Little Miss Sunshine is a light-filled 250-seat bistro and microbrewery from RMS Group, the team behind fellow inner-city locales Hellcat Maggie, Isles Lane and Fig & Olive. Nestled at the rear of the Heritage Lanes on Ann Street, Little Miss Sunshine embodies the best bits of Queensland, from the killer climate and carefree lifestyle to our world-class produce. Little Miss Sunshine reflects the state’s sun-soaked scenery via a fit-out mixing warm timbers and sturdy brick, with terrazzo stone tops and bumblebee-yellow leather booths giving off a warm and approachable vibe. The venue is equipped with a bar (boasting 28 taps), a fully equipped kitchen (overseen by head chef Ferdinand Sari, formerly of Babylon Brisbane), an alfresco space (for leisurely afternoon catch-ups), a private-dining space and a mezzanine level. Little Miss Sunshine is a bistro first, brewery second, with a lengthy menu fusing Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines with a Queensland-inspired twist. Expect classics like beer-battered barramundi with chips and Moreton Bay bug spaghetti, as well as chicken cotoletta, chicken shawarma and fresh tabbouleh salad. As for the beer, Little Miss Sunshine’s nanobrewery produces a clutch of brews that you’ll only be able to enjoy on site, poured alongside other Queensland-made craft beers and mainstream favourites.
