whether you're joining us for our famous Bánh Mì Burger, Snow Crab Linguine, or a pre-show dinner before QPAC or BCEC (both a short walk away), there's no rush and no rules. Just great food and good companySage Yellowfin - Brisbane

- EElizabethBrisbane •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoI was part of a large group that booked at The Rose and Crown for Melbourne Cup Day and it was a fabulous afternoon. The wait staff were so attentive, the meals were delicious and they had large screens showing the various horse races and Fashions on the Field, a must for the ladies at our table. The wines and champagnes selected to cater for such a large function perfectly matched the meals, flowers on every table were a lovely touch, and the pre-storm breeze helped cool down a muggy afternoon; overall a wonderful venue. Thoroughly recommend The Rose and Crown for work events and large groups of friends.More infoThe Rose and Crown - South Brisbane$$$$• Gastro Pub• South Bank•4.1
