Agnes Fortitude Valley

Contemporary$$$

There’s no gas here, no electricity – just a blazing hearth over which chef Ben Williamson and his team tend to an endlessly innovative menu steeped in local produce. The striking digs, all low lights in a heritage-listed former dairy co-op, only add to its reputation as Brisbane’s most essential restaurant right now.

Best for: Flame-licked dishes in a cavernous warehouse space.
