Feast on Italian Food in Brisbane's Newest Laneway
Soon you'll be gathering the crew for limoncello and pasta in Woolloongabba.
Think buzzy laneways are the inner city's domain? Think again. As Brisbane keeps embracing the Melbourne trend, little nooks and crannies have started popping up everywhere. Woolloongabba's latest alley addition is even going Italian.
In the news that hungry east- and south-siders will love, a couple of Trafalgar Lane's first tenants have been announced, with Ristorante La Famiglia and Lola Coffee chief among them. The former will serve up authentic Italian dishes and drinks; think feasts of pasta, sips of limoncello and a family restaurant feel. The latter will cure your caffeine fix and make their steaming hot cuppas — whether made with Coffee Alchemy beans or Zokoko chocolate — a focus.
They're not the only eateries gracing the new precinct, which spans the space between Stanley and Trafalgar streets. It was designed by the architects behind Melbourne's Prahran Hotel, and is due to open in May. Anyone with a carnivorous appetite will want to head to Ribs & Burgers, with the James Street meat-lover's paradise opening a second outlet.
If the whole laneway sounds like an exciting addition to the area, and all just a hop, skip, jump and footy handball away from the Gabba stadium too, well, that's because it is. And, it's just one of a wave of changes transforming Woollloongabba. Sure, everyone has been heading out for dinner and drinks at the end of Logan Road for years — but with these eateries, and the new South City Square development in the works as well, prepare to drop by much more often.
Find Ristorante La Famiglia, Lola Coffee and Ribs & Burgers at Trafalgar Laneway, Woollongabba. Check out the precinct website for more information.
