Comments of Medley | Kangaroo Point
C. G.
What a great choice!!!! Last night I celebrated my 60th birthday dinner party at Medley. The table looked fabulous! Food was fantastic, the taste, the quality, presentation and details. Memorable atmosphere. The attention was very personal, efficient and friendly. Nick was very attentive to our requirements. Marguerite the manager of the restaurant discussed with me very single detail of dinner and I couldn’t be happier with the results.
D. M.
What a beautiful secret garden tucked away on the side of the brisbane river. It was such a relaxing place to have breakfast under the shade. I had no idea what a Welsh rarebit was but I ordered it all the same as it was delicious. So lucky to find this gem whilst visiting brissie and out for a morning walk.
S. P.
Very good. Great atmosphere and views of the river. Great place to start the day before taking a nice walk under the bridge and through the parks. My breakfast was delicious although - quite expensive?! It was the most expensive on the menu at $24 so admittedly there were cheaper option but it's a sign of the times when you pay $24 for avocado, corn fritter and 2 eggs without blinking 😬. It tasted great but on review I'd probably check out a few cheaper options next time. I'm sure they're just as nice. Would we go back? Absolutely, this is a really top spot in inner Brisbane.

Great place with amazing river view
Visited this joint on a saturday afternoon looking for a cafe to work at ended up spending 3+ hrs at Medley. Was a lil hard to find and parking is slim, but it was aptly compensated by superb service, views and food.
The staff were super nice and happily accommodated unusual request for an iced coffee without ice. The food menu is unique with world cuisine offerings, i tried the salad which was delicious.
The beautiful view was complimented with soothing live music.
B. B.
We recently enjoyed a wonderful date night at Medley. The food, service and overall experience was incredible.
J. M.
Excellent food, service, atmosphere and location. Expect to pay between $19 and 28 for a main at breakfast - we had the ratatouille & egg, crab omelette, smashed avocado. All above average in taste. Parking however, can be a challenge.
K. E.
Great view infront of the water, no building block the view, mocktail is the 𝐁𝐄𝐒𝐓 I have ever had!! I will definitely come back for that! Food was a bit average, fish was not fresh enough.... good thing is, its dog friendly restaurant! Waitress even gave me 2 water bowls for 2 dogs, very sweet 😄 and they are friendly to my dogs too!
M. H.
Had my husbands birthday party here and it was fabulous. We took over the whole restaurant and the food was excellent, the service outstanding and the venue was just perfect. Love that it is so private and beautiful looking right onto the river. Nick was so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great function spot.
M. S.
This was our first visit to Medley and we will definitely be back! It has a fantastic vibe that really showcases Brisbane’s outdoor lifestyle and in a very classy way. The staff were all very friendly and attentive from our arrival to departure. Although the seasonal menu (dinner) isn’t large, you are sure to find several dishes that will be difficult to choose from. The food was outstanding. This is now one of our faves in Brisbane and would be ideal for bringing people who are visiting our city.
R. M.
Great location on the Brisbane River. Very simple menu but great food and friendly service. A lovely spot to while away the afternoon with a beverage or two or catch up with friends over a coffee and sweets.
J. L.
Fantastic painting experience at the recent Dine & Paint, sadly the meal was average at best. Nice fish ruined by too much butter & presentation (on mashed potatoes no other veg which meant it was very pale fish on off-white potatoes which was visually unappealing) Taste was OK. Staff were excellent & fresh rolls were also excellent. Music was fine but too loud/unnecessary given we were trying to listen to what our painting instructor was saying.
E. R.
Friendly, prompt service. Beautiful location for our brunch. We enjoyed our coffee & red velvet hot chocolate. Meals were yummy & well presented.
D. L.
River front location, the place is nice perfect for a sunny day. The staff is polite and pretty quick to serve you. The meal was tasty, we tried the beef and the lamb dishes. I would like a bit more options but after all it's a good place to go for lunch.
M. M.
Great place to host a group lunch. Staff made the event process very easy and the their service was spectacular. Food was delicious, you could really tell it was made fresh. Would highly recommend!
A. C.
Initially the specific table I requested wasn’t reserved but the staff asked the people at the table if it was OK for them to move and all was good from them on.
The food and service was very good. The selection of mains was small: venison, rack of lamb, snapper and a vegetarian dish. I would have liked something a bit different in addition, maybe a pasta dish or paella for variety.
T. R.
Beautiful Indoor Outdoor Area. Don't let the menu fool you, the food is fantastic. We went and took a punt when we arrived because nothing on the menu appealed to either of us. Both dishes were phenomenal. Great Work.
M.
One of the best locations in Brisbane to have breakfast or a coffee. Been here on numerous occasions and proves to be consistent.😊
H. B.
Have been enjoying the food, drink and hospitality at Medley for a few years now. It’s set in an historical site with the perfect ambience of Brisbane River and iconic Story Bridge.
Thanks to Nick and his staff for great quality eats, drinks and service!!👍👍
E. B.
Medley restaurant was our first choice to celebrate one of my dear girlfriends 40th breakfast. Perfect location on Brisbane river. We were greeted with a smile and the table was ready for 25 ladies for a Sunday session. We were all presented with a card where you could pay and add things to your account. The coffee and drinks were on time. The food was amazing and warm. We were allowed to have some time to celebrate by bringing our own cake and have some time to open the prezzies. It was a great morning. Thank you Nick and staff. Our beautiful waitress had all of the orders right and never forgot about us. This is such a must visit place. Hidden gem in Brisbane and worth a visit. I will be back for sure

“Asian Omlette” & “Bacon & eggs”
Staff here are great, we were lucky to get a great table as walk ins.
Coffee was incredible & the food was unbeatable, they had some great & out of the box options but my partner decided to go with just basic bacon & eggs. My Asian omelette was so tasty, heavy for a breakfast item but hit the spot!
The views & atmosphere are stunning!
Food - 10/10
Staff - 10/10
Environment - 10/10
Overall Combined - 10/10

The lamb special really was special, it was juicy, delicious and thoroughly enjoyable. We had a table for ten on wednesday evening sitting on the deck, fortunately the wind had dropped and had a terrific evening. Service was very good, taking care of my food intolerance, and getting everything right. Everyone enjoyed their food (and drinks!), the service and general ambiance. A final bonus - great value too.
D. H.
I stopped for coffee and I was not disappointed I was excellent and I am fussy! Having lived in Melbourne it’s nice to find somewhere that serves quality coffee! The food looks amazing too I am looking forward to trying it real soon!
M. K.
We have chosen the Medley to have dinner there to honour my mum's live who's funeral was held at the same time in Europe. The festive atmosphere there and the closeness to the river got me to book the place. I was more than excited to see that they have venison on the menu. It is a rare find here in Australia and was my mum's favorite. Not just that it was cooked to perfection. I would give it 10 stars if I could. The other dishes from a small menu were also perfectly done and presented. What a beautiful and emotional experience. Thank you staff from the Cafe Medley
M. Z.
We couldn't have asked for a better service, quality of food and scenic location. Thank you to Marguerite, Nick and the rest of your team for providing the perfect function.
J. P.
10/10 Went here for my girlfriends birthday and the experience was excellent. The food, music and whole atmosphere was great. Staff were super lovely as well and helped make my partners birthday even more special. Lastly, we were able to try the new spring menu and everything we tried was amazing. Highly recommend this venue.
D. M.
We had such a delicious meal on Thursday with our group. All the meals I didn't order, that others ate, were well received and looked good too. The service was excellent and the setting on the river creates a relaxing atmosphere. We appreciate that the owner, Nick gives a discount to locals even if we don't ask.
O.
Stunning views. The staff were super friendly. The food was delicious (so yummy that i didn't get time to photo it)Definitely will come back.
M. B.
We always love dining at Medley. Beautiful atmosphere beside the river and fabulous food. I have now celebrated two of my children’s 30th birthdays there and they are so accomodating!!
A. D.
Went for breakfast on our marriage anniversary. Frankly, was a bliss to be there. They take online reservations and got the option to choose special occasions. They made sure to reserve the best table for us, with the best river view. Staffs were very friendly and their warm hospitality won our hearts. It was an extremely hot and humid morning today, still they served with a winning smile on the face. The savoury crepe was just perfectly made. Parking could be a bit of a challenge, as there's not too many spots onsite. However, managed to get road-side parking. Surely, one of the best spots in and around Brisbane for breakfast. Highly recommended.
U. L.
The view of the restaurant is phenomenal. It really can't find anywhere that has better view than this place in Brisbane especially at night time. The restaurant is clean and tidy.
The food part, no thousands of item on the menu(which you really shouldn't have too many item on the menu anyway ( for you to pick but everything you are picking is definitely worth of trying. On the other hand, if you not fancy anything spicy, make sure you let the chef knows. It takes a bit of time and effort to fully understand the chef's creation, but when you do get it, you will be amazed by how much creativity they put inside.
Price wise was bit of expansive, but consider the location, it's 100% understandable.
Sum it up ,
5/5 for location
5/5 for presentation
4/5 for food
4/5 for price
5/5 for service
10/5 for view 😉
D. K.
Very friendly staff just like blooming Jacaranda Trees!
Beyond imagination of scenery and food quality
Lovely and calm river view and very pleasant
R. K.
Beautiful seating looking at the River. Beautiful Food & Friendly Staff
K. L.
Great views and creative food options. Very busy though, would recommend booking.
L.
Love the Medley! Been here so many times I've lost count. It's always a favourite for my family & friends! Beautiful spot by the Brisbane River!
M.
Iv been coming here for as long as I can remember. I brought my family and friends here regularly….but for the first time last weekend I was extremely disappointed with the service we received…the weight staff were snappy and dismissive and the orders were mixed up or just wrong.
I really hope this is a once off because I want to continue coming here.
M. B.
Our work Christmas lunch took place at Medley on Friday, 17th December 2021, and it was a complete success, thanks to Nick and Marguerite for their organisation, communication, friendliness and for always been available to advise on the food choices etc. On the day Marguerite was a superb Manager ensuring that everything ran smoothly. We have booked again next year for our Christmas lunch. Thank you Medley for a wonderful experience.
B. E.
Very cordial staff, great food - excellent ambiance
A. B.
Fantastic outlook. The food we were served was to die for. And the service was the best I had ever dealt with. The staff were fantastic.
Two thumbs up.
J. W.
A beautiful location overlooking the Brisbane river. A really good menu and friendly staff. Cant wait to go back at night to see how pretty it is with the beautiful lights and the Storey bridge in the background.
S. B.
Great coffee.. fantastique views of the Brisbane river.. food looks good.. very popular with locals.. Nice staff.. plants for sale a well run place..highly recommended!
P. C.
Called in just for a drink, had a tea, coffee and banana bread. Delicious and served quickly with a smile. We will be back at other times of the day for a meal based on this experience:)
K. D.
Dining here was wonderful experience for the girls and I. We really enjoyed our Sunday brunch with the view of the calm river . The staff were very friendly and welcoming and recommended great dishes for us to try. If you are after something a little more lighter than the Medley Sunrise, we highly recommend their Eggs Ratatouille and the Market Fresh dishes. To finish off with something a little naughty, their Irish Cream and Passionfruit Elixir is a definite yes! We look forward to returning again, thank you for the great experience.
J. D.
How do you beat this? Chilled environment with amazing food. Probably the best personal service I’ve experienced in Brisbane. I highly recommend doing a river walk and ending with a phenomenal meal. Two thumbs up. 👍
E. I.
Very cozy beautiful place with a nice view, amazing live music on Fridays night and very polite friendly waitress. The waitress with red dyed hair was so lovely....
I tried Margarita & French Kiss cocktail, loved the Margarita. The French Kiss was a bit too sweet for my taste.
I also mistakenly chose Duck patte, it wasn’t for me, but hey it was my own mistake
N. M.
One of the most beautiful places in Kangaroo Point to enjoy nice meals with an wonderful view to the Brisbane river.
Love my breakfasts there and a nice cold drink on the afternoon.
Very friendly stuff always with a huge smile to serve you.
I think pictures speak by themselves.
R. T.
Beautiful cafe/venue situated close to the river. We've ordered 2 flat white coffees, but 1 half strength for me. But, have to make my coffee 3 times as it is not flat enough and half of it is foam, but my partner ask for extra cold milk and it never been provided. 😐. As a hospitality worker myself, enthusiasm and service what makes us stand out, that's what it's missing out 1 🌟. Maybe we will order 🍷 next time perhaps. 😉
C. L.
Not what I expected. Parked on the street, but realised there are quite a few car parks there for the restaurant itself.
Even though it was a really warm day, it was very pleasant outside by the river.
I had the barramundi which exceeded expectations. Hats off the the chef who was able to deliver delicious food despite there being a power outage in the area—well done.
G. P.
This is a most beautiful cafe positioned on the river away from the noise and activity of the Storey bridge. The little plant pots for sale there pull at my heart strings.
J. G.
Finally made it to Medley! It was so lovely to sit outside on such a beautiful day. The food was generously served and we had some great wine with it. Service attentiveness was lacking as I seemed to have to call waiters over every time I needed to order. However, this small quaint cafe is such a sweet getaway spot. Definitely recommended.
I. C.
Recently celebrated my 42nd birthday at Medley. I am grateful for the service, the food & alcohol that was provided for us (my guests and myself) on the night! The venue was set-up exactly the way I want it, the food was amazing - taste, quality, presentation and quantity. Surely a great value for our money :-). Thank you so much to Nick, Mr Fox and the rest of the team accomodating me last minute and pulling it off so well. You guys made my event so special. As the celebrant seeing your guests happy and had fun is a huge factor. Thank you Medley!
G. G.
A perfect spot to celebrate, lots of shade with a cool breeze on a hot day, jazz guitarist in the background and of course the fabulous food and attentive staff.
Every item we tasted was delicious - duck pate starter to share, then the veal, barramundi and ribs as mains. Don't start me on the desserts - you'd be a fool to miss them. Sublime!
Thanks Medley xxx
S.
Great location overlooking the river. We were also able to get a spot in their parking lot. However, if you want to make sure to see the river from your table, you need to book ahead or else you might end up sitting at the entrance like we did even though we arrived before they take lunch orders. The meals were delicious, but required a bit more seasoning.
Unrelated to food: the restaurant had two partition walls left against the entrance wall, which were seemingly not secured. Due to the blowing wind, one of them fell right on the empty chair of our table (luckily). The staff came, picked it up, and put it back where it was without securing it.
M. B.
Had a business breakfast at this awesome place this morning. Wonderful eggs benedict and hands down the best cold brew coffee I have had in a long time! highly recommend this friendly awesome place
S. P.
Good staff and customer service and the view was nice
C. L.
Great place~ very comfortable there with the view of the Brisbane river~ food was great! 😋~ pet friendly also~ just was a bit confusing as to how to get your pet onto the deck~ other than that no complains~
W.
What a hidden gem. Stunning location, wonderful staff, great coffee. I plan to return to try the food.
L. B.
This place is really nice! Beautiful location right on the river and a good people watching spot! The food and coffee are both really good and the service is also pretty good! Love walking here from KP! Had the Baklava and it was just okay, I'd save it for an authentic restaurant that can do it properly. It had WAY too much cinnamon!
K. D.
Cosy restaurant with a gorgeous view to river, friendly staff and good quality food. The presentation of meals can be a little bit improved. However, I don’t think it’s fair to drop any stars for that.
R. C.
Beautiful view, great food and amazing service. We were lucky to enjoy some really great Christmas lunch. Delicious
T. A.
,great location on the water, plenty of seating, table service, good variety in menu. Coffee was good. Ordered hotcakes off menu, not what I expected, was more a donut, but amazing so delicious. Definitely going back to try the "adults only" version
'edit Feb 2019 - I'm assuming this place has changed hands, went back to get the same awesome hotcakes as in the photo and they are no longer in the menu. Wasn't happy with the new menu at all, if handy of all ready ordered coffee. Would have gone elsewhere '
B. F.
Thank you for a beautiful dining experience!
I booked here for lunch for a friends birthday on the weekend and we absolutely loved this place. I have always wanted to dine here after walking past many times. The food was exceptional and the customer service flawless. Stunning view of the river and city as well as being shaded by the trees on the outdoor deck. I will definitely be booking here again, thank you to the team and chefs.
L. S.
Great river view with creative lunch menu. Portion size can be bigger.
C. G.
5 star for the views. Kitchen was closed when we visited so have to come back early next visit to try the what's on offer. Drinks quite pricy. The live jazz singer was 👏 brilliant. Enjoyed his performance.
D. T.
An amazing night. Spectacular location and ambience. All member of the team were knowledgeable, friendly and talented.
Behind the scenes, the Chef created wonder after wonder - brought out by the friendly wait staff. The sommelier knew his wines which matched perfectly to each course. The perfect Brisbane winter night was capped off by the flamenco guitarist plucking away in the background.
A perfect way to celebrate our 10th Anniversary on a perfect Brisbane winter night. An extra treat was the baklava with our morning coffee the next day.
J. S.
Had lunch (snack) and breakfast there while we were staying in Kangaroo point. Both times .LOVELY and very pleasant service. Good coffee too AND what a spot!!! Beautiful area especially with all the jacarandas out!!
M. P.
Enjoyed a lovely 21st Birthday lunch with family at Medley yesterday. The food was deliciously outstanding, the staff were helpful & friendly and the vista was to die for. An excellent place to go for a romantic meal, or to catch up with friends! A truly enjoyable experience & can't wait to return!
A. L.
One of the best coffee shops in Brisbane.
Friendly staff and amazing coffee and if you like a bonus, the view is superb.
Did I mentioned that they also serve a splendid food?
Don't listen me, go there now and take your own conclusions ;)
M. B.
Perfect spot to watch the river flow by
T. E.
Been here for lunch before and very much enjoyed it. We returned for breakfast on Sunday and enjoyed it just as much. Friendly staff, a lovely cool breeze coming off the river and wonderful food. What more could you ask ?
S. W.
Delightful dining experience, from the time we arrived (early) to be greeted and no fuss with finding us a small table to enjoy a refreshing drink while we waited for the rest of our group to arrive. I must say that the wait staff are amazing! The menu choices were great and the food tasty. Love the view of the river and the stunning big tree that adds to the warmth and atmosphere of this lovely place. We will be back a great spot to bring interstate family and friends to showcase our beautiful city.
C. L.
Really enjoyed lunch at Medley, nice small menu packed with flavours.Friendly staff, fantastic views of Brisbane river.
N. K.
We booked the Riverfire 2021 dinner package. Awesome ambience, yummy food, excellent service!! We were able to enjoy the food and a short walk to Captain Burke park for the bird's eye view of the fireworks. Overall 5 star experience.
N. A.
AMAZING this is definitely a 5 star restaraunt, the food was scrumptious and desserts OMG and an absolutely peaceful vibe with amazing views would highly recommend this place 😍👌🏼
S. H.
Beautiful setting, a real hidden gem. Thai pork salad was very filling and bloody tasty.
K. D.
It was my husband's birthday so what better way to start it then with breakfast by the river at The Medley Cafe.. the service, food and atmosphere were wonderful. My husband was made to feel extra special when he was presented with a delicious slice of baklava (topped with a sparkler) and the staff singing Happy Birthday! We've been several times before and will keep coming back. Thanks again.
D. R.
Brilliant food, delightful setting, good service. Will definitely come again.
B. k.
Service was amazing! We are particularly impressed by Sylvia's work ethics! She may be a senior but tirelessly working all day. And of course the amazing cakes she makes in house is delicious. We are very happy to have celebrated a 60th birthday here yesterday with the staff singing happy birthday with us. Thank you!
L. S.
A most wonderful evening. Excellent food and the service above and beyond. The beautiful setting was then added to by the most exquisite guitarist playing right through the night. So magical did not want to leave. Thank-you to the local hair dresser who recommended this place.
T. T.
The most stunning location, tables are nicely spread out, staff are so friendly, food is always amazing no matter the changing menu, drinks are delicious and the music makes such a nice vibe! Honestly have zero negative things to say
T. L.
We had a brilliant function at Medley Kangaroo Point. Fantastic food, exceptional location, well priced and very attentive staff. All 30 meals came out at the same time, piping hot and tasty. Certainly ticked all the right boxes for us. Thank you, Medley.
M. D.
Thanks Nick for all your support with this years Soup for the Soul to raise awareness for Head and Neck Cancer. the 7th biggest caner in Australia. You support is appreciated by not only the people who attended but also those that are still going through treatment. Many thanks.
A. B.
We recently enjoyed a fabulous breakfast at Medley and would absolutely recommend. The view is amazing, food was delicious as was the coffee and the Irish cream coffees were a great mid-morning treat to begin our girls day. Will definitely be back!
D. B.
Nice location.. Great food, good service.. Definitely will be back again.
K. H.
Beautiful restaurant & location, all of the staff were lovely & the food was excellent & l have a new wine on my list.
A. K.
We had our 40th party at the Medley, it was such a beautiful place, wonderful atmosphere, the canapes were amazing and the staff were helpful and provided great service.
Would 10/10 recommend visiting this place.
J. F.
Wonderful venue. Main course was rather meagre. Pleasant staff.
R. S.
Lovely secluded and green location - bit of a hidden gem in that sense. Veggie food a bit of a let down. Great bread and solid drinks choice.
G. S.
Magnificent staff & a magnificent owner!
Wonderful coffee in a wonderful location.
I would recommend Medley to anyone!
J. P.
Food was beautifully cooked and presented, wonderful service and lovely outdoor seating with a view of the river. I took my two year old there and the staff was so welcoming and kind towards him. We will definitely be dining there again.
T. O.
We had a lovely dinner for two. The atmosphere that evening , overlooking the river, with a live guitarist playing was the perfect background for a well prepared meal and wonderful service. The most positive thing about Medley, which I would say is world class, is the staff. Nick has a wonderful team of friendly and helpful staff who obviously love the Medley too. I judge a restaurant by their staff as if they are happy and efficient then everything else will follow. Nick has done a wonderful job in establishing a community focus at Kangaroo Point with a guaranteed positive experience. Highly recommended for an excellent food, service and atmosphere. Terry O’ Neill
M. T.
Beautiful restaurant with a beautiful view... super friendly customer service and they were very attentive to us. The live music (Mediterranean guitar) was very lovely also. Thank you Medley for a great experince.
S. C.
We had our Christmas dinner at Medley , the service and food was excellent . Highly recommend for a group or a romantic dinner .
B. J.
Gorgeous spot. Enjoyed lunch surrounded by greenery and open space overlooking the river. Service was prompt and pleasant. I liked the menu. Dishes ordered were visually appealing and delicious. Planning to return for dinner soon. If you want a location that isn't crowded in by other establishments ... this delivers.
I. T.
I had a wonderful night with my fiancé, top service, delightful views of the river, great ambience and surroundings. We ordered the duck pâté and Sweet Coconut prawns as starters, they were absolutely delicious. We had baby barramundi and slow cooked ribs as mains, they were exquisite. Also great selection of drinks. A great experience for the senses. I highly recommend this place and will be back.
c. s.
Thank you for a lovely birthday brunch. Firstly, the thoughtfulness and service from staff was A1. Thanks Max. The location is amazing on the river, with lots of plants and greenery. The food was very very good as was the food presentation. Very highly recommend.
B. T.
Terrific location, imaginative and delicious menu, with attentive staff. It was worth trying, and I'll definitely be back for more.
S. T.
Great view and staff but menu was mediocre at best. A touch disappointing.
M. S.
Food was great, service was friendly. View is beautiful.
j. c.
Good food with good hygiene standards.....
Staff are Polite and friendly and helpful.....
Good Location & Settings
P. B.
Fantastic location, unique menu, stunning river views for sunrises or sunsets. Passionate staff. Enjoy a walk along the Brisbane river before and/or after your meal.
S. G.
Awesome riverside cafe, went there for Saturday brunch and had a fantastic time. Friendly staff, delicious food, reasonable pricing and fast service (it wasn't particularly busy though). Open design with great views of the river.
S. P.
My girlfriend and I had a lovely lunch here. Food was tasty. A larger selection might be nice. Weather was great and we sat out on the deck looking out to the river.
D. G. M.
The team at Medley Kangaroo Point were fantastic. It was my wife’s birthday and they gave us a great table with an amazing view. The staff treated our three daughters superbly during our evening meal. The quality of the food was sublime. I would highly recommend to anyone for a great dining experience or for drinks with a million dollar view.
A. Q.
We had a great birthday breakfast here. The view is spectacular and the food and service to match. My only comment of where there is room for improvement is please try to bring out what is ordered all together. We ordered eggs with a side serve of mushrooms and by the time the mushrooms came out we were 90% finished. Otherwise was terrific.
T. T.
We really enjoyed our Sunday brunch with the view of the calm river . The staff were very friendly and welcoming and recommended great dishes for us to try. If you are after something a little more lighter than the Medley Sunrise, we highly recommend their Eggs Ratatouille and the Market Fresh dishes.
N. O.
Really amazing food, staff are wonderful, live music (Thursday evenings) really added to the atmosphere. Will definitely go again.
c. w.
Very nice and quick-to-help staff, table beautifully set for our 14 people on arrival fo lunch. My friend loved the vege curry, the coconut sauce in the grilled chicken is well- mentioned. Me and my friend think the duck can be softer, the better. A bit more vegetables to the mains would be too good to miss. Still, great experience
L. R.
The food was fantastic, the location was beautiful. Will definitely go back.
A. F.
I dine at Medley often for a reason. Beautiful view! Chilled vibe! Great service and delicious food!
I highly recommend going for breakfast, lunch or dinner! You can’t go wrong 🤩
B. P.
The environment consisting of a lot of plants with a riverfront view was lovely, the animal accessibility was quite nice. The staff were friendly and attempting to be accommodating especially during COVID 19
However; this is where the hospitality ended.
It was hot as our booking was for 12:30pm, I arrived just after noon.
I was not given a menu (Drinks or Food) until I had to request such.
I had to ask twice for a dog bowl, ended up using my own glass to give my dog some water before the poor thing would pass out.
Eventually provided dirty dog water from another couple that had just left.
In conjunction i had informed 2 different wait staff that i have still no received my coffee.
I had to use my own water to fill the dog bowl resulting in my not having water. Then had to ask for two more cups with ice (as our booking was for two), and was given water with no ice. I had to ask a third time for ice.
Tally: 3 for ice, 2 for menus, 2 for dog bowl, 2 for coffee.
Its as if they just say yes and never do it? or forget? I'm really confused, maybe they just forgot my table? who knows.
Anyways; THANK THE HEAVENS the food was good. reasonably priced. pickled veg was a big sad and disappointing (need to increase vinegar in house ratio) aside from that a reasonable spending per head. House rose was a win also.

Medley is definitely a place I would recommend over and over again. I have never received such amazing service and food in my life. Thank you to everyone who worked so hard on Valentines Day. The manager is very attentive to his restaurant and the teams work has not gone unnoticed.

Medley is an amazing restaurant and venue. With it’s beautiful views, fantastic atmosphere, brilliant service and spectacular food, why would you need to go anywhere else. Thanks Nick for a really special night.

We recently held a 60th birthday lunch at Medley - from planning to the day of the lunch everything was well executed. We were most impressed with the attentive service, beautiful food and setting and our guests also commented likewise. Thank you.
T. W.
Had a wonderful time celebrating our wedding at Medley. All the staff were wonderful, meals were delicious, they kept the drinks flowing with a wonderful view of the river.
Thank you Nick, Mr Fox and team

Awsome service, amazing views, delicious meals

Lovely spot and great food. Went with a group of 7 for our monthly oldies catch up lunch and they all loved it. All the plates for the beef cheeks ended up clean and the curry was delicious. We were served by a trainee staff member, who was amazing. I had the soup, which was warm and creamy. Definitely a must do Brisbane lunch spot!
K. W.
We booked a table online on the day we were dining. We found it quite difficult to find as this little restaurant is tucked away and really is a hidden gem ! We had a lovely table for two on the deck celebrating my husband’s birthday. We both ordered the duck which was fabulous. A lovely bottle of rosé and the staff sang happy birthday and put a sparkler in our dessert. We were very impressed overall, next time we’re in Brisbane we’ll try breakfast or lunch.
F. C. C. B.
Great location with plenty of parking as well as paid street parking.
The place has a nice welcoming feel to it, and the food was delicious.
M. “. N.
Can't describe how much I enjoyed the food, coffee and location. It was amazing.
K. C.
I held an event at Medley recently, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. They were so helpful, the staff are really friendly and did a great job on my night. The food was excellent and the drink selection was wonderful. The owner Nick did everything he could to make my event the success it was. This is a great restaurant and venue, in the perfect spot on the river.
N. H.
It’s a great location and the menu and wine list were simple but very good (something for everyone) but the service was very slow.
As it wasn’t busy, I think it was just inexperienced staff. Not sure if they knew how to manage larger groups as there was a larger table of ladies celebrating a birthday at the next table.
N. G.
Just had the pleasure of Medley hosting our daughters 21st, food and venue were second to none, more importantly the staff and service was exceptional. Mr Fox, the events manager, had everything executed perfectly and nothing was too much trouble - Highly recommend!!!!
T. F. (.
A great place to visit again, nice view and food
P. G.
An excellent restaurant because of its food, service and exceptional location.
Elegant dining (moderate portions) with pricing about $60-$80 per person depending on the extent and choice of food and drink.
The presence of the Brisbane River, with its opposing shore and cliffs, the view of the Storey Bridge and the open design of the dining area make Medley a worthwhile dining experience for both visitors and locals.
K. S.
Officially one of my all time favourite spots for breakfast and now Friday night drinks and dinner. What a perfect way to unwind after a big week to soothing acoustic music. The lamb was delicious and strongly recommend the cheese cake!! Thank you for a refreshing experience Medley team! We’ll be back to try the lunch menu!
D. M.
The food at Medley is delicious and the servings are generous. The service was also fabulous, with our waitress waiting until everyone at the table had finished before removing the plates - a rarity in this day and age. Add a spectacular view of the river, and it's a 10 out of 10 from me!
S. F.
Cannot recommend this restaurant enough! We had a special birthday celebration with 15 ladies for lunch yesterday and the event was made memorable by the wonderful service by Mr Fox and the whole team. Wonderful idea of giving everyone their own bar tab with a card and a letter of the alphabet which they quoted when ordering drinks. Then they settled their tab at the need which included their food from an affordable set menu and their drinks. The food was wonderful and they served our own birthday cake beautifully. The position of the restaurant is on the river at Kangaroo Point with beautiful views and easy to find with parking close by. Thank you so much for making organising a group event stress free. 👏🙏🏼💕
S. Z.
One of my favorite spots during the day and at night
M. S.
I went there for dinner with my husband. I made the booking online and I specifically mentioned in the notes that it's our first time at Medley and it's also a birthday celebration dinner, and I asked if possible to be seated at a table with river views. Getting there we were greeted casually from afar by a guy asking us if we had a reservation, then made his way to us to check us in on his Ipad/phone, then offered us the table at the entrance while the restaurant was almost empty. Otherwise, he also showed us a table for 2 near the bar or kitchen entrance. Looking at all the free tables with views to the river (including the open-bar one overlooking the river walk) I asked if possible to find something for us over there, and after a couple of "no, those are all booked for bigger groups" he showed us to a corner table with the views that we wanted. When I say "he showed us to the table" I mean to say that he pointed to the table where we should go sit (once again, no courtesy in his gesture). 👎
However, not a great start for our first experience at Medley isn't it. 😐 It set us in a mood that we couldn't shake off for the rest of the evening, the more so as we thought Medley to be a world-class restaurant in a premium location in Brisbane. Food was ok, but we thought is was pricey for the available options and portions. Service was ok too, I wouldn't write home about it though.
A. S.
Stunning views, but another example of a restaurant earning a reputation from the view and not the food. Confit duck - duck was nice, but potatoes were not at all crispy and served with 6 beans, that's it. Still hungry afterwards so ordered a piece of orange and almond meal cake. Normally would expect an orange cake made on almond meal. No taste of orange at all, dry, hard and no sign of almond meal, just flour. Inedible. I took it back and said it was inedible, no sorry, no offer of another piece of cake. Great view but won't be going back.
A. R.
We had a wonderful experience on a Friday evening. Beautiful live music, fantastic service, friendly smiles and delicious food. The ambience is gorgeous both in the evening and during the day, it just feels like you're on a holiday. Plus, one of the best coffees in Brisbane. Definitely coming back :)
F. M.
Great to be back at Medley in the NY! As usual all the meals were AMAZING with outstanding customer service. One of my favourite places to eat !
J. R.
Beautiful city views. We were a little late (15 mins) but the staff were very accommodating. Nice food and wine. We had a great dining experience.
M. B.
Another wonderful lunch experience at Medley on Sunday. New Summer menu has lots of new & interesting offers. Our lunch group tested just about everything- with rave comments. Cheese platter was a great hit, but desserts let the side down - we felt they had sat around a bit too long. However we'll be back.
A. K.
A great view of the river. And the food is always delicious.
A. M.
We had a beautiful breakfast on Saturday morning. The location is stunning, the staff were attentive and really friendly. The food and menu were also great. I think the prices are very fair for the quality and experience. Only development feedback for me is that all staff need to be refreshed on the $20 per person booking hold. Upon paying, the girl just said 'it's been deducted' but it didnt make sense. Upon returning, the next waitress explained it perfectly and it made complete sense. We've already told our friends about this place, and cant wait to have a dinner experience there!
C. H.
Had organised a surprise birthday dinner for my wife. We and all our guests were absolutely satisfied with everything. Food quality were brilliant as well as the attentiveness of the entire team. Thank you for your hospiltality.
R. T.
It is a real pleasure to visit Medley. Always a warm genuine welcome from Nick and Althea - in fact all staff members. A gorgeous riverside spot, relaxing atmosphere - and some big favourites on the menu, consistently delicious.
M. T.
Great food, ambience and service: a fantastic dining experience.
G. R.
Found this great little place whilst walking along the river on a fantastic Sunday afternoon. Rang up and asked for a ‘walk in’ table. Too easy. Well the food was fantastic. The service was fast and friendly. What a great hidden gem . We will definitely be back.
D. E.
Great breakfast and service as usual. The pulled pork crepe was delicious. Happy Christmas to all the Medley Team who work so hard to not only create wonderful food but an excellent dining experience. Location, food, service and experience deserve 5 stars.
A. D.
Mr. Fox and his crew were fantastic! I even placed in a table request and he looked after us very well. Set up looked amazing with a river view and service excellent, with an extra touch of live music on V-Day. Highly recommended and thanks again to your crew.
C. R.
Amazing food with atmosphere to boot great friendly service
K. R.
We had a fabulous evening at Medley Cafe last Saturday, to celebrate our friends wedding. What a great place it is! The location and spectacular view, the delicious food, the brilliant service and friendly staff all come together beautifully and it'll now be our new 'go to' place!
S. D.
Good service, good food and arguably the best location in Brisbane.
T. C.
Medley is the perfect place for any occasion. We often just drop in for a coffee, sitting at the front with perfect river views. The service is always good and the food has always been great. I can’t fault this lovely restaurant.
M. F.
Really beautiful location on the river.
Friendly and attentive staff.
If I had to offer a suggestion it would be the main portions should be a little bigger.
All around would definitely come back.
j. b.
The food was delicious and service was matching. The staff were so friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and will be bringing friends along for sure! 😊 Thank you for making my birthday so memorable!

Lovely spot with amazing views. The duck pate was a stand out.
C. T.
We were a large group who were looked after very well during our Sunday extremely long lunch.
The staff were very obliging and patient.
The location is outstanding and so lovely to experience on an amazing Brissie Sunday afternoon .
S. L.
Wow this ticks all the boxes, great location and atmosphere, service and excellent food. The coffee hits the spot as well. Tucked away in Kangaroo point this is easy to access via Ferry or car. They have limited parking but plenty around the streets close by. Will be back for sure. Great view, parking on the weekend okay, nice spot for brunch. Food was well presented and priced. Service was good but initially had to remind staff that we were still waiting for our orders after 35 minutes. Would recommend.
S. M.
Wonderfully relaxing atmosphere with river and garden views. Service was excellent- prompt, friendly, food fresh.
A.
Enjoyed a very memorable birthday dinner with my family here. Our waitress carried a highly professional manner and was very attentive; the owner, Nick, greeted us warmly and made sure we felt welcomed and at home in the establishment, all coupled with some genuinely fantastic food that looked and tasted amazing, as well with a gorgeous view of the Brisbane river.
J. W.
Thank you so much Medley crew! My birthday cocktail party was amazing! Food and service was outstanding and the location at sunset just perfect 👌
H. M.
Excellent food - but! Very high prices and modest portions. To be expected of this sort of restaurant, and certainly the exceptional service and food make up for it, but it's not something I would recommend to everyone. Not family hostile, but not especially family friendly either. A good experience.
M. G.
Medley is our local cafe. Located in one of Brisbane's most beautiful riverside spots, they offer everything from a delicious cup of coffee to a fantastic dinner experience.
However, in this review I would like to thank the owner and the staff for their most wonderful response during the time of the COVID crisis. Under emergency government regulations the cafe and restaurant had to close, but Nick transformed the space into a fresh market. This meant he could continue to provide us with excellent takeaway food and coffee, but he also provided a cozy and warm local spot where we could get all the essentials that all supermarkets were running out of. The twilight markets and the new garden were lovely and sweet additions - a true oasis for the local community. Fantastic work!
S. T.
What a great spot! We accidentally came upon this darling little cafe whilst scootering around Kangaroo Point. Friendly staff, excellent service and relaxing view. The duck pate was to die for! I highly recommend 😃
M. M.
Booking online made the experience easier and we had a lovely table waiting for us when we arrived. Great food, good service and a beautiful location for a relaxed weekend meal.
T. B.
Thank you for a lovely lunch. The atmosphere was relaxed and the food was sensational. We will definitely be back. I really enjoyed the birthday song for my son. Thanks again.
S. S.
One of our favourite spots to eat when we come to Brisbane - looking forward to when the live music starts up in September as it makes the perfect Sunday afternoon. Friendly, attentive staff & good food. Well Done.
J. B.
Gorgeous location - but was not impressed with my vegetarian dish. It sounded nicer than it was. I expected some sort of curry - with the veg cooked in it and rice on the side. The selection of veg were sitting on top of a rather bland sauce and were quite dry. The whole dish was bland. If you are charging the same as for a decent portion of meat then it needs to at least be tasty. Service was very nice, but we also had issues with splitting the bill. Not all had brought cash. That needs to be more prominent on your website. We were transferring money online to one person while still at the table - as it was a social meetup group.
Won’t be rushing back unfortunately.
M. M.
I have dined at the cafe previously and always enjoyed the meals. This time around I bought 2 friends who had never been there to celebrate my birthday and friendship. They also enjoyed the food, atmosphere and service. Continue to do what you do best. We are going to come back on a Sunday arvo for drinks next! Thank You.
V. M.
we recently had a milestone birthday event at Medley. The team were so helpful, friendly, and made everything so easy. Even in the middle of COVID, nothing was too hard. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was superb. Thanks Mr Fox and your team for making it a really special night.

Service was wonderful, view is best in Brisbane and the food great. Thank you Nick and staff especially Marguerite for looking after us.

We attended Medley on 6 August 2020 for my partners Birthday. Firstly, I must say the restaurant practices good COVID-19 practices which made me feel immediately relaxed. The food was fantastic with a special call out to the chef who prepared duck pate and lamb rack….absolutely delicious and full of flavour! We were served by Mr Fox. The service was exemplary with a warm sense of humour. Overall the view, service and food were perfect, I could not have asked for a better location to celebrate a birthday dinner. Highly recommend.
s. a.
all 14 people had a really great 80th birthday celebration. thank you to g0rgia and staff. Only wish there were vegetables with main course. Antipasto plates were delicious.We will be back . A truly beautiful spot to relax with friends.

What a beautiful way to spend a Sunday afternoon on the amazing brisbane river. We loved the tasting platters and delicious cocktails. The service was friendly and great. The live music really made it special.
R. S.
Had a lovely lunch here. Friendly and attentive service. Nice wine selection. Small menu but both choices great quality. Fabulous views. Shady outdoor dining. Essentially Queensland.
P. G.
Eatery stunningly located on the Brisbane River with good service modern style food menu and drinks and an ambiance that you could while away the afternoon or City Hop on the river from nearby Dockside to another riverside location.
Book online prior to save any disappointment.
G. K.
Thanks Medley Team. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, everything was perfect. Our reserved table was ready for us. Service was prompt and food - especially the starters, delicious. We’ll be back.
C. H.
Lovely lunch, great setting; the sword fish with the grape and olive salad was delightful and full of flavour. A little disappointed in the lack of choice with most of the mains coming with vegetables rather than salad options. The menu is not extensive, there is not really entree options other than bread. There was no side orders on the menu which l found odd. The kids menu also lacked some basics such as chips.
T. O.
We love dining at Medley or even just taking in the glorious views of the river and Nick's gardens over a cup of excellent coffee. Nick has gone to a lot of effort to train his staff, create a wonderful ambiance and most importantly at this time, ensure that all guests are Covid 19 safe. He has created a combination of cafe, restaurant, corner store and market. Produce is fresh and the cooking is divine. Highly recommended. Terry O'Neill
S. H.
Enjoyed a Sunday afternoon drink and bar meals which were plentiful and delicious. Service was attentive and on point. Even with the overcast weather the view was great! Will be back.
G. C.
Magnificent views looking over the Brisbane River and the Story Bridge
The food and service was excellent also fabulous guitarist playing which was a lovely bonus !
T. E.
We had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant. It was the last night in Brisbane and we stayed a few blocks from this restaurant. The ambiance of the place was fantastic and the service was excellent. The food!! We had their signature salmon dish and massaman vegetable curry, with a few glasses of wine. AND, almond milk custard with fruit. Everything was quite amazing. Wine was priced quite reasonably. We would definitely go back again. It is not suitable for a large group to party but great for an intimate date.
J. M.
Faaaaantastic brunch at Medleys. So well presented, healthy and tasty. Amazing atmosphere and friendly staff. Thank you staff and Mr Fox - great bunch of people and best brunch in town without a doubt. Please keep it up!
J. G.
Food and service was great, we booked for our group plus dog. Walked in, the table was ready and the wait staff were very attentive. Every one was happy with their food and drink choice and the portion sizes were reasonable for the price. The view was also amazing. Will definitely return - the dinner menu also looks worth trying out!!
L. D.
This is a beautiful location close to the river. The staff were very friendly, and the social distancing was well maintained. We enjoyed a very nice lunch in a lovely atmosphere under the trees and overlooking the river.

Such an amazing place! First time and will definitely return. The service and food were simply perfect! Highly recommended for date night or anniversary.

Thank you for your wonderful hospitality taking great care of my family on Xmas day! We felt valued as a customer from the moment we walked into your restaurant until we left. Your staff were very welcoming and friendly, nothing was too much trouble looking after nine of us for Xmas lunch. The food, service and atmosphere ensured our Xmas lunch was special. We also enjoyed the background live music you provided.
I would highly recommend this restaurant for Xmas lunch or at any other time. Thank you again from my family, for a wonderful Xmas lunch experience!

BRILLIANT! Best swordfish I've ever eaten. It was an honour to take our overseas guests to such a wonderful restaurant. Once again the service was impeccable and so friendly. It was a beautiful evening and such a delightful riverfront setting. I highly recommend this restaurant.
G. G.
Menu has been touched up and meals are very good. Atmosphere is now very vibrant and a pleasure to eat and take in the views, surrounded by homegrown plants. Well done.
P. K.
Great first experience at this restaurant for both my wife and I. We both enjoyed our food, my wife had the benedict and I had the chimichanga which was very appetizing. Service was timely and staff were friendly. Both the man who welcomed us and the young lady that served us were very well-mannered and friendly. We will definitely be coming back.
G. K.
Another very enjoyable experience dining at Medley. The staff are excellent - competent and friendly, and the range of food items has returned to the scale and quality they had pre-COVID. We had a very pleasant coffee and cake in their delightful surroundings at Medley. We look forward to our next visit.
M. W.
Great food! Beautiful views!
Helpful staff!
E. S. A.
Good selection of breakfast options. Very comfortable seating. Lovely design, garden and river views of the spring season.
Perhaps just in other places, better to inform the kitchen about preferences upon ordering to avoid any disappointments, ex: very hard and cold toasts.
R. S.
Staining with the good, this place has a great view and in a great location. The staff the served us were friendly and smiled which was refreshing and we're happy to help. The food was good quality and tasted great, it also came out quite quickly which was also good. Now for the bad, if you're going to serve coffee please make sure your make it as asked for, a warm coffee normal means that the person doesn't want it got so they can drink it straight away, the coffee we ordered was so hot that we had to put ice in it to cool it down, the waiter wrote down warm as we made a point of it and she she said no problem. Also you didn't have two items from your already small breakfast menu which was disappointing as we had to them pick something else each time. No avocados, if it's on tort menu you should have plenty of stock? 😞 All in all it was a nice place with an amazing view of the Brisbane river..
M. B.
Nick and the team from Medley has great coffee and awesome food. They have a great atmosphere once you go to the cafe and now with their dinners at night are amazing right on the river. Would highly recommend.
K. N.
Mains arrived long after our sides and when we followed up our mains, maître de said they assumed sides were our entrees & gave us attitude. Duck & venison were way undercooked. 2 out of 4 of us enjoyed meals though. Location lovely.
P. &. S. C.
Great service, all staff were extremely friendly, and the food and coffee delicious.
We were a largish group looking for somewhere to meet after a morning run around Southbank and Kangaroo Point.
From the booking process to the payment of our bills, all the staff were nothing but friendly and helpful.
J. B.
Paella was awesome. All the other things on the menu looked quite good, the bread starter was massive and was plenty for everyone. the group I went with all had a great time and enjoyed there meal. Only downside was we had one wait staff that constantly walked away before we will finish to ordering it happened about 4 times.
j. g.
The setting and food superb. however the music was too loud for across table conversations. Very talented just volume could be lowered especially as we were the front table. Thanks 🙏🏻
G. S.
Excellent service, food and location. We were celebrating the birthday of a family member in her 90's and we could not have been happier with our whole experience.
G. P.
Great venue with views over the river. Attentive friendly, professional service. The trout and the scallops were very delicious.
J. S.
Great location with river views, breakfast very good. Parking a bit difficult on Sunday morning and bill came before we finished eating which made us feel like we had to hurry up and leave, it was v busy though.
M. H.
Simply my favourite restaurant in Brisbane. Love it!
E. L.
A fantastic evening at Medley. We had 3 course set dinner and every dish was fantastic, the service was wonderful and the atmosphere with the live music was great! I will definitely be coming back
F. B.
As a new resident of Brisbane this cafe / restaurant is just perfect. My wife and i took a drive to West end to get breakfast but the place was such a dive and decided to keep driving to Medley. Best decision i can assure you. I do like my coffee and can be a harsh critic on whether coffee is good or bad, but have to say it was very good. The food was excellent as was the customer service and the location is spot on. Right beside the river with an amazingly quaint outlook. Highly recommended.
J. H.
Wonderful service very accommodating for our elderly mum. Lovely family feeling. Thankyou Silvia for showing us your vegetable garden. And you can tell the foods made with love.
s.
Amazing food and spot, out of the way from busy areas.
Defiantly is a hidden gem!!
N.
We had a lovely dinner with beautiful river views. VERY good service :-) Lovely staff as always. I would totally recommend dinner at Medley.
J. P.
Very nice riverside cafe with indoor and outdoor seating and simply fantastic undisturbed views over Brisbane river. Parking is available but very limited, its better to get there by taxi. The location is great, nice upperclass urban
atmosphere. Choice of food was great but last time wasn’t as creative anymore. Prices are high. Not so much suited for families but great for dates with friends or partners. Coffee is good. Service friendly.
H. V.
We had our daughter´s graduation party at Medley´s a couple of weeks ago. Everything went smoothly from the first correspondence to every detail at the party itself. The place is beautiful, the location next to the river perfect, the food was delicious and the staff did everything they could to make us feel happy ! Thank you Nick and your people so much , and hope to see you again one day!
E. T.
We had a beautiful Lunch all meals and desserts were great. Service was friendly and attentive. Location on the river beautiful. Highly recommend

I had a fantastic experience at Medley. I was dining with my wife and two close friends. The food, view, and service were outstanding. This restaurant has probably the best view in Brisbane. I highly recommend this restaurant.
M. B.
Medley is one of our favourite places to eat. It is a perfect location on the river. Whether you go for breakfast lunch or dinner it is beautiful. We found the food delicious and beautifully presented. The coffee and desserts are also really good. I would thoroughly recommend it
S. S.
Beautiful outlook, staff were pleasant and helpful. The extras on the menu are over priced. I got a plain croissant with avo, mushrooms and halloumi and it cost me $24.
J. D.
I had my partner’s birthday there, it was great!
Amazing food and great service with great view!
C. X.
Wonderful well priced food, great friendly service and wonderful views. A true hidden gem of Brisbane. Just wish i had the time to visit more often instead of the odd Sunday morning. Hot tip: order the Vietnamese omelette!
J. D.
Stopped for 2 coffee's and a brownie on our cycle. Great spot, needs a better structure for takeaway options.
But overall good food and great views.
D. D.
Perfect view and setting, Nice staff and fine food but at least you have to wait for food 45 minutes in weekend.
R. G. M.
The food can be improved for the price that you are paying. I used to love this place but i think the food taste always depends on the mood of the kitchen crew. I hope they can be more consistemt.
L. H. V.
I went to Medley for my mums birthday and it was such a special evening. The girl who served us (I think she was Canadian) was soooo sweet. They even gave mum a little bottle of Prosecco and a sparkler in her desert. The food was impeccable, we will definitely be back!
J. A.
Friendly atmosphere with nice view of Brisbane river. Good quality of food. Best of all it’s dog friendly!
M. D.
A most enjoyable lunch with friends to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary. The piccolo of Prosecco with a sparkler was a lovely surprise - thank you.

Awesome spot right on the river. Great food and lovely staff. Friday night live Spanish guitar sets a great vibe. Highly recommended for breakfast, lunch or dinner...

Beautiful lunch, and great staff with good knowledge of the food and wines. Great location overlooking the river and New Farm. Definitely coming back.

My daughter's choose breakfast at Medley cafe to celebrate their 16th & 18th birthday's with friends this year. We were so impressed with our first experience we returned for another equally special morning under the shady tree!
Staff delightful, food delicious, venue stunning. A friendly, buzzing cafe on the river ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ps. Thanks for the candle and sparklers.
J. L.
We had a wonderful celebration at Medley yesterday! We seemed to be sheltered from the wind but greatly enjoyed all the river views. Perfect food and service. We couldn’t have asked for more!
D. C.
We have dined on all continents bar Antarctica. Nothing beats the ambience of this restaurant. On the river with no road and hence no road traffic, al fresco with gentle heat when needed in the winter and gentle breezes off the river in the summer, attentive and professional wait-staff and kitchen-staff, superb cooking, with fresh herbs from maria/ya-ya's herb garden which is alongside the restaurant. To top it off home baked (literally) greek cakes and biscuits to finish or take home.
M. P.
Thank you for a memorable Lunch meal experience fantastic food and excellent staff and service. The view was spectacular, I couldn’t of picked a more perfect location for a small intimate birthday meal Thanks we will be back!!!
H. H.
Fantastic food, coffee and service. Ambience was also fabulous; we could have a conversation without shouting. A lot of other establishments could learn a lot from the managers of this place.
B. K.
Great spot, very friendly staff, decent coffee, will definitely be back again!
s. p.
The best restaurant experience I've had in a long time. Organised a family lunch there and the staff were very helpful, friendly and accomodating. The food and drinks were absolutely dilicious. The venue was in a perfect location right on the water in kangaroo point. I can't wait to visit again soon.
M.
I would like to thank the staff at Medley for helping me plan my engagement to my gf. They went above and beyond in agreeing to keep the flowers I had delivered by Interflora over night in the cool room. When my gf and I got there the flowers were waiting for us at the table I had reserved. Really went above and and beyond :)
The food was delicious an8d staff extremely attentive. The location was brilliant right by the water :)
Definitely be back!
T. C.
Superb location, good food, friendly staff - all at an affordable price. I can thoroughly recommend this venue. Definitely five stars. Anthony Cooper
H. B.
Went here for my dad's birthday dinner. The staff were so friendly and even brought out his dessert with sparklers singing happy birthday to him when we didn't even ask for it. The food was absolutely amazing, I could happily go there to eat a meal anytime.
J. S.
Great relaxing “date night” atmosphere right on the Brisbane river. The open floor plan is amazing and you get a great vibe just seeing the restaurant.
Service: not as bad as the other reviews, but was a bit lacking in details at times (did not get our bill, had to walk up to pay for our dinner, which isn’t much of an issue but something that is expected with higher end restaurants).
Entree: duck pate - the details of the plate didn’t match the information given on the menu... 6/10 entree on taste
Mains: the eye fillet and salmon specials were amazing. No complains, fast to come out and tasted fresh and with fantastic flavours.
Dessert: bit of a miss. Did not enjoy the frangelico affogato (strong flavour, price did not match the dessert offering) and the special was a little bit awkward with the herb semifreddo and fib/carmel sauce.
Overall good experience (particularly the location!) but food was a miss at times for the price paid. Would come again after trying other restaurants. I suggest that photos of the desserts/mains in the menu would help customers choose their foods!

My friend and I yesterday had the most beautiful food, a vegetarian meal and the barramundi, fabulous service, with the wonderful view. Again. Medley is consistently worth visiting as their food and service is always superb. Many thanks.
E. M.
Very tasty breakfast here. You need a reservation on the weekends.
E. F.
Great food but slow service. Very friendly though so just make sure you have lots of time if you go on a weekend. Hot in summer, but depends where you get seated. Had an amazing gourmet pancake breakfast.
T. F.
Lovely meal very friendly staff. Definitely will return. Small menu but excellent food.
C. T.
Delightful spot to have lunch, the food was delicious & great service to the table.
The Greek Almond biscuits are so yummy!
Will certainly make more bookings.
D. M.
Excellent food, with sizeable portions. Great service and beautiful setting. The portion of the breadboard dips wasn't enough and we were charged for more which was a little disappointing but couldn't fault it any other way.
T. L.
Beautiful spot on the river. Menu is great, coffee awesome. Staff could be a little more welcoming and accommodating.
D. H.
Positive: Excellent location, fair price, Nice food
Negative: Kids unfriendly. insufficient high chairs
There are only two high chairs in that restaurant. All are taken. My son has to sit in his pram to have breakfast with us, which is a bad experience.
The table next to us, a little girl has to sit on her mother's leg.
If you have kids, you'd better call them to reserve a high chair before you come.
E. F.
This place is amazing! The food is incredible and the service is astounding! We came here with a really large group and they catered for us with ease and were extremely patient and helpful. Massive thank you to Zenen, she was amazing and we appreciate her help immensely!

Really nice menu, staff were fantastic

Amazing food, good service and a really nice atmosphere. At night there are beautiful festoon lights and a view of the story bridge lights and by day you can enjoy the gardens and river views. The menu is small but everything is delicious.

Had a beautiful lunch/afternoon at Medley. Food, service and setting were all fantastic. Thanks for a wonderful time.
B. B.
The evening was cold. Pity we could not sit in inside rather than under a heater outside.
There were plenty of tables inside but i guess they were already set up for breakfast.
B. M.
Awesome place for breakfast, good food and coffee. The scene is really nice.
I would just say that the waitress probably didn’t want to work on that day and wasn’t really welcoming. Other than that, I would recommend the place.
C.
Lovely waitress and beautiful location. The manager is a bit cold, but works well (gets the tasks done but not friendly nor welcoming). Would probably still go back, despite him.
M. v. R.
Great coffee, great views. Just down the road from Story Bridge. Dog bowl for those walking.

Fantastic Cafe In A Tranquil Spot By The River. EXCELLENT SERICE FOR LARGE GROUP & DELICIOUS FOOD.
We Had A Birthday Breakfast Celebration With A Group Of 20.
We Were Able To Do A Group Preorder From A Planned Set Breakfast Menu Prior To The Booking Date. This Reduce A Wait For Our Orders.
Your Fabulous Team & Excellent Service From The Waitors & Chefs Who Were All So Very Friendly. All My Friends Were All Very Happy With Their Choice For Breaky. Hot Coffee & Freshly Squeezed Juices Promptly Served. We All Had A Wonderful Experience. Thank You For Making My 60th Birthday A Treasured Memory.

Amazing meal and service. We’ll definitely be going back!

Delightful dining experience- food delicious, staff very friendly and helpful, ambiance just right!! A Brisbane treasure!!

I drop by here regularly for coffee, sometimes brekky and occasionally other meals or functions. I always find the management and staff attentive and friendly. The food is always very tasty. On occasions I felt the service was a bit slow but I'm aware that staff turnover has been an issue at times. Overally, Medley has become an institution for Kangaroo Point and I look forward to many years of casual dining in one of Brisbane's most relaxing spots.
H. H. H. C. N.
A Great Spot on the waterfront at Kangaroo Point.
Many Times we've walked by and not tried out their wares. Big mistake.
Today we Order Barramundie for lunch from the short but sweet MEDLEY Menu.
On a scale 1 to 10 it was easily a good 12.
On top of the great food, the staff was cordial and very pleasant in manor and to the eye.
You can't go wrong putting MEDLEY on your To Go list.
E. K.
We love the food and wine! Perfect location to have a quiet evening dinner. Family friendly too.
J. C.
We had an unforgettable birthday lunch at Medley. Everything was superior. From the service and food, to the views, everyone at the table had a positive comment. Thank you Medley.
G. W.
What a lovely place to dine... Great fresh, tasty food and the friendly staff (esp. Mr Fox and the waitresses). Love the vegetable gardens and succulents. A must do 😁
B. S.
In a city overflowing with al fresco dining, the Medley scores near the top in that regard. Tucked away in a quiet spot of Kangaroo Point, it offers beautiful views of the river in one direction and the Story Bridge in the other all from the confines of a shady and comfortable deck. Food was tasty and well-presented. Service was a little slow on one occasion but fine on the other.
S. F.
I really appreciated the thoughtfullness shown by your staff last Thursday in moving a chair with cushion for me rather than the bench seat. Also providing me with a back cushion without my requesting it!
Sincere thanks
Sandra

J. A.
Thanks, Medley. always great food and service.
C. R.
Perched right on the Brisbane river, splendid view while you eat, garden surrounding the balcony provides a wonderful scene. Ordered the "Frango Africana" which ended up being the best chicken I have been served. The plates around the table were all spotless by the end of the meal. Couldn't reccomend dining here more! The staff are wonderful and very accommodating!!
P. M.
Beautiful food in a lovely quiet outdoor setting. Our new favourite restaurant.
N. B.
Situated just by the Brisbane river it’s a great place for lunch. The menu is diverse and offers a great selection for all tastes. I had the lamb salad which was presented well. The lamb was perfectly cooked. Try the passion fruit elixir it’s a highlight.
L. J.
Perfect customer service. Not too ‘ in our face’ but at the same time attentive. Love our local restaurant with a changing menu, interesting flavours and good choice. Love also that they cater well to us coeliacs
C. B.
Had a beautiful birthday lunch at Medley on Sunday. Great location, fabulous food as always and staff were so lovely and very thoughtful in arranging a table inside as storm was forecast...thank you again, Christine
R. R.
One of the best places to go a courting. Mr. Fox was stupendous, as was our server, whose name I've unfortunately forgotten. You can bring dogs there, I even saw one. 7/7 would go again.
C. B.
A great night. Very helpful waitress who knew her menu - we went with her suggested dinner and she was spot on! Lovely view. Couldn't ask for more.
T. S. F. (. H.
Try the Ocean Trout or the Lamb Back. Two incredible meals. Better than the river view and up-lit trees. And the service. But that food!!!
N. F.
Beautiful food! Gorgeous location, the best coffee ever. The waitress Zenen was lovely, very very helpful and friendly despite a very busy morning. A great asset to your business.
A. C.
Love ❤️ the place. Good ambiance, good service.
Even got to request a special drink done on the spot Mr Fox 🍹.
Strawberry flavoured 🍹.
Thank you for a wonderful night.

I had my first visit to Medley on Saturday with friends for my birthday. Lovely location, staff were very friendly and knowledgable about the menu. Food was great! Thank you

Another great breakfast at Medley, such a fabulous setting, tasty menu and friendly staff. Loved the growing succulent displays!
D. B.
Always a truly inspiring experience at Medley. The magnificent location is as nurturing for the soul as the wonderful food and the service welcoming and faultless. My guest was delighted with my choosing Medley. Thank you once again.
K. A.
Lovely cafe by the river - bit of a hidden gem. Everything was great, will be back.
J. P.
Great view from the cafe. The coffee is great, the food was a bit hit and miss. Some of our meals were really tasty and others were a bit bland.
P. P.
Wonderful spot for a morning coffee overlooking the river.
Z. D.
I love going to Medley .. the service is exceptional ..very friendly staff. Mr Fox is always so hospitable. A wonderful location and offering that is brought to life by the wonderful staff. Well done!!

Visited from Sydney. Brunch was decent.
P. C.
I'm a semi regular here! love the view, good service, and nice food! Most recent visit was for lunch with a client yesterday, but also we enjoy the fresh juices and a coffee for breakfast/brunch!
O. E.
The food is outstanding (especially breakfast) and the view is one of the best in Brisbane. The owners are friendly and always come over to say hello. A visit to medley is always a positive experience!
V. I. M.
Perfect Place for Breakfast on a cool morning... Lovely outlook over the Brisbane River, with a tasty and reasonably priced menu. Apparently VERY busy at the weekend, but during the week it is fabulous.
C. M.
Pleasantly located on the river's edge, this popular restaurant offers moderately priced breakfast and lunch, including gluten free options, as well as delicious cakes. Service is fast snd friendly.
g. d.
Expensive coffee but a reasonable view
J. G.
A beautiful spot to spend the morning by the river. Beautiful coffee. Nice and timely service. I thoroughly enjoyed my brunch. Will definitely be coming back.
G. S.
The destination at the end of my daily exercise. Great location looking over the river. Usually some seats in sun, some in shade. Service is friendly, mostly housemade cakes. Caveat: I'm here off-peak and not for meals, so can only presume they're fine.
G. E.
Venue is on the river with a view to the Storey bridge. Wow! Food was awesome. Only let down by the waitress who was lovely but seemed new to the game. Could've sqeezed more drinks out of us.
C. S.
Great location and ambiance. Food and service the best in these COVID times it was just a pleasure to sit in a lovely place overlooking the Brisbane River on a great winters day
P. B.
Great view and lovely service. The food I felt was a bit ambitious for a cafe and consequently they struggled to execute it well. They would probably be better off with more simple cafe type options.
g. 2.
Very slow service on 6/2/2021 for lunch. Tiny serving of butter and oil for our bread basket ordered. Small portion sizes in general for the main meal.
M. B.
The best iced coffees in Brisbane

Great waterfront venue, good food and service.. overall an great dining experience

R. S.
Great food, good price, and there was a super beautiful girl serving there 👉👈 overall, very nice.

Love this place, had an icecream in my morning breaky bowl, maybe it was called the amazon? but was Delish!! def go there again. and the orange juice taste really good compared to other places!
T. H.
Brilliant location with menu to match. Even have a few of their own car parks at the end of Wharf Street. Great place to kick back and relax with a beverage... alcoholic or non-alcoholic.
J. H.
One of my favourite places in Brisbane. Fantastic location and always great food and service.
E. G.
Absolutely amazing views, gorgeous setup and a beautiful variety of food. Very accommodating and considerate of my food intolerances and choices as well. Food came out timely as well considering how busy it was.
C. H.
What a beautiful location and setting. Coffee was lovely, strong and hot. Breakfast was clean and delicious. Will definitely be back!
B. T.
Fantastic food. Service was good but a little slow. Great location. Stylish venue. A bit noisy. Poor parking. Disabled access is quite good.
M. A.
Wonderful atmosphere and great food at Medley Cafe today.I had Marco Polo for breakfast and it was delicious.Great and fast service.Fabulous water and city views.Parking can be a bit tricky.I plan to visit again.
M. M.
Terrific array of food combined with great service. Overlooking the river. Outside seating available with patio heaters for cool evenings. Kid friendly. A definite must.
D. K.
Great views of Brisbane river across to new farm. A little difficult to get waitress' attention to order. She was not at all cheery. Smashed Avo and coffee was delicious.
E. B.
Hard to find and light on parking. You could have a steep walk to and from the car. Pleasant venue for a Sunday lunch, overlooking the river. Meals and service OK. Not too expensive.
J. M.
Fantastic atmosphere, service and food! Will definitely be back soon :)
K. C.
I love the atmosphere here. The food is different and I love the mix of flavours. I tried a couple of the deserts too and the chocolate one was mouth watering. I will eat here again.
E. C.
"Hidden" secret: this is one of those Brisbane places you stumble on by randomly walking one day, and I have come back several times since. Great place to rest on la long stroll along the kangaroo Point board walk, or as a destination itself. The kangaroo cliffs break into spectacular colour during Jacaranda season.
k.
Perfect breakfast and coffee as usual, experience further enhanced by this special location on the river.
S. S.
Had a very nice meal here. Nice spot by the river, can be tricky to find. My advice is to take the driveway rather than the steps that wind back and forth, especially if it's raining
A. C.
We had a beautiful evening here for our wedding with 60 guests. Staff were very attentive and Nick made the event a breeze. Thanks to the whole Medley team.

Great breakfast and friendly staff

Five stars for the best steak I have had in a long time. I appreciate the waiters honesty in recommendation in how rare to dare. Amazing ambiance, lovely venue great staff.
Z. H.
Great drinks, fabulous location and friendly, delightful service made for the perfect before-dinner drinks! Superb and reasonable winelist, but the antipasti was quite disappointing so stick to drinks and you'll be laughing!
A. G.
Beautiful location and very friendly staff. The menu is quite limited but the food is delicious.
M. D.
How can you not like this place. I was tempted of not posting a review just to keep it as a local secret. It's definitely the cafe to go to when you have out of town visitors and you want to show off Brisbane.
B. F.
Very nice restaurant, friendly management, and definitely with one of the best views in Brisbane. Sitting at this place is quite calming during the day.
R. S.
Quick Service . gorgeous spot on the river. I found the food very ordinary

I enjoyed my avocado on toast, my
Partner had the bagel and enjoyed it however he would have liked more spice in the baked eggs. Coffee was great, service was good also

Good food and great location on the river with friendly staff. They are also dog friendly if you have a furry friend.

Nice picturesque spot. They have parking for you, so check map. Good Food. Great coffee. Good to meet family and friends and then enjoy the board walk to local attractions.

Top quality and tasty food. Very helpful staff. The night time view completed a perfect dinner package.

Perfect location but the food lets the restaurant down. I've only had one good meal there (photo provided) and then they changed the menu in July. Also not child-friendly.
