Review Beach House Bar & Grill Cbd - Brisbane

Give bar tender Ewaz a raise pls. He is a absolute asset to your team. Smiles all around. Genuine and lovely fellow.

I expected more seafood at this restaurant. However the parma did not disappoint. Highly recommend going if you're wanting a parma. The drinks were well made too.

Theo is an outstanding staff member. From the moment we walked in he was friendly, honest and accommodating. He was the lower barman and did a wonderful job on various cocktails. When the food order was not properly fulfilled ( not his fault) he fixed it immediately. He was courteous, polite and very personable to all customers, regulars and newbies like ourselves. He is a credit to your business. Please ensure you pass on our sincere thanks for a level of service rarely seen these days. And to you the management we hope you value him.

Chicken schnitzel night #delicious Very fresh tasty chicken schnitzel with fries and salad. Totally worth the $15

Is it cooked well done? came this out of kitchen after sending back… Everyone finished their meal on table took so long still wasn’t cooked well done. You expect bit better food when 3 people on table spending nearly $200. Disappointing

Very disappointed in the food, both the amount of time it took to receive the food, having three meals placed at once, two of the same item yet one meal was nearly consumed before the other matching one came out. The serving sizes were also very small, honestly the smallest serving of chips and salad I've ever received, and the cheese covered chips were an abysmal dry overcooked mess, again with poor serving portion. Can't say I'm very impressed with anything except for the booze prices, as the food isn't particularly cheap.

I had very high expectation given the suggestions from my friends. I order 3 streak paying almost Au$ 146.78 and waited for half an hour. When the streak was served: it was just served two. Waited for 10minutes and upon asking for team members they said they made mistake. The steak was not cooked as recommended and it was not savoury. ** On to top it all found the hair on the plate on steak.

We had steak, loaded wedge, pizza Food quality was average good though service was not really good. Some staff look so tired. Food price are fair. Nice pub. So many drinks selection. This place is good with friends to get drink. Weekend could be busy

Service was atrocious. Food wasn't much better. Coffee came out barely warm, bacon wasn't cooked, toast was more like stale bread, grilled tomato was cold, hash brown was soggy. Staff couldn't understand how to make an espresso/shot of coffee with a simple dash of milk in it. Explained twice each to 3 separate staff and they still brought out the wrong thing. Would not recommend and would never return! Very disappointed.

Had been there yesterday in the evening after a tiring day, and just simply ordered this "BACON CHEESE GARLIC BREAD", and it was simply so delicious and I really enjoyed it, the ambience is good, service is also quite good and staff is very kind and generous especially the lady who served me "Ms. Anjalee"!

Delicious and cheaper option lunch deals .... yum yum <br/><br/>Nice view of the restaurant too . First time trying the menu of the lunch deals and it was really good . <br/><br/>I love everything except the salad . Didn’t really like the salad ><

Seems overpriced for what you get. Now don’t me wrong , I understand about rent and prime spots and this certainly has one. I had the cheeseburger special and it was devoid of any sauce.. just onion, cheese and patty. Pretty plain stuff.

This is a franchise restaurant and we already had experience with the Garden City restaurant.  The City place is always busy at night and we have to shout across the table to make conversation.  Visit again during their happy hour (4pm to 6pm) on Monday and wow, not many people at all.  The $5 beer was great and we tried the buy 1 get 1 free steak meal deal.  We order the largest rump and it comes with chips and salads. The portion was huge and very filling.  Steak was cooked to our order and the services was great.  Look forward to go back and try their Thursday chicken wing deals.

We had breakfast here after our morning walk. It’s a nice place in the heart of the city. A bit noisy though. <br/>Coffee and food were nice. We had the big veggie breakfast which came in a generous portion with eggs, avocado, hash brown, tomatoes, mushrooms, spinach and slices of toast for $16.

Food is awful, $19 for a bit of dry spaghetti? Honestly the worst meal I've had in a long time. Only redeeming factor was the bar, really affordable for the area and the friendly staff otherwise would have given 1 star. Honestly, do not eat here, save your money and get GYG down the street.

Ordered the $29 pumpkin, pine nuts and sour cream pasta tonight. In theory sounds amazing... came out beyond dry! Spaghetti pasta was cut into tiny pieces like you would for a child. Pumpkin tasted like it had been microwaved. I felt like I had been served something from a supermarket pre-packet... that’s how bad it was. And the worst part was it was extortionally priced at $29 for low quality.

Food is terrible, fish was tough dry and yellowed, coleslaw watery and I'm not sure what they gave me but they certainly wasn't tartare. Didn't expect a lot due to low prices but I actually couldn't finish my meal it was that foul. Service was also terrible, disinterested and just talking to each other whilst serving you. Avoid at all costs!!!

I loved this place! I've tried a chicken sandwich and my boyfriend a fish and chips, the both was so tasty, the chicken tasted fresh and the chips was so amazinggg!!! The ambiance was really  pleasant with live music! There is a good place to get a great food and enjoy with your friends in a happy hour or a special dinner.

Tonight I met a friend in CBD and he said he wanted to have a burger but since Miel Container don't open on Sundays we decided to give a try to the burgers at the beach house.<br/><br/>I had the vegetarian sandwich and today's special Garlic Pizza Bread, and my friend ordered the Wagyu Burger. <br/><br/>I did not try the Wagyu Burger but my friend was quite disappointed with it, he said it tasted average and was lacking some sauce in it. Which for more than 15 dollars was not worth it at all.<br/><br/>The vegetarian sandwich was nice and moist, the bread was soft and the vegetables tasted fresh with a nice flavour coming from the pesto that was in the sandwich, I think it was a bit too expensive for what was served but I do not have any major complains about it so I would rate it a 4 out of 5.<br/><br/>The garlic pizza bread, the dough was really soft and nice but could have been a bit crispier, also I think there wasn't enough garlic flavour to it, it was more like a cheese garlic pizza than a garlic bread flavour. For 7.90 it was quite cheap and I enjoyed it so I would also rate it a 4 out of 5.<br/><br/>Overall the menu at Beach House doesn't sound interesting but apparently they take care with the food they serve and I wouldn't have any problem coming back with friends in this place.

Perhaps a reflection of the Brisbanite's unfulfilled desire to go to a beach that the city lacks, the Beach House does a great "public service" of sorts in providing the beach vibe, with its decked floorboards, wide covered outdoor space and decor. Adding to the positive vibe is live music. <br/><br/>I had the three brioche burger sliders. The Beach House offers three different sliders, which you can "mix and match". I decided to mix things up and got one of each. At $18 for the three, it's definitely a little bit "fancy". The pulled pork was a bit unexciting, though the other two - the beef and the lamb - were each a pretty good combination. Opposite to the kitchen is the bar with a good selection of taps. Very friendly customer service.

Food was below average. We ordered a seafood trio and atlantic salmon. It took a while for the food to arrive and the dishes arrived cold. The calamari and fries were soggy, making it a very expensive deep-fried seafood basket that quickly became difficult to eat. The grilled salmon was so salty it was almost inedible. The only positive might be the salads that were in comparison done way better than the proteins. The hollandaise sauce that went with the salmon was also decent. For the price you pay at approx 30 a dish this was disappointing. Ambience was pleasant with live music but nothing to shout about.

I decided to take my partner on a quick lunch date here the other day. The lunch deal which was the rump steak was amazing, it come with a salad with an amazing dressing and some beer battered chips. Definitely coming again next week.

Singer was great! We only had beer but because the music is good and we had a great time!! Haha would definitely recommend for Friday night drinks.

I really wasn't expecting anything. I was doing the double take on going here before walking in. I figured it'd be a tourist trap with overpriced, poor quality Food.<br/>I'm happy to report... I'm wrong.<br/>I had a very enjoyable breakfast. I'm not a vegetarian, but enjoy a meat free adventure. The full Veggie breakfast was really good. Good quality ingredients, cooked well.<br/>Great view of pedestrians below, with a clean fresh layout inside<br/>Points off for pretty average coffee & service varied dramatically depending on who you got. Bubbly & nice to borderline sour (maybe shy ??)<br/>I'd definitely go back. I really wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was.

Nice place to chill and have beer while you are in the city! Mainly at night time when there is live music!<br/>Friendly staff and casual environment

The worst steak I've ever eaten! Its like I'm eating a rubber band. The fish and chips tastes like bland. Looks like the chef is very unhappy as it reflected on her/his dishes. The crews were not smiling too. Looks tired and unhappy. Too bad, because the place is very good to relax but the food is terrible.

Great vibe and awesome live music! Affordable and delicious food! Loved this place :) lx jugs of beer! Had a lot of fun with my friends! Will be back for sure!

The steak tastes good but one thing disappointed me is that I ordered medium cooked steak but they give me well cooked one. The salad tastes really good. I haven't finish the dish but I'm full.

One of the most chilled out places in Brisbane CBD. Good food and love the beer battered fries. Live band and good ambience makes it just right. One of my best hangout spots.

I have been here quite a few times and I was never disappointed. Food comes out quick and taste is great. Obviously I don't compare it to the fine dining restaurant as it is a bar in the end and it serves good bar food. Plus if you have entertainment book then it is buy 1 get 1 free, what more can I ask?!?'

The steak was horrible. I ordered the reef and beef and the steak tasted as if I was eating cardboard. The salad wasn't fresh, it was probably made days ago and chucked into the fridge. $35+ for a reef & beef I would expect better, a lot better.

Great range of beers on tap which are served in extra large jugs which makes this place great. Friendly customer service. The place has been updated since I came a few years ago to with the whiter Hampton look. The Moroccan lamb salad had more salad leaves than pearl Cous Cous but it still tastes alright.

Bad attitude.<br/>When I told them I cancelled the dinner booking politely. They hung up the call without saying anything. This is unacceptable for me as a customer. <br/>I will never go to beach house for meals.

Good place for lunches and dinners, and with a club card you get 25% discount on main meals.  However, every time we have had breakfast here it was bad.  Eggs overcooked, sausage looks deep fried, and missing items like hash browns that you then have to ask for separately.   So I would recommend the Beach House (really any of their branches we have tried) for a casual dinner/lunch, especially on the nights they have a special on, but will stay with the Coffee Club for breakfast to be on the safe side!

First time here... Great atmosphere. <br/>Food on the other hand is appears to be prepared driven food cooked up.<br/>Very disappointing considering the effort they put into the layout.<br/>Sorry to say... Lift your game...

Easy to access restaurant with live music on the weekend. There is quite a variety of food offered and the vibe is nice. Portions are big, a good place to relax after a day of work or on the weekend. Prices are reasonable.

Had lunch here last weekend. I had nachoes which were fine, my two friends had steaks and they looked really juicy and yummy. They tasted great too I was told, plus they were only $13! Awesome.

Cheap, easy and friendly. The food is really good and tastefull. The staff is also great. Paulo is such a good bloke. Always a good spot to spend the afternoon.

Fabulous quick meal at lunch. Good place for enjoying at fridays evening. Inexpensive place, great atmosphere and attentive staff. Highly recommended!

I tried steaks many time there which honestly always was good but I'm not sure about fish & chips or pasta carbonara! The fish wasn't crispy at all! Pasta was sooo greasy!!! After eating pasta I didn't feel well at all! Maybe just should try steak. Also live music is terrible. Sit as far as you can.

Good spot for relaxing with a drink after work as they sometimes have live music. Expect generous servings of pub type grub which obviously goes well with the beachy atmosphere. If you are lucky enough to score a window seat you can also have a birds eye view of the mall area below

In a great position in the Myer Centre this is a long time establishment and great for a burger and chips. I had the chicken Ceasar salad and they modified it for my fish allergy and the husband had the burger - which was as big as his head. The only gripe was waiting 20 minutes for a drink - ridiculous. All the locals got to the bar and pushed in constantly - no manners.

I have been to three different Beach House Bar & Grills in the last 4 months. Excellent food, excellent beer choice, excellent service and all round great value.

Really enjoyed beach house in the CBD. Meals are really nice if you enjoy pub style meals and sometimes there's live music which is awesome. Would recommend.

Beach house is a regular spot for me. I'm a big lover of steak and boy does this place deliver! The meals are huge and definitely satisfying. It also helps that it's a bar as well, so a cold cider goes down nicely.

Unimpressed. Went in for lunch today. Service was OK. I ordered the Lamb Burger. What arrived was disgusting. I grew up on a Prime Lamb farm in NSW, so I know lamb. This didn't even come close! It definitely was sausage mince. Could not eat it.

Great Place!. Went there on Saturday after shopping with the family. Great lunchtime steak deal that kept the kids happy and was only $13! Myself and my wife had a burger, and they were super delicious for a reasonable price too. Drinks were cheap, staff were friendly and the venue was great too. Overall it was a great place to go to get away from the busy shopping centre and enjoy a relaxing meal!

Save your money. The wait staff must honestly have the easiest jobs - one waitress was on her phone texting while a customer waited to get her attention. It's pretty much self serve here and if I'm going to pay $25 for a meal, I'd at least like someone to greet me with menus and provide us with water. The buzzer system is completely outdated as well. Waiting in line to order took a while but our meals came out relatively quick. I tossed up between the steak and the barramundi. I ended up ordering the fish with a baked potato and veggies, and it completely lacked flavour. There was no heart put on the plate - no sauce, no seasoning and mediocre presentation. Such a shame because the menu items could be pretty special. Won't be back unfortunately.

Great location, great live music, great young atmosphere. Stick to the pub grub selections (nachos, burgers, etc.) rather than the finer dining/overpriced options (there's better $34 New York striploin out there in the world) Overall, a genuinely nice time that you have to experience at least once.

Tough, feathery wings :(. We used to have chicken wings here all the time and it was great. They have probably changed suppliers recently, because the chicken was tough, tasteless and more than ample feathers still attached. Not a pleasant experience.

Read this before eating here: http://m.brisbanetimes.com.au/queensland/queen-street-mcdonalds-fined-most-in-brisbanes-foodhall-of-shame-20140509-zr7wm.html

Good place for a pre-movie feed.<br/>Sure it's basic pub style meals but who doesn't love a $9.90 steak? Lots of other menu choices too.

Excellent place!. Beautiful view! delicious food, especially the steaks! and the live bands over weekends are just awesome! have come many times here! never felt disappointed! Kudos!

Mini rib fillet veges and baked potato with mushroom sauce on a wed night. Very loud live act so could barely hear each other, I asked for steak medium rare - was medium-well done. Veges were like a soggy frozen stir fry mix and baked potato which was crunchy on the inside and dry skin on the outside covered in sour cream. Sauce and Wine was good.

Great buffalo wings. Went with some workmates for buffalo wings Tuesday. Great flavours and enjoyable environment. I liked it.

Monday steak nights are the best! Can't beat 9.90 for decent serving of steak with chips & salad. Friendly staff but there is a lack of standard within the making of drinks... Overall would rate a thumbs up though!

Food no. Only good for drinks after the movies

Average food. Good music. Convenient location. Friendly staffs. Would def return.

Love it!. The Beach House Bar and Grill $12.95 lunch rump is mine and my partner's go-to for steak! Being 'poor Uni students' we're always on the lookout for cheap eats in Brisbane, and try as we might we've never been able to beat them for steak, chips, salad and sauce. We've never been disappointed by the always perfectly cooked medium rare steaks, the heapings of chippies and the salads with the oh-so-delicious dressing - if I knew the recipe for that dressing I would just eat salad all the time! We go back again and again!

Went to Beach House after hearing of $12.90 steak and chips lunch special, though instead opted for Maroochy Works Burger after I saw one go out from the kitchen. Looks very generous at a glance but majority of burger is taken up by thickness of top bun. Wagyu patty is bland and nothing short of processed. All in all, chips were great, burger was average at best - very bland and not a satisfying feed. For $16.90 would expect more. Can't fault atmosphere and location, but doesn't offer much more.

Absolutely disgusting food. The salt and pepper squid was hideous and I sent it back. Do not go there for food!

Not your money's worth. <br/>I paid around 25 for ravioli dish and it was awful! the dish was overly salty, undercooked and took longer to serve and other people got their dished and I ordered before them

Great for a quick lunch. We go here for work lunches a fair bit. It's great because everyone can pay separately (no fussing with bills at the end) and you're in and out fairly quickly.<br/><br/>The food isn't anything to go crazy over, but it does the trick for a quick lunch. It's your usual pub fare, and the burgers and schnitzels are huge serving sizes.<br/><br/>I wouldn't go here if you're after something fancy or amazing, but it's definitely worth it if you're stuck for meal ideas in the city.

Mhappy. Tks, just expose this type of misplaced efforts of culinary displeasure=Yeak ~ this is looking as leftovers out to keep the guard dogs into doing security patrol to keep the patron that do visit there in donating to such an effort one time only ^_^ BYE

Loves it. This is by far my favorite place to dine casually in the CBD! Live music, cheap booze and cheap huge meals!

Aussie burger as large as Australia itself!. Wow! I have never seen a burger so big! It contained all of the four food groups… and then some! So delicious and so filling! I didn’t need to eat breakfast the next day!<br/><br/>It was a Wednesday evening when my partner and I happened to be downtown and after a while, were in need of somewhere to eat. With our ever trusty coupon book with us, we found a 2-for-1 voucher on any mains at the Beach House Bar & Grill. Since we were close to the Myer Centre, we didn’t have far to go.<br/><br/>Getting into the restaurant was a bit of an effort. Lots of stairs, very crowded and you have to pick up your own order, makes this place not accessible for people in wheelchairs or with mobility devices.<br/><br/>The Beach House has a nice patio overlooking Elizabeth Street, that is, if you’re lucky to get a table by the edge. As they were all taken, we had the limited choice of sitting at cafeteria-style seating or sharing a higher up table with bar stools. We decided on the cafeteria-style tables as this would give us a bit more privacy. The music playing was so loud that it was hard to hear anything and finding a quieter table was impossible to do. (Not a good place for those wearing hearing aids!)<br/><br/>After my partner and I yelled at each other for a while – it wasn’t in a bad way – we both chose the same menu item. Beach House has a great selection of food and a decent range of prices: Their Light Meals (burgers, wraps, sandwiches) ranged from $13.90-17.90, Main Meals (rice, pasta, fish, chicken) from $18.90–23.90 and Flame Grill (steak, chicken) from $22.90–29.90, with an array of seafood choices as well.<br/><br/>In that my partner and I don’t often share dishes as this tends to lead to yelling – not in a good way – we both ordered the Maroochy Works Burger ($15.90), which I would call an “Aussie burger”.<br/><br/>My partner went up to order and returned with a noise/vibrating device that would go off when our meal was ready to be picked up. It was at that time we noticed that our cafeteria table was poorly marked with tiny reserved signs. As the seating was sparse we frantically started looking for another spot that was not directly under a speaker. Contemplating if we should just cancel our order and go elsewhere, a waitress walked by and we explained our dilemma. She said she’d help us find something and eventually she did. It was a high table with 6 seats, 3 of which were already preoccupied, and although the waitress had asked them, the patrons were definitely not happy to have us there. Well, that’s okay, as it works both ways. <br/><br/>While all of this was going on, our device went off and in all of the mass confusion, our waitress went and got our food for us! This was such a nice gesture and we greatly appreciated it! <br/><br/>Although we had ordered our burgers from the light meals section, there was no way this was a light meal! “Light” on the wallet maybe, but not “light” on the calories! This burger was massive! It was so big that I could only bite into its height by about half way, then I had to turn it upside down to complete getting all the way through it! There were so many generous toppings like egg, bacon, cheese, beets, tomatoes, lettuce, fried onion, etc. – and I’m sure I’m missing a few ingredients! Everything was fresh and flavourful! The burger pattie was 100% Wagyu beef and was definitely a homemade pattie. I was so impressed with this burger as this is how an Aussie burger should be, that I told my partner any time we have visitors from overseas we will be bringing them here!<br/><br/>If the size of the burger wasn’t enough, it came with chips, too! These chips were cut thicker and had a nice gold crispness on the outside and covered with the right amount of course salt! A must have if ever visiting this restaurant!<br/><br/>Quite surprisingly, I managed to eat the entire meal! The Maroochy Works Burger certainly is one that you can’t put down after picking up, so I just kept eating! It was truly fantastic and I’m so glad we chose the Beach House to eat at!<br/><br/>While we were there, a live singer with a guitar performed and this helped bring the volume down, but only slightly. I don’t know why restaurants feel the need to play music to the point it’s almost painful. The entire experience had been very enjoyable, but if I have one complaint, it’s that the music is too loud! Turn it down and let your patrons enjoy their conversations!<br/><br/>All in all, I found the Beach House was of great value and their food was wonderful! A vast range of dishes, there is certainly something for everybody! I also like the live music as it supports Brisbane’s local talent! I would recommend this restaurant for those who are big meat eaters as, after all, this is a grill place. I look forward to returning to this restaurant again especially when I’m significantly hungry and will arrive with a pair of earplugs!!

Disgusting!. I realise this is pub grub, my expectations weren't high - I didn't really expect anything. So I was surprised that it did enough to mortify me.<br/><br/>Obviously it's busy, crowded, noisy, rude, etc. That's expected. The food is no cuisine. That's expected. In fact, pretty average, tasteless, oily and disgusting. Not sure if I should expect that from pub grub too, but what ever.<br/><br/>What's not expected, however, is how dirty the plates were. I'm talking black/gray marks all over (and that's only the sides that the food WASN'T covering - hate to think how much the food was on top of). Thank god for the dim lighting, hey? Needless to say, I couldn't eat my food I was that disgusted. Needless to say, I can barely stand to look back on it, how disgusted I still am. You might want to look properly at the actual plate next time you go - obviously their dishwasher isn't working. Or you might not, so you can live in blissful ignorance. My first and last time.

Overpriced for pub food

Great atmosphere, food, all round pleasant evening. I travel to Brisbane on business and therefore dine out daily for the week. I tried out this place by chance during the week and loved it! I got the steak sandwich although the chicken snitzel i seen after i had ordered looked fantastic. (next time) there was music on, a good crowd there and I thoroughly enjoyed my evening, laid back, relaxed and although the staff didnt have the wow factor, I have no complaints. Food was great, staff likewise , atmosphere fantastic

Atmosphere is good, drinks are cheap, food is average. Avoid the nachos!!

Ordinary. The food here is overpriced and the drinks even pricier. There is no table service. I had a steak for $27 which was not too large and was supposed to be medium/rare - it was more medium/well done. Not wanting chips I asked for veg - they were either boiled to bits or a frozen collection of carrots, broccoli and beans - tasteless. The only redeeming feature was the live music.

I love Beach House!. I've been here 3 times; twice for lunch and once for dinner. The meals are very well priced and drinks are also reasonable. Both times I've had lunch here I've ordered a caramel milkshake (one of the best in Brissie!) and only $3.50. Staff are always very friendly. The meal sizes are great, I usually can't finish. Beach House is a sit where you want, order when you want, collect-your-own meal set-up. Buzzers are provided to let you know when it's ready and I've always had speedy service with my meals, especially at lunch time. At dinner time they have live entertainment as well. Always a great place for a casual meal with friends or family with lots of variety.

One of the meals I often have at beach house, is their lunch special rump. For $12.90, you get a pretty decent sized rump with chips and salad. Today my colleague had it with mushroom sauce. Usually the steak is quite tender for a rump, and its a great deal for the price.

It's always busy at the Beach House Bar & Grill so we went after work during the week. The service was good and the food came out pretty quickly. Jugs of beers are dangerous at $13 and we were lucky to get one of the raised up stool tables giving us a nice view over the railing. It's a pretty open place, even had a small bird fly past our heads during the evening.<br/>

Went to Beach House on a Monday Night to finally try out their Monday Steak Night ... Live Music at nights other than on Monday nights.. A good place to chill and relax, have a drink or two, or even more..
