Sky Deck

Sky Deck brings together elevated views, dining and drinks 100 metres above Brisbane’s CBD. In South Bank, it is designed as a day-to-night destination, with an expansive viewing deck looking across the city and towards Moreton Bay. The rooftop setting makes the outlook a central part of the visit, whether you arrive for a morning coffee, a relaxed meal, sunset drinks or an evening celebration.

The venue is home to three distinct spaces. Aloria is the more refined dining option, pairing European influence with an Australian character. Its setting includes an open kitchen and a cellar, with the experience focused on considered service, shared occasions and the atmosphere created by the cooking. It suits a special meal or an intimate dinner, although the source does not provide a current menu or pricing.

For something more relaxed, Babblers offers casual all-day dining in a warm, welcoming setting. Its food centres on familiar favourites and handmade flatbreads finished with seasonal toppings, alongside local craft beer, wine and coffee. It is the most easy-going choice within Sky Deck and should appeal to visitors looking for a less formal meal during a day exploring Brisbane, as well as groups wanting a comfortable place to gather.

Cicada Blu takes over as the livelier day-to-night venue, with drinks built around botanical flavours and a selection of local and international beers, ciders and wines. As evening arrives, the space shifts towards a more energetic mood, with music and a riverside-city backdrop. That makes it a natural fit for sunset catch-ups, drinks with friends and celebrations rather than a quiet, formal dinner.

Sky Deck also caters for large functions, with capacity for up to 1,000 guests and views intended to be part of the event setting. The combination of three venues gives visitors several ways to use the space, from a casual daytime stop to a dressed-up occasion. As a rooftop venue, weather can affect operations, so checking conditions and venue updates before visiting is sensible. The website also notes that access and venue arrangements can vary on Christmas Day.
