Brisbane’s Best Father’s Day Bookings

Father’s Day is Sunday 6 September 2026, and Brisbane’s pubs are treating it less like a Sunday lunch and more like an occasion. Think 700g steaks, riverside luncheons, surf and turf specials, and enough kids’ entertainment to buy the grown-ups an actual conversation.

Whether Dad wants a quiet buffet breakfast overlooking the river, a proper sit-down feed in the CBD, or a full family day out with a playground attached, there’s a booking below that gets it right without him having to ask twice.

From Toowong to the Mall, here’s where to book Brisbane’s best Father’s Day plans.

Babylon is treating Father’s Day like the occasion it deserves to be, river views and all.

Port Office is letting Dad call the shots this Father’s Day, which, let’s be honest, is rare enough to be worth celebrating on its own.
