Fantastic outlook on a good day you can even see Stradbroke Island. Great place to get hitched, or just have a coffee.

Unbelievable views any time of the day. We are so lucky to have bushland next to the city. Fantastic service but sometimes the muffins have not arrived for Saturday 8am service

Do the city tour and it takes you to Mount Coot-tha, the views are awesome. You can see the lay of the Brisbane River as well as looking almost all the way around. Can see for miles. Well worth the trip.

Nothing special about this. Just a lookout over Brisbane which is probably good on a clear day! The lookout is merely the start or finish to the various walks to be enjoyed.

Very easy to get to, clean and well setup for visitors. Parking could be an issue, so get there early if you are visiting during holidays or on weekends.

It is a steady, maybe 45 minute, up hill walk from the Slaughter Falls carpark to the Mt Coot-tha Lookout, but well worth it. Children enjoy the walk and can have a cool drink or an icecream at the top. There is a tap or two on the way if you forgot your water bottle, and toilets at the start.... More

you can sit on the terrace and enjoy the view sipping a coffee and just take in the moment. I often take overseas visitors here particularly if they donot have a lot of time in Brisbane

A wonderful view of all of Brisbane as far as Morton Bay. It is usually cool here with some breeze even on a hot day. The food is a bit more expensive as customers have no other choice.

We stopped off here on the "Round Brisbane" bus tour, in fact we liked it so much we skipped the next 2 buses. Amazing views over the Brisbane area and a very nice cafe as well

We had our dinner at the little shop or cafe they have there and waited for night to fall and see all the lights come over the entire Brisbane and surrounding areas. Great sight.
