Tucked at the base of 1 Newstead Terrace near Waterfront Park, Puck Bar is a lively cafe and tapas spot that’s been drawing in passersby with its blend of brunch favourites, sunset bites and cheeky charm. Taking over the former home of The Fox’s Hollow, Puck has transformed the space with fresh green and white tones, timber accents, and an open frontage offering views of the river. Guests can settle into the main dining area or sunlit outdoor tables, or grab a drink from the sleek bar and coffee counter. Mornings feature Industry Beans coffee and brunch classics like smashed avo on ciabatta or smoked salmon bagels, while lunch brings hearty plates like wagyu cheeseburgers and confit-duck salad. Come evening, the menu shifts to a tapas-style selection of standouts like grilled scampi, Peking duck crepes, Moreton Bay bug baos, and Turkish pide, all paired with Aussie wines, Slipstream beers, and a curated cocktail list – including the tropical, coconut-spiked Newstead Tropic.
