We hosted our wedding reception here, in the Restaurant and Private dining Room. The staff were extremely helpful, and very flexible for any event requests. Lennons were accomodating and served a delicious 3-course meal for 90 guests. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting outstanding food and service for their next event!
Amazing food and service! We love it here! Excellent for lunch, dinner or even just a drink. The staff are always friendly and the menu is fabulous!
A very classy resturaunt with fantastic food at great prices. The staff are fantastic and we visit this resturaunt regularly when visiting Brisbane. It is conveniently within the building of the Next Hotel and is situated directly on the Queen Mall. A recommended place to eat when staying in Brisbane CBD
The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The place is great for quiet dinner with friends and family. Love their food too. Definitely will be back there.
Fantastic food and excellent service I highly recommend this restaurant and bar
Amazing service and friendly staffs. I come to this place almost every week to have my break. Love love it 😍
We discovered this bar while staying at the Next & were very impressed with the beautiful setting, the food & the service we received from the staff.
We will Definitely be back there on our next visit to Brisbane.
Amazing service, really enjoyed our visit. The food was 10/10.
Grilled prawns were delicious, so was the prawn linguine. Top class service and food.
Many thanks to the management and wonderful staff at Lennons restaurant for making us so welcome at our family reunion (4 of us ex staff members of Lennons Hotel). Great service and a beautiful meal made it a very special day.
A fine Dine experience location inside the Next Hotel. Been my home For, regular breakfast for around 10 days.
➡️Highly Recommended
☑️Pancakes
What Did I Love ?
➡️ Choose one of the four main dishes
➡️ Quality Pasty Cake
➡️ Variety of vegetarian spread
➡️ Quality cerials and Spread
This was amongst the classy buffet breakfast I have had in Brisbane so far. Biggest advantage choose one of the premium main dishes like scrambled eggs with bacon, pancakes, an vegetarian option and more. Keeps changing every fortnight.
Love the pancakes from its presentation to its taste, you are bound to fall in love.
Service is quick and staff does decently good in serving each table.
Spread is pretty large which is really good for people from across the world.
Great location. Very modern look and feel. Went with my partner the other night,love the concept. Everything was amazing.Great staff and. Highly recommended!!
Excellent customer service. Always attended to by someone after every course. The ambience was great. The entree was incredibly delicious and the main was spectacular:) I would totally recommend this restaurant and how it’s central in Queen Street Mall!:)
My mate & I relished being adults at this grown up bar. After a number of red hued vinos, our extremely nice bartender made us customised cocktails. My margarita was on point and bestie loved his New York Sour made with the same shiraz he’d been drinking earlier. Great attention to detail. Recommend for a sophisticated tipple! 😁
Best Kilpatrick oysters!! I also love their Tuna Poke Bowl which is part of their lunch special between 11-3pm. Really really delicious fresh food that actually makes you feel good when you walk out. You don't feel bloated or weighed down.
Best hotel breakfast buffet in Brisbane! Not the biggest selection but everything is made from top-notch ingredients and prepared with love. We'll be back, better than the Sofitel and Hilton brekkies, and we loved the hot plates and top value.
An enjoyable and an exception to the rule 'never eat in an hotel restaurant'. An upgrade and refit has seen this tired and much loved Hotel dragged into the 2010s. Timber good modern cuisine and attentive staff has made the transition workable. Good menu - wine overpriced.
The Queen St Mall at night can be a bit of a quiet pedestrian strip, with all of the shops shut until the next day's hustle and bustle. There is however, a relatively new restaurant there that is worth a visit, turning the Queen St Mall into a destination in itself, rather than just a glorified nighttime footpath to Irish Murphy's.Lennons Restaurant is attached to Next Hotel, but is quickly making a name for itself in its own right, as a place to bunker down for the night and enjoy some decadent food.

Had dinner last night at this well set-up restaurant & bar. It was a busy night and we were arranged in a table packed with other dinners. Well, it is hard to complain about in such busy night as well as in a bistro style restaurant. Having said that we were compensated with the professional and friendly service. Ordered the Black Mussels to share between two of us. Mains of Portuguese Spatchcock, Duck a l' orange. At the end, we ordered desserts of Pina Colada & Warm Sago Pudding. Black mussels were done just perfectly in the broth of tomato & chorizo. The broth was so tasteful that we licked the last drop off. Although the duck was slightly under, that suited my taste buds which was left with traces of raw fresh seafood from the Hokkaido trip last month. Spatchcock deserved from up due to the juicy meat which was well balanced with the sweetcorn salsa and cumin yoghurt. At the beginning, I thought the warm sago pudding was surprisingly good, however, there was even more surprise from the Pina Colada. It was the hero of the night, well balanced texture and taste from compressed pineapple, pineapple jube and the coconut sorbet delivered a nice full-stop to the dinner. I have to give my compliments to all the staff who worked in the restaurants last night. Thank you.
This is a super classy operation. Great beer list, good bar snacks and excellent staff. The wait for the burger was a bit on the long side, but Your Dear Luncher didn't really mind. Bloke behind the bar gave Your Dear Luncher an additional beer on the house as a result of said wait. This is a great way to ensure a good rating. Places get busy, we get it, acknowledge this and it goes a long way to allay concerns. The burger was terrific, although the bun was the only disappointment. It was a little bit too dense for The Dear Luncher's tastes.
Thoroughly enjoyable stay at Next Hotel all round really.
Went to Lennons Monday night with my boyfriend for our 1 year anniversary and it was amazing. Staff were so friendly and professional and the food was absolutely incredible. We both ordered a main, and it just kept tasting better after each mouthful. Then we ordered a desert to share between the two of us, they brought out 2 deserts. 1 was on the house and had 'Happy anniversary' written on the plate in chocolate sauce which was such a lovely touch, not to mention that was also delicious. We will definitely be back again for another mouth water meal.

We booked Lennons Restaurant & Bar for a work Christmas function. Behind the bar is a private function room which catered for 65 guests. When they informed us that 65 was the maximum allowable patrons in the area, we assumed it would be quite squishy when we arrived. However, we were pleasantly surprised by the space and available room to walk around. We booked a 3 hour drink package. The best thing about the drinks package at this location is you don't need to go to the bar and do the awkward "I'm with these guys" process. We had two waiters which constantly brought drinks and food around. The service was fantastic. Overall, in booking the venue, the staff were extremely helpful and confirmed our arrangements multiple times. The only small issue we had was the staff member looking after our booking went on holidays, so the transition to the next staff member was slightly bumpy (although definitely giving Lennons benefit of the doubt as it is a very new hotel). A few tips for booking a function at Next Hotel: 1) Check out this venue and the terrace bar at Next hotel. 2) Book well in advance as Christmas is an extremely busy time. 3) This venue has a maximum occupancy of 65 people.
came here for a celebration, we ordered two steaks...one is the aged rump another is the main course from the menu - an angus rib eye. i personally don't like the aged rump...is just too hard...for the rib eye, is a perfect size for lady....and i love the smoked smashed potato.
last but not least the desserts....we had the panna cotta and the chocolate tart...but i am seeing others ordering the parfait ....i am sure that's their signature dessert...gotta order that next time.
Hubs and I had breakfast here twice as we were staying at the Next hotel this restaurant is attached to. Breakfast was fairly amazing quality and we were impressed with its offerings. You can help yourself to bacon, eggs, chipolatas, mushrooms, beans, toast, pastries, cereals, fresh fruit salad, yoghurts, juices & even the coffee machine is Vittoria but quite drinkable for a machine... We were impressed with the quality as I said before, nice food and and a clean, modern atmosphere make for an enjoyable choice for breakfast.
We stayed at next for 2 weeks recently and wow.... this place right on Queen St Mall was in the most amazing position. My grandmother worked at Lennons in the 50's and its another iconic place to visit. We were at the pool bar every day - reminds you of a New York pool bar area - great cocktails and yummy food. Quick jaffles, croquettes and the chicken burger was perfect. Loved the spice mix on the chips and we could never ever fault the steak either. Breakfast was included in rate and honestly it couldn't have been better. I love how hotels don't do a buffet and you can choose Ala carte as your breakfast.
Come here for the chilled vibe and perfect service. 5/5

Who would have thought that fish tails would taste like this? Tender, fine white-fleshed fish rolled into ovals topped with spiced yoghurt and a dash of coriander and ginger to complement, but not overwhelm the delicate fish flavour. It was a dish almost too pretty to eat, but eat it I did along with a good selection of others from the kitchen of Executive Chef Todd Adams in Lennons Restaurant & Bar, Brisbane.

I came across this bad boy while searching for a new place to get some quality dins in the City, right there hidden on Queen Street just inside Next Hotel. The photos of the dishes looked pretty divine, and the poolside bar cried "hidden gem". I was pretty surprised to find some of my friends in the know had never heard of or been here, but, with decent reviews, I went along to check it out. To my dismay, the poolside bar was booked out for a private function, but the restaurant looked nice. And I might even say that the restaurant itself was a hidden gem. Apparently it's still quite new-ish, but they've got their service and meals on point. I had the roast breast and pressed leg of duck, which was delicious but painstakingly small for the appetite I had worked up. The parsnip purée and cavolo nero were perfect additions. The only two qualms was that Lennon's probably could have used more wines available by the glass, and the food possibly took a little long from ordering to tabling, but the duck was done absolutely perfectly after all. Special kudos to our waiter, very attentive.
And doesn't come much cheaper than Lennon's new "Lennon's Loves A Lunch" deal. Yes, Brisbanites you can enjoy an amazing for under $20 in the stunning , 4 star, Next Hotel!. You don't need to go to some sketchy, back alley, hole in the wall place when you are tight for cash... You dine like the big ballers in the immaculate, beautifully designed Lennon's Restaurant.Lennon's Loves A Lunch is just $15pp and available Mon - Fri from 11:30AM - 3PM - with a new dish every day!
MARVELOUS. My partner and I stayed in Next Hotel on a Friday night, and decided to eat at the Lennon's Restaurant & Bar.
We LOVED it! The meals were delicious and the service was absolutely amazing. The waiters were delightful. We sat by the open windows - so refreshing and relaxing. We'll definitely be back.

What an unexpected treat.. Hearing about the old Lennons and wondering about the change to an iconic 70's building, we wondered in last week. Having arrived outside the restaurant area we were greeted by a cheerful lady and was shown to a cosy corner to have a couple of drinks and enjoy the new place....it appeared quiet other than a large group having a break from a conference or something, the hostess then went off busying about. We ordered other drinks and the waiter sat us in the restaurant, explained the specials and I chose the Mooloolaba prawn dish, yum! My friend ordered the lamb and I couldn't resist digging in too. We really liked the feel of the place, relaxed yet efficient, the food was served promptly and we giggled when the manager recognised us from another place we used to go to...he even got us to taste test a new cocktail special, something snuzzle.K.....cant recall but very refreshing. We didn't notice the place getting busier until we left, which gives you an idea of the spacious layout. Be good to come at night next, so we can sample the evening fare.

Getting there. Decided to go to Lennons restaurant with my partner for dinner a couple of nights ago as its a new up and comer in Brisbane, I've heard good things.
Upon arrival there was no host at the desk so after waiting a couple of minutes we decided to walk further into the restaurant where a waiter greeted and seated us. We were given water straight away but the service was down hill from there. Being a waitress myself I felt they were understaffed despite having what appeared to be three staff on the floor. It wasn't particularly busy. Although I was clearly not in her section, a waitress came over to give us a few recommendations and offer us drinks (which she then went into the bar and had to pour due to them taking too long). I have been a waitress in many places and only in pubs would a wait staff ever set foot behind the bar to pour drinks, the bar tender was seemingly no where to be found.
I only ever talked to what I think was my waiter once, which was when he came over to take our order (didn't even ask how we were!) I ordered the wagyu rump (recommended) and all the food was amazing.
The food at Lennons is a stand out, the ginger mousse desert (also recommended) is one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten, my only regret is that I didn't sit on the other side of the resturant where there were even tables talking to one another. I'll go back but hope to see a real improvement in staff training.
Nice Pool Bar. Went here for drinks the other day and once prior.
A bit expensive for standard beers, wine, etc but a great atmosphere.
Very inviting layout and modern pool bar.
Been here on two occasions and first occasion young man behind the bar was super.
On the second time i found the other young man to be very arrogant.
I will definitely go back.
I'm not going to lie, I really enjoyed the lunch at Lennon's Restaurant and Bar. In a way, they are very cheeky with the design of their express lunch menu, because I want to visit every other weekday just so that I can try them all.
All in all, I was treated by the pavlova. Such a nice and fresh one, you deserve to have a try.
Entree - the Grilled Calamari was so good, Asian tasty sauce, the calamari was juicy and tender.
Main - Tasmanian Flat Iron was not bad, as normal.
Comfort - Caesar Salad, veggies were fresh, the lardon was so nice, but the chicken breast was tough and dry.
Desert - Pavlova, one of my favourite, it was not too sweet and the fresh fruits made the balance of flavour. I’ll definitely come again for it!
Very nice Pool Bar Restaurant, nice breeze and good view of Brisbane city. Our group went for a drink and we had a great time. The service was great and very accommodating. Would definitely come back in the summer.
Friendly staff. Pleasant atmosphere. Some nice whiskey selections.
Fantastic service, just as I expected from an international hotel chain. Modern and minimalist decor made for a relaxed atmosphere. The food was good. Nice place for a long and leisurely meal and drink.
The food we ordered in general were pretty good. However, the wood fire pizza was a bit disappointing because the crust was slightly doughy and the middle of the pizza was quite wet. The lamb rump to share was really good, and the pavlova was icing on the top. The waitresses were quite friendly and professional. Overall, I'd recommend people to give this place a try.
