"You don’t have to go to a gallery to find great art in Brisbane – the streets themselves are home to some incredible pieces, including one of the largest collections of Aboriginal public artwork in Australia. Take an Aboriginal Art Tour through the city, or go on a self-guided exploration and marvel at murals and sculptures dotted around the streets and alleyways. While South Bank is a great place to begin your quest for street art, you can also find some of our favourites down Burnett Lane – Brisbane’s oldest laneway – which is incidentally also home to some of the city’s best bars, in case you needed an excuse to stop for a drink."

The bar menu has you covered with its bagels and burger range, plus there are heaps of bar snacks to share (like buffalo wings, spiced popcorn cauliflower or chicken nuggets) from $11 each. Happy hour from 5pm is the time to go."
