The heart of Kangaroo Point

If you haven’t been to The Story Bridge Hotel, have you truly experienced Brisbane? This iconic venue has been at the heart of our city’s story since 1888, when renowned architect Richard Gailey brought it to life. Nestled beneath the majestic Story Bridge, this isn’t just a pub – it’s a living piece of Brisbane’s history.

Owned by the Deery family since 1967, The Story Bridge Hotel has transformed over the decades, blending tradition with modern charm. While the building has seen its share of makeovers to become the stunning venue we know today, one thing has remained constant: its unmistakable community spirit. Here, everyone is made to feel like a local, whether it’s your first visit or your hundredth.

More than just a venue, we’re a gathering place for friends, families, and strangers who become mates. Our diverse spaces – vibrant bars, cozy restaurants, and breezy outdoor dining areas – set the stage for unforgettable moments. From the laughter of a casual lunch to the clink of glasses over a dinner celebrating life’s milestones, The Story Bridge Hotel is where Brisbane comes together.

And then there’s the food. Our menus are a tribute to the flavours that make this country special, with a contemporary twist. From traditional Aussie classics to European-inspired creations, every dish is crafted with fresh, seasonal ingredients – many of them sourced right here in Queensland.

The Story Bridge Hotel isn’t just a destination; it’s a tradition, a memory-maker, and a symbol of the vibrant city we call home. Come as you are, and let us show you why this is more than a venue – it’s Brisbane’s beating heart.
