Why it's worth checking out
Medley | Kangaroo Point is a riverside restaurant on the edge of the Brisbane River, close to Howard Smith Wharves and the CBD. Its setting on the grounds of Yungaba gives the venue a strong sense of place: Yungaba was built in 1887 and served for many years as an immigration centre. Today, the space is presented as a relaxed spot for breakfast, brunch, lunch, drinks and events, with the river forming a natural part of the experience.
The kitchen takes a world-inspired approach, combining familiar and contemporary dishes influenced by flavours from across the globe. The menu focuses on fresh local ingredients, dishes cooked to order, and a preference for organic and free-range produce without preservatives. Breakfast includes options such as the Chilli Crab Omelette, Medley Green Bowl, Shakshuka and Medley Scotch Eggs, while lunch moves from Chicken Yiros and Spicy Prawns to Beef Bourguignon, Butter Chicken and Silken Fish. Menus change with the seasons and availability, so the selection may vary.
Drinks are a significant part of the offering, whether you are starting the day with coffee or settling in for a later riverside catch-up. The drinks list covers cocktails including the Aperol Spritz, Negroni, Mojito and several signature creations, alongside beers, cider, wines, spirits, mocktails, juices, iced drinks and loose-leaf teas. That range makes Medley suitable for a casual meal, a long lunch or a drink with friends as the day winds down.
The venue also caters to different group sizes and occasions. A kids menu is available, and the website outlines spaces for smaller and larger riverside events, including sit-down breakfasts or brunches, lunches, dinners and cocktail parties. Catering is offered for corporate events, birthdays, family gatherings and other celebrations, with the same global-flavour focus. For Kangaroo Point locals and visitors to Brisbane, Medley is a practical choice when the appeal is a flexible menu, an easygoing riverfront setting and room to gather.
