Any recommendations?

Been here for a year so far but haven't really explored the city to its fullest

[dismalfuture]

Hit up the Indooroopilly shops

really loving the campos coffee store on wandoo street in the valley.

probably the best coffee i have ever had, plus the food is top notch as well - their fry up, and BLT is amazing. as is their selection of sweets, cakes, etc. check it out.

been waiting for a thread on brisbane forever, but didn't think there was really enough people on here to get one started.

Indooroopilly???

what shops? Was just there today but nothing special imo

I'm a fan of the Family in the Valley esp Friday nights

[dedecaca]

Indooroopilly is not worth your time.

I would suggest going to the stores in Fortitude Valley, specifically some of the ones that are reviewed on SuFu such as Blonde Venus (and the Outpost, these two stores are run by the same fashion power-couple) and some of the others along that stretch.

There are some interesting places in the West End, which isn't far from Brisbane's city. There's an especially interesting bookshop down that way called Avid Reader, I believe.

There are occasionally some vintage gems to be found in the second-hand opportunity shops in the Paddington area.

I'm working on a project that'll give me reason to be in Brisbane shortly. I've got a survey for the Australian Superfuture contingent, to figure out what you do with your money. I'm not collecting any personal details; no names, emails, IPs, but if you could spare a few minutes to answer some questions about what you wear, I'll slip you some +rep!

the shopping really sucks balls in brisbane. i don't think i've bought a single item of clothing here in the last 3 years, except a pair of country road pants from a myer sale maybe.

having said that, uq schonell (sp?) theatre pizza is the motherfucking bomb, and it took me a while to admit that cause i went to qut.

where's a good place to get a haircut in bris and not get raped?
