Chandon Spritz Garden at Customs House
Spend an afternoon sipping sparkling wine with orange bitters — and tucking into citrus-poached Moreton Bay bug croissants — by the river.
Overview
If drinking spritzes is your favourite way to sip — and basking in stunning river views is your favourite way to spend an afternoon, too — then a waterside date filled with drinks by Brisbane's ol' brown snake should definitely be in your future. That's all on the agenda at Customs House, which is celebrating the warmer weather by turning its terrace into a Chandon-pouring pop-up garden.
It's the Queen Street venue's latest seasonal makeover, and it comes complete with greenery aplenty (and pops of orange as well) for you and your mates to hang out in — while peering at the river and knocking back a range of beverages, of course.
The drinks list will hero the Chandon garden spritz, which combines Chandon's sparkling wine with orange bitters; however, there'll also be French, Italian and Australian vino, plus margaritas and espresso martinis.
Open Thursdays–Sundays weekly until Thursday, October 27 — from 4pm on Thursdays and Fridays and 1pm on Saturdays and Sundays — the pop-up is also serving up a selection of bites to line your stomach.
Customs House's beloved Moreton Bay bug croissant is back, this time featuring citrus-poached bug. Or, there's caviar with blini and crème fraiche; salmon gravlax with blood orange, smoked sour cream and chive oil; and fromage croquettes with pickled walnut and rosemary aioli.
