The Labour Day public holiday means drinks, brunch, or maybe both, and generally having a blast in the sunshine (please, let their be sunshine). Plenty of Brisbane's best cafes and bars are leaving their doors open on Monday, so you can get your nosh on, your caffeine hit, or something stronger if you fancy. Happy days.
