35 Bottomless Brunches To Hit In Brisbane

By Tayla Bruce

Brunch is the best. It’s one of those portmanteaus that we actually like (unlike smog or motel, ugh) because it sparks such joy. Drinking during the day is also something sparks joy. 

So obviously, we jump at the chance to combine the two, which is why we’ve decided to share this round-up of the best bottomless brunches and lunches in Brisbane, so you can join in on the fun. 

Mexicali 

Bulimba 

The best part about Gold Coast institution Mexicali opening in Brisbane is that they’ve brought their famous bottomless banquets with them. Available any day, any time (score), their drinks packages can be added on to any of their banquet menus, featuring 90 minutes of beers, sangria, margaritas, wines and soft drinks for $65pp. (or premium drinks for $85pp). With their banquets starting from $40pp, that means you can get the whole shebang for $105pp, and feast your way through corn chips, esquites, chicken drumettes, quesadillas, tacos and chilli salt squid as you sip on classic margs. We’re sold. 

When: Wednesday to Sunday for dinner and weekend lunch
Cost: From $105pp
