Barry Parade Public House

BARRY PARADE PUBLIC HOUSE CLOSED IN MARCH 2026.

Barry Parade Public House is a neighbourhood bar and eatery serving Creole-style bar snacks, top notch cocktails and vintage spirits in Fortitude Valley. 

Conveniently situated between Brisbane City and Fortitude Valley, this convivial joint is equal parts about community, cocktails, an expansive selection of rotating spirits, delicious beers and wines. 

The bar's design showcases the 1920s features of the building, featuring dark timber bar benches and seating, terrazzo flooring and pendant lighting. Sit inside by the bar, on the bench-style seating, out the back in a hidden booth, or enjoy the sunshine streetside with the alfresco seating. 

When it comes to the food, a tight, yet flavoursome menu of plates with a Creole twist and touch of European flair are available. You can expect an array of delectable options, from meticulously prepared bar snacks and cured meats to satisfying larger plates that cater to all palates. To be washed down with a classic or signature cocktail, hard-to-come-by spirits, a local beer or eclectic wines. 

Good to know - the outside area is dog-friendly, so stop in for a pint (or two) with your pup! 

Need to know - Sadly, Barry Parade Public House is set to close permanently on Sunday March 29.
