5 Boroughs Rosalie

5 Boroughs Rosalie brings a distinctly New York-inspired approach to Rosalie Village, with a menu built around burgers, bar food and grill dishes. The venue says it uses fresh, local ingredients alongside in-house recipes and slow-cooked meats, drawing on the flavours associated with Manhattan and the wider five boroughs. There are also gluten-free options, including gluten-free fries, according to the group’s website.

The food offering ranges from handcrafted burgers and NY-style sandwiches to wings, ribs and waffle fries. Slow-smoked and barbecue-style dishes are central to the restaurant’s identity, while the bar adds local and international craft beers, cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks. Weekend brunch has its own feature in the form of the Bronx Breakfast, giving the venue a different angle beyond lunch and dinner.

Inside, the setting is described as modern and chic with an industrial edge, paired with upbeat music and live sport shown on a big screen. The well-stocked bar and NYC theme make it a natural option for a casual meal with friends, a drink while watching sport, or a group gathering. Tuesday nights bring Harry’s Trivia, with food and drink specials, prizes and a requirement to book ahead, adding a regular social event to the calendar.

The Rosalie restaurant is part of a Queensland-born story. Todd and Marisa Clayton created the 5 Boroughs concept in 2014, opening the first venue in Stones Corner in 2015 before expanding to Rosalie Village in 2018 and other Brisbane and South East Queensland locations. At 155 Baroona Road, this branch offers a local take on the brand’s New York theme, with a broad menu and bar suited to relaxed catch-ups, sport fans and groups looking for an informal night out.
