Chermside Tavern

Chermside Tavern is a straightforward local pub option in Chermside, positioned at the northern end of Westfield Shopping Centre along Kittyhawk Drive. It caters to a range of visits, whether you are after a quiet meal, a coffee catch-up with friends, an after-work drink or somewhere to meet before or after shopping. The venue also promotes friendly, attentive service and a selection of local and imported beers, alongside wine and other drinks.

The Bistro is the main dining draw, with chefs taking cues from local suppliers and producers. Its menu covers familiar pub territory, including share plates, pizzas, steaks and other classic dishes. Families are specifically catered for with a kids menu, while a seniors menu is also available. A breakfast menu and regular offers and specials add further choice, although the website does not provide details about the current dishes or deals.

For a more casual drinks-and-sport visit, the Sports Bar offers beer, cider, wine and spirits, as well as a separate bar menu. It is set up for catching a game with mates or taking a break from a Westfield visit, and the venue has full TAB facilities. The website’s description suggests a social, relaxed space rather than a formal dining room, with options for both a meal and a drink.

Chermside Tavern also has facilities for larger gatherings, including farewell drinks, birthdays and other special occasions. Functions can be arranged across spacious outdoor alfresco areas or in a more private lounge, with function menus and catering that the chefs can adapt to dietary requirements. That makes the venue suitable for family meals, casual catch-ups and group celebrations, while the quieter dining option and coffee service provide a less occasion-focused reason to drop in. Google reviews give the tavern a 4.1 rating from 765 reviews.
