We've been to Panama Jacks at Bracken Ridge Tavern twice since we discovered it so close to home. It's the perfect place for a Friday night out or an easy midweek meal. All of the staff are lovely and very helpful. The Steak & Rib Combo ($36.90) is enormous with a Cape Grim rib fillet, half rack of ribs, chunky chips, coleslaw, chargrilled corn cob & onion rings. We ordered two and used the Entertainment Book to get one free but it beat us both and we brought home most of the ribs to enjoy the next day. On our second visit we ordered the garlic bread, chicken parmy and a chicken snitty with gravy. The chicken serving sizes are much more realistic, i.e. the parmy isn't the size of your head like some of my fav bars back in Melbourne.. If you are after dessert you can head next door to Phoenix or to the Gloria Jeans inside Panama Jacks for coffee & desserts. Tips: Grab a bucket of Coronas for $20 and get a free hat. Join the BRT Rewards Club to get great discounts, rewards and specials. It's free and you will receive a $10 food voucher for your next visit - you can't beat that. read more

Harry Browns Brackenridge - The enormous Steak & Rib Combo - Beer, Wine & Spirits Near Me - Bracken Ridge, QLD

Fantastic! Not exactly a "date" location for a young couple, but the food was amazing (much, much better than I was expecting from a local pub!), the staff were super nice and friendly (a free extra gravy for our chips, on of the best gravies I've had), and I just couldn't fault the place! Everything was amazing, if you don't have a lot of cash to spend, and you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend it! :D read more

Great modern interior with friendly service. Menu is extensive but a little on the expensive side for a tavern. I've had steak here a couple times now and it's always over cooked. Ribs are excellent here very tender and tasty BBQ sauce. Over all a good night out close to home read more

This is our local. Love the different restaurants and eateries inside. Good family place, or to play pinkies, or to take a date at the Phoenix & listen to live music. Good food at Phoenix & bartenders know every kind of cocktail. read more

Saw the ad for $25 all you can eat ribs so took 2 mates and headed up for dinner. What a scam. When we got there we were told that we had to buy drinks to "unlock" the all you can eat ribs after we had paid so we did. Then we sat down and were immediately brought plates with 3 small racks, a huge pile of coleslaw, a bowl of potato wedges and a large piece of garlic bread. The waiter told us that we had to finish EVERYTHING on the plate before we could order more ribs and the second plate would only have 2 racks and the same deal applies ... eat everything before you can order more. By this stage we were convinced it was a scam. Started to eat and found a piece of plastic in the coleslaw. Complained and was given a free beer. Then we had to wait for almost an hour for the second plate to arrive and it only had 1 small rack on it. By this stage I had had enough so asked to speak to the manager who never arrived and when I asked when they would be over I was told they were very busy. The place was almost empty. While waiting we noticed a group of 4 young guys came in and ordered their first round of ribs. None of them ate anything other than the ribs on their plates and were then given a second plate of ribs. These were quickly returned and they walked out to the bar and were given 4 free drinks. When I asked them why they told me that one of them had found a fly cooked into his ribs. An absolute total scam. None of this is mentioned on the website ... just a photo of ribs with the tag "$25 all you can eat ribs" I will never be back and I would honestly recommend that no one ever goes there. read more
