Desperately need to be snapped from that mid-summer stupor? A few rounds of beverages at Blackbird's outdoor terrace bar should do the trick nicely.

Here, you'll sneak a peek at the setting sun while enjoying views across the river to the Story Bridge. There's an impressive selection of oysters and caviar on offer too, for a truly decadent sundowner session — because really, nothing screams 'Queensland summer' quite like champagne and seafood on the waterfront. Bliss.
