The Hills of Rivermakers

The Hills of Rivermakers is a multi-venue destination in Hamilton, Brisbane, built around eating, drinking and spending time outdoors. Its offering spans several distinct places, making it suited to a casual meal, a coffee stop, a family outing or a longer weekend visit rather than a single-purpose dining experience. The venue describes itself as a community hub with a focus on community and sustainability, and it welcomes dogs.

Food and drink options include wood-fired pizzas from Pizzeria Lab, pub-style meals at The Roadhouse & Brewery, locally made wines and shared platters at the Urban Winery, and seafood including oysters, prawns, fish and chips and calamari. The Bakery & Café serves breakfast and lunch, while The Hills Roastery focuses on hand-roasted coffee beans. For something lighter or sweeter, there is an Açaí Bar with fruit and granola bowls, along with a Gelato Factory making house-made artisan gelato.

The setting combines indoor and open-air spaces, with the Urban Winery offering lounge seating as well as outdoor tables. Families can make use of the indoor kids’ playground and outdoor playground, while adults have options ranging from relaxed café dining to brewery and winery visits. The combination of food, play areas and room to linger makes it particularly practical for families and mixed-age groups, while the café, winery and roastery also give solo visitors and couples reasons to visit.

The venue also has dedicated event areas for occasions including birthdays, family gatherings, corporate functions and weddings. Its spaces range from more intimate indoor and outdoor areas to larger lawns and halls, according to the website. With multiple food and drink venues on site, The Hills of Rivermakers works best for visitors who want variety and flexibility in one Brisbane destination.
