Hidden away in the leafy streets of Woolloongabba, but no secret to Brisbane’s food-lovers, you’ll find our venue of the month Pawpaw Café.

Pawpaw is famous for all day breakfasts, creative lunches and mouth-watering Thai-inspired dinners. It’s easy to while away an evening in one of Pawpaw’s three airy, Bali-chic dining rooms with a cocktail in hand, feasting on the delectable seasonally changing menu.

We’ve also partied at Pawpaw several times in the past few months - they have a beautiful unique function space for parties, weddings and events.

We spent a lovely afternoon with Keira Maclachlan, the mind behind Pawpaw’s delicious cocktail list. Check out Keira’s Ink Gin and Pure Cane creations below.
