About Felons Brewing Co

Sprawled directly under the steel spans of the Story Bridge, Felons turns prime riverfront into Brisbane’s default open-air gathering spot. Patrons stake out benches along the veranda or climb to the rooftop—the water movement and illuminated girders setting the scene. The layout runs on self-seating: grab a table, scan the QR code, and bypass the bar queue entirely. Regulars make a point of pairing a cold schooner with wood-fired potato pizza or crisp-skinned ocean trout. Between cavernous floor space absorbing match-day groups and an on-site playground keeping kids busy, the venue hums from midday drinks into late evening.

  • Waterfront Bridge Views: Open-air veranda and rooftop seating positioned directly under the Story Bridge overlooking river traffic.
  • Taproom Pours & Pub Fare: Table QR codes dispatch cold house-brewed stouts, fresh trout, and wood-fired pizzas straight to your seat.
  • Wharf-Scale Space & Playground: Cavernous, high-energy layout accommodating sprawling groups and family outings with a dedicated play area.

  • Fresh House-Brewed Beers & Vibrant Dining

    The brewery pairs a versatile lineup of fresh lagers, IPAs, and full-bodied stouts with elevated pub dishes, cultivating an energetic riverside atmosphere that keeps guests returning.

    The craft beers were fresh and full of flavour, the food was delicious, and the whole venue had such a vibrant and relaxing vibe.

  • Effortless Digital & Counter Ordering

    Guests can bypass congested bar lines by ordering rounds and food straight to their seats using table QR codes, with counter ordering readily available.

    The QR code ordering for food and drinks was easy and added a bit of fun to the experience, although you can also order directly at the counters if you prefer.

  • Family-Friendly Integrated Playground

    Unlike typical adult-only taprooms, the brewery grounds feature a dedicated children's playground right beside dining spaces, making relaxed meals easy for parents.

    One of our favourite things is the playground, which makes it perfect for families.
