Powerhouse Park

Powerhouse Park serves as a central hospitality and recreation hub in New Farm, located on the banks of the Brisbane River. This precinct features several permanent dining establishments and temporary food vendors that cater to visitors attending performances or exploring the surrounding parklands. The area maintains an industrial aesthetic, repurposed from its heritage as a functional power station, and provides expansive seating areas for patrons. It functions as a key social destination for residents and tourists seeking food options in a unique architectural setting. Visitors to the area often combine a meal with a walk through the adjacent New Farm Park or a visit to the Brisbane Powerhouse arts centre. The venue is easily accessible via the local ferry terminal, making it a convenient stop for those using river transport. With various menus available throughout the day, the site accommodates breakfast, lunch, and dinner crowds. The layout supports large groups and provides a transition between the manicured gardens and the riverfront boardwalk.
