The gap tavern is my local pub and I love coming here! They always have the best steaks that my family love, and we always go to sit in their comfy booths. Maya served me today and she was so lovely and helpful, and always smiling!

Went there Tuesday night which I assume would be a quiet night there.
Great place for a meal. I wanted just a plain simple pub meal and that’s what I had….rissoles, peas and mash. Perfect. We all enjoyed our meal. As I’m from ACT it will be a while before I return but certainly will. The family though are going to make this a go to place.
Great kids play area and lovely staff. Definitely recommended.

I had the Beef Bourguignon Pie – rich, hearty and just the thing for a winter’s day. The pastry was golden and flaky, packed with tender chunks of beef in a beautifully warming sauce. Served with creamy mash, peas and crispy onion rings – absolute comfort food heaven.

My bf and I get the Karaage bao buns and chips every single time we go to Blind Tiger. Every bite is like taking the first bite. It’s so amazing. However, we went last night and the chips didn’t have the usual seasoning, just salt, and the bao buns tasted really different. Still nice but not the usual and we will be SOOO sad if the recipe has changed as it’s the only dish we get so excited for. Love this place though!

Excellent family-owned cafe at The Gap. The food and coffee (Merlo) are fantastic, and I love the atmosphere with low music playing. There are so many seating options. You can choose inside or outside, and there are all sorts of seats, including lounge chairs to high-back chairs. Some tables also have powerpoint near, so those who want to do some work with a nice coffee and lunch can charge their laptop too. Highly recommended 🙂

Lovely little cafe! Lots of classic brunch options to choose from, including vegetarian. The quality of the food was amazing, with fresh fruit and berries of considerable size in the acai bowl. The granola was crunchy, not soggy, which was lovely. The coffees here are always great and are never bitter 🙏

Alfredo and the team are fabulous. He takes time to know your name and say hello each time. Very popular with the gym members but open for anyone.
Prices are good.
I love that the menu is well thought out and they bake their own cakes.
The breakfast burger is very popular and it is amazing.
The decaf coffee is actually good, and they know how to serve loose leaf tea properly. I recommend the earl grey.

Can’t recommend this place enough. My go-to for morning coffee and weekly cheat meal breakfast.
The place is always really busy and the staff do an incredible job to cater for everyone there. Struggling to get a seat on a weekend due to it’s popularity.

Without a doubt, the best chicken Pho in Brisbane. I’ve been here about 6 times just for it, it’s always been fantastic. It’s not fancy, but it’s the soup you want when you’ve had a bad day or need something wholesome and perfect.

Absolutely the best Vietnamese salad in this small, unassuming cafe at the entrance to The Gap Village shopping centre. After sampling a few from Browns Plains to Paddington, this is the winner! Fresh ingredients, tasty, good service.

Great authentic Vietnamese restaurant in The Gap! The owner is lovely and friendly, the service is quick and the food is decently priced and well portioned. Tastes just like my mum’s cooking! 👌
