About Joey's

Perched atop the Kangaroo Point Cliffs, Joey's serves up panoramic Brisbane River vistas with a breezy holiday pulse. Morning crowds drop by for espresso, hash browns, and the flaky Nutella conut, while the afternoon shifts smoothly toward thin-crust anchovy pizza and Moreton Bay bug rolls. Long tables fill quickly for birthday toasts and milestones, where floor staff often slip a candle into dessert on the house. As evening lights ripple across the water, the scene settles into spritzes, tart Fresco Fizz mocktails, and plates of prawn spaghetti.

  • Cliff-Top CBD Views: 180-degree panoramas of the Brisbane River and CBD skyline directly from Kangaroo Point Cliffs.
  • Wood-Fired & Coastal Fare: Crisp wood-fired pies, Moreton Bay bug rolls, and spaghetti with generous fresh prawns.
  • All-Day Cafe Culture: Morning coffee and fresh pastries, including the signature Nutella conut, starting from 6:00 AM daily.
  • Milestone Gatherings: Warm hospitality that regularly marks birthdays and anniversaries with surprise celebratory desserts.

    Early morning service serves up quality coffee, pastries, and generous breakfast dishes against a scenic cliffside river backdrop.

Before you head over

Helpful tips on timing, reservations, and seating to make the most of your visit

  • Time Your Lunch for the Full Menu

    If you plan to order pasta or the full lunch spread, arrive after 12:00 PM, as the kitchen serves only pizzas and starters between 11:00 AM and midday.

  • Book Ahead for Riverfront Seating

    The venue fills up quickly even on regular weekdays, so securing an advance reservation is recommended to ensure you get a scenic table without waiting.

  • Prepare for Afternoon Sun

    During bright afternoons, sun exposure can be intense without window blinds, so request table umbrellas or shaded spots for optimal comfort while enjoying the view.
