Comments of Pig 'N' Whistle West End
J. j.
I really love this venue. Great sports area to dine and drink. There is a nice spacious outdoor eating area. Live music some nights. Perfect for groups wanting knock off drinks or dinner. The food has always been decent. The lamb shanks are really tasty, the pork burger with mac n cheese is worth a try and all the pizzas are really great. The staff and security have always been amazing.

Nice venue with high ceilings, feels very spacious inside. I especially like the restaurant part, although it can get quite cool in there. A bit pricey but great presentation. Basically, it's fancy pub food.
B. Z. (. S.
BBQ Pork rips $39. The fried caramarie $18.
Reasonable price. Nice; clean and comfortable environment. The food is average level.
You will not be disappointed when you dine here, but there are no surprises as well.
R. B.
I had the chicken w/Japanese mayonnaise, Garlic bread with Welsh rarebit & pork ribs.
Chicken was ok!
I love garlic bread!!!
This one not so much, I don't even know what rarebit is but it just wasn't right.
Pork ribs were very bland like they had been cooked too quick or not marinated long enough & didn't absorb the flavour of the sauce which looked like cheap shop bought sauce & I probably ate 1 full rib in total.
Took it home to my wife & she agreed hers are 10 times better.
Service was friendly & accommodating letting our party change tables.
I. P.
What a spectacular place to be at! I went down to the riverside Pig ' N ' Whistle awhile ago and was very disappointed with their service and food presentation. The manager behind the bar at that venue was rude too. But the team in this West End venue are very passionate and do their very best to serve us with compassion. Their cocktails are top-notch and their foods are cooked perfectly. Definitely my go to place at all time. Don't even get me started with the ambience there. It's just so amazing. ✨
E. J.
Food was sensational, in fact the best we have had here since April. Cannot fault the service location atmosphere nor price. Very well worth every cent.
S. S.
Good atmosphere, good beer choice, the wait for the food is half an hour on Thursday lunch time. My beer is getting warm before the meal arrives. Not sure if it is a good idea to come when you are hungry.
A. H.
We had an enjoyable lunch here on a quiet Sunday afternoon just before Christmas. The P&W is an airy, light and spacious place, where you can have a super comfy and satisfying dining experience. Service is fast and efficient. Ordering is done at the bar counter, and within a few minutes, the food is brought to the table. We ordered burgers, chips, dumplings and calamari. It was all first class, and nicely presented to the table on stylish crockery. The calamari was fresh and tasty with a crispy batter. The dumplings were prepared by an expert: they were just the right texture with a nice, soft coating and fresh vegetarian filling inside. They were simply, but beautifully prepared with love, care and attention to detail, and served with a tangy soya sauce and a sprinkling of bay leaves.
The ambience is casual, laid back and relaxed, and with a cool refreshing breeze blowing in, it’s the ideal spot to enjoy a drink and a lunch on a summer Sun afternoon with friends or family. Being so big, tables are well spaced out, making for good acoustics and we were easily able to converse.
There are ample toilets, clearly signposted and they’re clean and well provisioned.
Overall, a very pleasant dining experience.
J. C.
Experienced dining at the Pig n Whistle West End on the first day of the Covid lockdown ease and the restaurant complied with the remaining restrictions. The food was tasty however the medium steak was over cooked (medium well and unevenly cooked). The service was fast and the staff were friendly. The football was on but we couldn’t hear any of it unfortunately (because of the restrictions neither of us wanted to talk to staff and make a fuss). However overall a nice evening at the pub.
L. 5.
Had a fabulous night here with family. The dining room is child friendly and they even gave our little one a colouring pack to play with. The staff and food were excellent, and my vegetarian falafal burger was delicious. There were Christmas parties raging outside with live music but the dining room was well insulated from that. We had a great night.
K. N.
Great Service, Food was delicious and full of flavour, nice atmosphere. Good sized meals.
J. M. (.
Awesome staff member Troy helped heaps with everything, amazing food (Garlic bread is a killa). Was overall an awesome first experience. Definitely recommend it to those who haven't been before. Cheers guys at Pig N Whistle West End.
S. R.
Lamb shank was cooked perfectly. Tasted so good. Clean surroundings, friendly staff
R.
Despite being busy and having a birthday party in half of the dining room, we were able to sit in the quieter half and had a hearty hot dinner served quite quickly. Considering the beer festival across the road this was very well managed.
A. H. J.
Nice location for a meetup with friends. Good food options as well.
A. a. K. T.
Visited during Christmas New Year period. Very disappointing meal. 1 x Ribs. Meat was amazing but only luke warm as was chips. 2nd meal was Guinness Pie and vegetables. Pie was great and hot but again vegetables were only luke warm. For decent dollars felt as though these meals were only heated in the microwave. Told manager at the time and he did give us a free drink each. Dont mind paying money for a nice meal but not when you know its just been heated! 😪
S. T.
I just went for the food on boxing day and OMG I was blown away !!
The Parma was a stand out that sauce was incredible
The snapper Spring Rolls blew my mind !
Highly recommend going just for the food
Very reasonably priced too. Sorry I cant say anything about the alcohol I don't drink
O. A.
Best steak I ever tasted. Worth the money to dine here😋
A. B.
Had the steak and it was sooo freggin good and the Salad was the best I've ever had with a steak! Will definitely be back after lockdown. Highly recommend. Staff were lovely as well :)
P. W. (.
Food was fresh and tasty. I enjoyed my dinner here mainly because I was catching up with Family that I hadn’t seen in ages and two new ones that I was seem by for the first time. Good venue.
T. B.
Best place for beer, food and sports. Plenty of TV'S and good speakers to watch any sporting event.
We had the parma and steak with great selection of drinks
B.
Saw UFC. Reasonable price for pints. $30 gnhocci very unreasonable price for size. Not one pig or whistle in sight, highly disappointed.
A. D.
Came for dinner in a Saturday night and got a table without too much trouble. Drinks were okay and fair price for the location but the food is slightly overpriced for what you get. Had the bangers and mash (good) with Yorkshire pudding (excellent).
Dropping one star mainly for the poorly organised bar service especially ordering food (should have table QR code and app) and the arrogant attitude of the security at the entrance.
H. N.
I take my teenage nephews here often. They seem to enjoy the pub food here- has a lot of options, tasty and decent portions. The food is always consistent and the Westend restaurant has a friendly laid back vibe. Kitchen is always open which is nice.
B. C.
We first experienced the Pig ‘N’ Whistle in New Zealand and it was amazing! So much we wanted to try in Australia (whether they are the same chain or not - I’m not sure). Since this was at lunch time, perhaps the service is a little different compared to night service.
Food: Pulled beef roll ($17) and the Pig ‘N’ Whistle burger - they had very nice flavours. The bread itself could be nicer as the roll was basically falling a part. Decent add on side chips with aioli ($5).
Staff - No one greeted us except when we walked up to the counter to order our food and had to grab our own menus. It was not table service for ordering. We didn’t really see the staff coming around to anyone to see how the food was going. That could improve the experience.
G. E.
Great food and service, plus an unreal range of tap beers and the the menus in general were extensive.
K. F.
We stopped in for breakfast on our way out of town. It’s tough to find breakfast before 9 am on a Saturday. This place did the trick! Overall, the service was quick and staff friendly. We ordered the bacon and egg roll, chorizo Benedict, French toast and avo toast. The winner was the Benedict. The meal was average, but does the trick if you’re in a pinch.
R. a. C. M.
We had such a lovely night out with friends at Pig ‘N’ Whistle last night (19/2/2021). The food and drinks were delicious and the service was great.
A. S.
Nice spot. Good beers on tap and staff are friendly. Food was very good also.
C. R. (.
Good choice for drinks and food around South Brisbane area for relax.. Many of friendly people and feel safe. You won't be disappointed. Staff very friendly and helpful.
N. E.
Great atmosphere, very friendly staff. Thank you Troy for fantastic bar service and yummy cocktails🍹
L. D. G.
When the Tide is out on your sober drivers soda water... had to ask for lime.. ordered shots, and even these were short of the rim. Pity. We would have spent more..
Y. Z.
It’s a really nice atmosphere for family we went there for a desert and it was good We liked it and the coffee is good too.
Yes I’ll visit it again for sure to try the food
R. A.
Had a nice lunch, and a cold beer. Good selection, reasonably price pints, especially if you hit happy hour. Food can be a bit of a wait on Sunday. Friendly staff.
S.
Large meals! Great meal! Great service!
Great atmosphere too!
But pricey though... $40 for steak and chips and an oj
D. S.
Overpriced much...🙄
Postive side pretty place to sit n enjoy a glass of Wine...😁🥂
W. L.
Nice big space for group meals. We had over 30 people - Food was liked by some and disliked by others. Expensive was the consensus. My Lamb Salad was average but large enough for me.
D. S.
Food was absolutely delicious cooked perfect. Great service and friendly helpful staff
J. L.
Amazing Dinner function that has been organised by Liam and Ashmit. Food and drink absolutely amazing. Will be back.
G. W.
Great place, plenty of tables and atmosphere. The service was excellent and friendly. Will ce back here again.
W. K.
Food is always abundant and delicious. Service is quick friendly and professional. For breakfast i went 2 days in a row and it was worth it. *also smoking tables are still available outside the retaurant/bar, a rarity in Brisbane*
R. M.
Great experience!! The staff were absolutely amazing. It was great to sit and watch the various groups that had reserved space for special celebrations. All were enjoying the surroundings and the ambience that is apparent from the moment you step in the door. An excellent meeting place for catching up with my visiting family members from Sydney. Thoroughly enjoyed the time spent in the Pig n Whistle.
B. K.
Few minutes walking distance to QPAC...ideal spot to have a nice meal. Efficient service, live music on Saturday nite while we were there
A. D.
Quite spacious. Value for money food. Enjoying watching Big Bash here while having beer.
K. W.
Bar restaurant that was 3/4 full, and extremely long wait time of 50 mins for food on Wednesday night. Wait time was a little too long although we were told upfront when we ordered, which is appreciated. Nice ambience.
Food quality is very average; spinach, vegetables and potatoes seemed to be cooked mainly in salt.
Huge portions where could 2 persons shared 400g beef rump set, but there was better quality beef to be found.
Their desert took much faster at around 25 mins and was probably the best dish.
M. D.
Service was speedy, especially for a Friday lunch time! I ordered the burger and our table had a lot of the other dishes covered, too. Food was unanimously flavourful and well enjoyed. Plenty of clean dishes all around!
They had tap beer specials, which is rare on a Friday in the city.
Can't comment on the price of the food as it was a paid-for lunch so I "paid" no attention.
Looking forward to going back since the bar keep mentioned they show plenty of sports, including the UFC. Next time I'm looking for a group of us to catch up after work I'll be looking in this direction.
A. S.
Went to a large Private Group Function there and my specific dietary requirements which were requested by the organizer were excellently catered for 🥦🍅 👍 🙂
Z. T.
Had a nice social lunch, relaxing in the sun. Our light lunch, and a glass of wine, was very enjoyable.
A. O.
Was pretty gutted to get a fish finger size portion for the fish and chips, however it was great tasting. For 30 Bucks I expect more I went home hungry!!!
B. L.
10 minutes lines for drinks. Great ambience. Generally a cool place to enjoy time with friends.
M. H.
Great for drinks as the atmosphere is tasteful and they have tones of beers on tap. However, the food was average and extremely over priced. We ordered a pizza that had barely any toppings, and the side salad was 98% iceberg lettuce. Won't be ordering food here again.
C. E.
Great food and Staff. Air con is a bonus
D. M.
Have been coming here every year after busy supanova days . great to relax and chill with a beer
P. C.
When we arrived we had to provide proof of covid registration which was great.
Our daughter was given a colouring in competition but told there where no pencils which frustrated her all night.
When we went to order the young man didn't seem to know the menu, what the specials were or what Shiraz wine was. Thankfully a more experienced employee took over and sorted us out.
Service was exceptionally quick! Food was great!
I'd recommend this place, but keep in mind its not kid friendly
K.
Food looked and tasted good (according to my friends because I already ate before getting there). Atmosphere was nice. When our group got there, they were playing some sports thing on TV. You could tell our group were big sports fans because one of us called it soccer. It was not soccer, it was rugby. Anyway, we had a good time.
K.
Overpriced. Extremely loud and echoey area. Couldn't hear the person next to me.
It's a pub, not a club. Tone it down with the audio.
R. P.
Absolutely amazing venue, the best PignWhistle. I went there to watch a UFC pay per view, incredible atmosphere.
The floor staffs were amazing.
The food was splendid. Beautiful burger. Thanks to the chefs. I think they deserve more credit than they usually get. Five out of five.
J. N.
good service, reasonably priced tasty food.
T. W.
Excellent service and food, although the tiny scoop of icecream accompanying the dessert was a joke at the price ($14 00). The main meals were cooked properly and my Sirloin steak was delivered rare as asked.
L. T.
Nice place but noisy and live music that night sucked... Everyone has different music likes tho.
M.
I cannot recommend this place enough. We have recommended a great cocktail which they have since put on the menu as a permanent fixture. We constantly receive excellent service from all staff including the amazing Tayla! An excellent service with excellent staff base. Definitely keeps us coming back.
T. B.
Great food, mostly decent service (but hit and miss) live music some nights. Can get very noisy.. even in the back restaurant part. But probably just large group bookings+ music. Good for big groups
S. R.
Great quality and tasty food
Live music is excellent
Atmosphere is exemplary
Quality bouncers
R. Q.
Wide variety of food, excellent tasting, well worth the price. Party of 7 everyone impressed. Staff helpful and friendly. Easy access by public transport.
D. J.
Loved it. Great atmosphere. Good service and enjoyable food
L. S.
Went there on a Friday night and it was empty. Staff are really nice and drinks are on the more expensive side. Good place to meet and chat with friends. Couldn't try the food as the kitchen was closed.
C. E.
nice service, good beer and tasty food, bit the bangers and mash was a little pricy at $28
H. K.
Nice restaurant with relaxing atmosphere and nice food. The lunch rump was perfectly cooked.
S. M.
They’re a bit short staffed so you might have to wait for a meal.
But the food was good. The beer good. The staff very friendly.
It’s a public holiday so management are saving on wages.
But the staff are doing their best!
J. H.
3 1/2 ⭐
The Good:
Steak and Guinness Pie was wicked!
Guinness is always good
Service was good
Live music that night was actually excellent!
Bad:
The Chicken Schnitzel was rubbery and actually hard to cut
And whilst it's only one element in the negative it's quiet a big one, especially for the owner of that meal. I'm guessing their experience would be more 1.5 not 3.5.
L. R.
Very nice place. Clean. Food looks very good - not eating myself. Lost one star as management could maybe look at more staff or a more efficient way to serve its customers. Line got a little long for being a quarter full. Hard working staff but not enough to keep that line down.
D. V.
Food tastes good and fresh.
D. M.
Look, if you want a place to drink and watch some sport this is a decent choice. The location is convenient for Southbank, they have indoor and outdoor seating choices and the decor is fresh and comfortable. Just don't order food, really ordinary freezer to frier options that are set at a pretty high price point. There are lots of options around that area where the food is excellent for a similar price point...
K. R.
Food was very good. Cocktails interesting especially the Cucumber Smash. Staff friendly. However, quite noisy indoors with music too loud, so sat outside. Also pricey hence only 3 stars. If prices were about 10% less and music turned down a notch or two I would have rated 4 stars. However, it was lovely to get out... First time to the city or Southbank since start of Covid. So all in all, still a lovely evening.
K. M.
Great food. Cold beer. Nuff said.
A. F.
Food was absolutely stunning would highly recommend this restaurant to everyone who visits Brisbane. My meal was like absolute amazing.
m. p.
Beautiful place. Good selection of beers on taps, some special bottles and nice menu (well done prepared).
There's potential to five stars but first need provide a better training to Crew. I think that the manager team miss a great opportunity to expand and keep new costumers, allowing the staff team to be quite rude.
Client decision: choose another place to enjoy an happy hour.
Best regards.
B. A.
Great atmosphere, selection of beer and UK inspired menu.
Shows most sports including UFC.
B. C.
Had our staff Xmas Party there 05/12/2020 entrees were ok, chicken wings were suppose to hot & spicy, not spicy at all, wings were cold.
Wagu burgers, meat was very dry,
Eye fillets were suppose to be Med well, one was rare the other was Med Rare, very disappointed with the meals, get better meals from the local pubs. Staff member of Active Air Spares, not Active Air Space
A. B.
How pathetic!!!
Had two beef burger meals in the branch on the South Bank tonight.
Was refused mustard to go with our meals unless we paid extra.
In my 84 years of eating in restaurants,cafe's and bars all over the world I have never been asked to pay for a small dollop of mustard. How sad can you get?????
ef hamburger
meals in the branch on South Bank tonight
C. L.
Great atmosphere and food was delicious. Good old English pub grub. I wasn't that hungry so had the meatballs in a tomato sauce with pita bread, yummy. My friend had the lamb shanks...delicious, you get 2 with lots of mash and sauce so order this if you have a big appetite. All the other dishes were good too.
R. K.
Great place to have a pint, $12 is a little steep though, however they do show the EPL.
s. k.
It was absolutely amazing! Friendly and fast service, delicious food, great drinks. Great location and extremely amazing atmosphere. Staff are really friendly and cooperative. Very clean and well maintained. I will surely visit again😊
D. C.
Always a good experience. Great food
K. H.
It was absolutely amazing! Friendly and fast service, delicious food, great drinks. Great location and very instagramable. Shared the big breakfast between 2 and it was enough for both easily. Very clean and well maintained. I recommend coming!
A. D.
Good pub but no WiFi r U kidding !!!!
B. S.
For a pub meal this place packs a punch. Food is great, fresh and good variety. Service is friendly and welcoming. Good selection of ice cold beers.
Please don’t miss out everyone .
A. S.
Great venue, great location, food was excellent except for the Peking duck Bao...don’t order that!
They did forget the nuggets and chips for my nephew and he was the hungriest at the table, but they gave him a free juice as an apology and he eventually got his nuggets and loved them. I will definitely return and would highly recommend.
A. K.
Your serving staff are AMAZING. We were served by the loveliest friendliest waitress tonight. She took time to talk to us, chatted to our youngest child and gave some good info on local sites. She answered questions we had on the local market by SouthBank. Just totally awesome. The meal was also top notch. Would definitely recommend. Be proud of your staff. Thankyou for a super evening 🧡😀
L. W.
Great breakfast, very tasty and near convention center but not crowded at all.
D.
Expensive food. Staff can be rude depends on your luck. Chicken wing is good tho. We also used to come after work from time to time. Food can be pricy but good central place for after work to go place.
A. P.
Good food and best service. Enjoyed our dinner with lovely live music. Highly recommended.
A. D.
Beers are fairly priced and the location is open and comfortable.
Menu is somewhat limited for those trying to eat health-consciously (not many low carb options in our case), but the meals we received were tasty and arrived promptly.
Another bonus is several big televisions with whatever sport is currently being played, so that combined with big tables makes this a pretty good venue to watch sports with mates over a beverage.
J. T. W.
Enjoyable setting, friendly staff, excellent food, and watch different sports on the different screens available..
J. M.
Liked the restaurant and loved the food. There is a chain of these restaurants around Brisbane. Staff was friendly and fast. Atmosphere was metropolitan. Had a bar nearby and looks like a great place to bring a large group. Not far from QPAC so great for after the shows.
B.
Here is very suitable place for watching sports.
I. A.
Lovely staff members. Helped me to organise a surprise birthday party. Food is good and its a good environment. 4 star because they take ages to bring food to your table and sometimes they make mistake or then completely forget about your order!!!
I would still go there
J. D.
It's had to fault any Pig 'N' Whistle throughout Australia.
The service is impeccable, the menu is divine, the drink selection is vast, and there is a reason it is always busy.
It is such a well established venue, which provides a setting for any function.
I am sitting here scratching my head trying to think of the fault of this place and I am not coming up with any.
I would definitely recommend you go here for dinner and try there menu. I enjoyed the HANDMADE GNOCCHI on my last visit.
Enjoy you meal with a glass of wine, or pint of cider.
J. N.
Had our work Christmas party here.
Great place.
Good drinks.
Good food, I had lamb shank.
Good atmosphere.
s. u. b. b. y.
Great prices and the food is excellent. Really good portion sizes. The staff were really friendly helpful.
J. G.
Great spot, great food & service.
A. P.
Nice quality steak, maybe a little under the advertised weight, a little overpriced at $39, nice chips, average salad
J. M.
- Bartenders can only serve one beer at a time
- Prioritise cleaning glasses over paying customers who provide glasses to clean
- Regardless of amount, surcharge to pay by card. Large corporation ‘can’t’ afford fees yet small businesses can
- Questionable end focus/don’t agree with the business plan to the point unsure why I’m here
I. S.
Nice food and good range of food served by friendly staff.
K. R.
The food was sooo delicious- we are thoroughly impressed! We had the chicken tikka masala curry, slow braised steak & Guinness pie, and the fish of the day. It was divine- really good flavours. For dessert we had the chocolate pudding and peaches & cream and it was equally as mouth watering!
They also let us bring our little Maltese and we sat outside where there are nice heaters.
c. r.
They advertise best steak in town but mine was not that good. I think what also spoiled it was the sweet potatoe fries that was fried too long and the sugars in/on the fries where caramelized too much and tasted bitter, almost burned but not quite! Beer was good and the service great.
E.
Very nice meal options available, good selection of cocktails as well. Good atmosphere
M. J.
Food was good as well as the service.
R. F.
Always good beer. Service could have been a little warmer. Extremely expensive for a pub though
C. F.
The staff were really nice and the atmosphere was good, lots of people, but service was good. The only criticism is the food. Chicken wrap for $19 wasn't nice at all. Sweet potatoe chips were really good.
J.
Gorgeous bar, great staff, food was fantastic though quite pricey ($38 for a "lite meal" ribs, $19 for four spring rolls etc). Great spot to watch the footy or a fight on their multiple big screens.
P. M.
Food quality great and large selection of drinks inc tap beer.
P. K.
Lots of places to stand and have a drink. Busy on Friday but there is always enough room. The choice of beers is very good.
N. J.
Staff were very friendly and helpful good atmosphere. The food was a little disappointing. Would go again
T. T.
💥Highly recommend👍Beautifully presented food for 8 of us having dinner.
😇Chef met our unreasonable request to have 6 desserts turned out in 12 mins, instead of the 30 mins we were advised.
Well done & thank you, Chef & Staff🙏🙏🙏Will be back again.
E. T.
Good food, reasonable prices but can be a long wait for food, even when seemingly quiet.
G.
Nice cosy bar. Inside and outdoors. Relaxed vibe. Good selection of beers and other alcohol. Standard city prices. Recommend for a couple
s. d.
Great service and the food was excellent
R. A.
The place is brilliant. But the food menu is average and expensive. Ordered the Prawn Spaghetti for $38. Very little serving for a mains plate. Not much sauce, prawns a bit overcooked and the mussels were tiny! It's good for drinks but don't think worth for eating out.
R. C.
Asked barman if dining was still available. He started to say NO but the waitress cut him off and told us we were most welcomed to dine in.
We had the 'Light Meals' options and ordered the steak bits and seasoned calamari and prawns. All cooked to perfection and well presented.
Ivana was the perfect Hostess.
Giving 4 stars due to the rude attitude of your barman.
n.
I came here with my family just last Tuesday! No complaints at all. What I really like is how they cater to a really diverse range of lifestyles. You can get the pork if you're a normal human or the whistle if you're a vegan
G. C.
Good food prompt service well done
A. G.
Excellent place to have a drink or something to eat. Did not have to queue for a drink.
S.
Great night out. Food was great and life entertainment was good too, though a bit too loud.
Drinks were quick and easy to get but it took 1hr for the meals to arrive. Place was packed but with spare tables.
Not particularly inviting for young families.
.. ..
Standard fare from the Pig but a great open space with plenty of options for groups. Decent drinks, good, basic foods. Expect to pay just as much as any other city bar for a small bowl of chips but they are good.
D. J.
Omgosh the food was amazing very clean facilities all round enjoyable. Staff were fantastic.
D. F.
Great atmosphere, service was friendly, the meal was delicious & didn't take very long to serve 😀
R. B.
First time. Enjoyed my meal
R. S.
Doesn't really offer anything substantive, like, ya, they got OK beer on tap, but there is really nothing here that makes you want to come back. The lighting is annoyingly bland, there is live music that is OK-good, but usually too loud, the staff are nice, but not mindblowing or memorable, the food is OK but not great. The best thing that I can remember is there seemed to be some pretty interesting dancing going on on St. Patricks day a year ago or so. Also, pretty pricy for what you get. Overall, really average experience.

Loved the food, however the atmosphere wasn't the best, as I suppose it was due to the fact it was a Monday night. Went back for a drink after the show because they close at midnight. I wanted an Expresso Martini, but disappointed as their coffee machine wasn't working. It was dead at 10.30pm.
M. T.
Awesome food, great place. However, The entertainment was very ordinary, the bloke playing guitar and singing never took a break, just joined one song into the next one. It ended up being so annoying and the volume was way too loud, you had to yell to talk to each other!
A. K.
Great food, atmosphere and service. Never disappointed at a Pig n Whistle venue
S. F.
"'proper" British pub.
Food is great, but a little bit expensive. Although when you consider its location, you get free parking when the staff validate your ticket.
Plus they do a trivia on a Wednesday night, and some great live music as well.
T. A.
Great location, good friendly service, beers were nice and cold, food was tasty and we didn’t need to wait too long for food table delivery. We’d visit again.
C. H.
I haven't actually had a chance to have the food here. Every time we go the bar is so busy and the staff aren't welcoming. The dining area is "unable to be booked" but also always "booked out". It's also always empty
A. W.
Perfect place to grab a few beers, catch the sport and have catch-ups with friends. Big space, food is great portion and dogs are allowed in the outside area 🙌
C. L.
Was there Friday night in a group of 4. Small serves for a large price. Seafood chowder had nice flavours but was served barely luke warm. Other meals also only just passable.
S. P.
It was awesome his name was Troy he was serving DEVINE drinks and nice service. Thanks Troy :-> We will come back soon for u❤
W. N.
Great food and selection of drinks. Staff are always friendly and keep the tables clean and tidy. Lovely location for a stopover.
G. S.
Went here for some drinks after GABS and although the range of beers was obviously a lot less it was still an okay place to be for a beer
W. L.
Bustling bar in the middle of the city
M. B.
Awesome place for a quiet one, an amazing place for a loud one. Not your typical closed in English pub feel, open floor plan ideal for large groups.
R. C.
Nice atmosphere there
P. A.
Classic and nice

Lovely staff members. Helped me to organise a surprise birthday party. Food is good and its a good environment. 4 star because they take ages to bring food to your table and sometimes they make mistake or then completely forget about your …
N. F.
Inner city pub with all the amenities - food a little on the expensive side but in line with cbd prices. Good and central location near all of the South Brisbane attractions and transport facilities. Great place to meet for events relating to the Convention Centre
R. “. c. p. f. M.
Staff were efficient and friendly enough. Beer was cold and meals tasty.
H. N.
Food was surprisingly great. Pre-booked a table for 15. Food came out quickly and tasted great. The dining room has a quieter setting and still appropriate for a Family
D. P.
Pint of Bulmers $10.90. Probably normal price I wouldn't know since I rarely drink in pubs since it became so expensive a decade ago. Good service otherwise.
s. t.
Had lunch with my friends. Wonderful meal that was perfectly served. Service was awesome. All time favourite place.
A. F.
The atmosphere is always lively and the staff are always friendly, there can be a bit of a wait for food when it's busy though.
As an English person living in Brisbane, I really don't buy in to the whole 'British pub' thing, they have a Middlesbrough Parmo on the menu for example 1. Nobody really eats parmagina in the UK, 2. Nobody would call it a parmo.
And serving a pie without gravy... sacrilegious.
J. K.
Great atmosphere and service. The quality of the food is fantastic. My partner and I shared the beef cheek and goat curry both went beyond your average pub meal.
S. A.
I was plesantly suprised by the fine dining look of the resturant and the menu. The service was a little slow considering there was barely any patrons and the mains could have been a litte quicker but the entrees were quick. The food was pretty good, perhaps slightly over priced
S. W.
Great night, great service!!
L. F. W.
Great sized venue. Plenty of seating and good options for indoor or outdoor drinking/dining. Reasonable prices and good range of options for drinking. I didn't dine here so can't comment on the menu.
D. B.
Large, airy pub but not much personality. Pretty good range of beers and wines, menu has quite a good choice. Indoor and outdoor seating and a great location.
R. D.
Went out with family for drinks. The place has great atmosphere and nice entree. Chicken Goyaz were mouth watery.
Loved the ambiance to start our evening.
M. B.
Awesome place for a quiet one, an amazing place for a loud one. Not your typical closed in English pub feel, open floor plan ideal for large groups.

Great food, clean spacious, brilliant TV screens and most of all friendly staff ( especially the guy who took my food order) . Was down watching a show, glad we found this place, Ang from Belfast. ...
J. A.
55 minutes wait - when bearly half full - is a bit steep. When dinner finally arrived - after us having to ask twice - we were not even given an apology!!!! My lamb chop meal was just ok - not particularly hot and not worth $36. Partner said his Cumberland Sausages were nice.
A. L.
Took ages to get served
Brought out meal to everyone at my table at random times
We didn't eat together
Disappointing
C. M.
Great atmosphere and food, live music was there while we were dining and wait times were great. Good selection of food and beverages and most of the wait staff were very polite.
L. W.
Staff fantastic, surroundings bright and clean. Food very good. I gave 3 stars as why serve food on a wooden chopping boards. Please go back to proper plates.
Y. (.
Nice venue, big screens for sports etc. Busy late afternoon crowd but sold out of my drink of choice which seemed strange no back up stock for such a large busy venue.
L. B.
Lively in the middle hours, food is tasty if a tad on the higher side for pub fare. Recommended.
J. P.
Didn't really do it for me.
We arrived a bit late and the place was filled with uncleaned tables.
Food was only OK.
Not my scene so don't give this review too much weight.
D. B.
Lovely atmosphere and venue. Huge meals and not a bad price. Kids meals were great also!

Nice..but just another pub...bit pricey
C. A.
Good quality "pub" food. Good service. Large servings. Pricing is above pub fare but below the cost of a good restaurant.
D. K.
Food good and service good. Enjoyed my time there.
N. D.
I've really enjoyed the food here in the past - particularly the arancini balls but tonight was a disappointment. A $14 wrap with soggy lettuce and not much else, was not worth the calories.
A. R.
Big bar well located. Good food and reasonably priced for Brissie. Live acoustic music often playing. Good for groups.
N. J.
Always come through here during a convention to get three hours free parking (with a few purchases). Such a large range of beers and wine on tap!
W. S.
Always had a good beer and meal at this location.
I. T.
Great food and atmosphere
M. C.
Good food here. Big portions. Early in the day on a Monday so pretty empty so no hassles with service.
M. _.
Good food, pizzas look and taste great. Goat curry is a bit chewy, wouldn't recommend it. Atmosphere is really nice.
T. E.
There was hardly anyone there and went to order some food before a show at the Convention Centre and we were told the wait was 35 minutes. Plenty of places in Fish Lane that will provide better service than here
M. G.
Dunno if this is standard QLD sort of pub, but I was into it. Great venue. Wide open spaces and stuff. Staff were a bit disinterested though.
B. M.
Sausages were very nice. Nachos crunchy and tasty. Great pub vibe!
K. W.
Love this bar, we visit this establishment every time we're in Brisbane. Drinks are cold, food is always enjoyable. Love the atmosphere
L. T.
Our go to place for a quick bite before the basketball. Great food. Good service. Love the live music too.
K. H.
Very poor service, waitress only came near us when we waved her down. 60hour steak definitely not 500g . Drinks too expensive.
A. V.
The environment is appealing and the location is great, but I find the food overpriced for its quality and the bar tending isn't up to the standard of the drinks they stock and display.
G. T.
Great atmosphere, professional service
k. d.
Nachos were tasty with plenty of chilli beef and jalapenos. Good service with a friendly vibe

Group of us met to celebrate a birthday. The service was great! The food was phenomenal! It was a nice evening.

As you'd expect from Pig N Whistle. Good food. Probably a bit on the expensive franchise side of costs to make their money. But food is good. Beer is good.
j. s.
Food good service ok but it took 40 minutes for our orders to get to us. I will call again it's a great location.
I. L.
Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Wine, beer and Guinness on tap. Outdoor heaters make it very comfortable to eat/drink outdoors as we go into winter.

A nice atmosphere and a great drop of Cider.

Not very accessible for prams or wheelchairs with chairs so close together. No alcohol free menu. Food was nice.

Great food and service. If you love wine, they have a variety to choose from.

Great place to relax after spending the day in the exhibition centre. Friendly staff and s great wide range of drinks on offer.

Some of the best Chinese / Vietnamese food in Brisbane. However, the ugly entrance and obvious dated interior left me wanting more for five stars
W. K.
Service is 100% perfect , meals are priced to suit , great staff , great place for a feed

Came here on a weeknight and enjoyed good quality food. Consistent with other pig ‘n’ whistles around Brisbane.

Decent enough place, bright and clean. Expensive food for what it is, and the beer choices are not exciting.

Nice place to have a drink the food is a little on the over priced side, could do with some lunch time deals on something to pull a crowd in.
