Canvas
Believe it or not, Brisbane IS turning into one of those cities where a new bar opens up every weekend. To the point where there are so many new places to haunt, you're finding it hard to get there before all the other hipsters destroy it. Well, you heard it here first and you best get in quick; Canvas, the latest addition to the Logan Road precinct is helping bridge the gap between Brisbane and the rest of the world one provocative cocktail at a time.
Bistrot Bistro
Maybe you still have trouble spelling it, maybe you still get tongue-tied when you talk about it, but when you do manage to get it out, I'll bet that you're saying good things about it.
Unless you've been living under a rock (or hiding inside the nearby Clem 7 steam tower) for the last few months, you'll know that Woolloongabba is the talk of this town for all the right reasons.
Apollo's Korean Bathhouse
Korean Bathhouses have serenity. They're a place to clear the mind, pores and soul. They have the perfect combination of water: cold, hot and high-pressured, plus a big 'ol sauna to sweat it out in. What they don't always mention is they also have more old bratwurst than a German fall out shelter.
The Koreans will tell you, there's nothing more manly than sweating it out in a room full of weathered old-timers.
Reebok Factory Outlet
Before Andre Leon Talley came along and single-handedly crushed my exercise=dowdy belief system, I was happy living in a post-Flashdance miasma of misinformed workout style. Now my fashion radar tingles disturbingly every time I walk past a sports store.
Lured inside by the promise of a bike helmet that would make me aerodynamic and sneakers that would fit just right, my heart said yes.
Clarence Corner Book Shop
If the best things in life are free, cheap reads are a close second. Sure, the price of living might be on the rise, but it's nice to know we can still bedeck our bookshelves and stimulate our brains at a discounted rate. Literally overflowing with pre-loved books from every popular (and obscure) genre nameable, Clarence Corner Book Shop is a treasure trove of second-hand literary delights.
Femme Pilott - circa vintage collectables
Thank God for hoarders. I'm sorry, but you religious throw away types will never amount to anything, well owning anything vintage at least. Sure pre-loved is all the rage these days, but you remember a time when going into an op shop meant holding your nose, rolling your eyes at your mother and worrying if this meant you were poor?
Mel and Kobi were the kind of girls who didn't hold their nose, rather their eyes widened and their jaws dropped at the sight of the $2 fill-a-bag special and they've been going strong ever since.
Woolloongabba Antique Centre
Miss Posh Poodle we found you! If you too noticed Miss Posh Poodle's shopfront on Latrobe Tce had been abandoned, you'll be happy to know we're reporting her found at the soon to be opened Woolloongabba Antique Centre and you have sisters Sarah and Megan to thank. These two mad-for-the-vintage gals are about to have you embarking on an antique experience like no other.
