Front Yard Bar
Auchenflower
Updated: Sep 24, 2025
Front Yard Bar is Brisbane's best kept secret - a charming rustic treehouse-style bar annexed to a residential house and tucked away in a commercial area of Auchenflower.
After closing for the winter, Front Yard Bar will reopen on Friday September 26 and patrons can now BYO snacks.
Hidden behind a wall of greenery, the split level tiki-themed timber bar is entered via a staircase off the street and is literally like finding yourself at someone's house party.
All patrons (including 4-legged) are greeted warmly by the hosts and owners, who treat you like a guest at their house and invited to take a seat on the lower deck or mezzanine level where there are larger tables for groups.
On site is a 'tiki bar' (a drinks and food cabin where all orders are placed), a collection of table games, water bowl for pooches and a row of bar stools overlooking the street.
Just like the setting, the drinks are at down-to-earth prices, with house wines and spirits, beers and soft drinks on offer. Cocktails include the house Mimosa, as well as Aperol Spritz, Margarita and Strawberry Daiquiri; and there's also a couple of mocktails. Patrons who order drinks can enjoy a side of free popcorn on the house.
The food menu is simple yet delicious, with a choice of bar snacks such as roast peanuts or spring rolls; and FYB grazing plate (your choice of tasty cheeses, pates and olives, water crackers, raw vegetables, chocolates, dips dried fruits & other tapas). For something heartier there's Persian kebabs (succulent chicken, beef or lamb); as well as sweet treats like homemade warm fudge brownie & ice-cream.
Adding to the fun, Front Yard Bar hosts trivia sessions on Sunday afternoons and live unplugged music sessions. Plus you can host your next function at FYB, with packages from $24.90pp.
Need to know - There is onstreet parking available nearby. with free parking on Saturdays and Sundays.
