Hive

HIVE is a compact tasty addition to Brisbane CBD's The Riverside Centre, providing fast quality eats for the corporate crew in the surrounding buildings.

Situated within the buzzing riverside zone of 123 Eagle Street, HIVE offers lunch with a view in the modern food court where workers can enjoy delicious lunchtime meals overlooking the Brisbane River and the Story Bridge.

HIVE cooks hot burgers, sandwiches and rolls with passion and with a difference, giving Brisbane nothing but the best.

The signature dish here is The Hive, which pulls together two mouthwatering angus beef patties with a double layer of melted cheese and fresh salad all wrapped up in an American sesame seed bun. Adding the piping hot and extra crunchy fries is a ‘must do’ every time unless opting for the healthier salads or vegetables.

Those looking for something a little lighter on the calories yet not lighter on the meat can opt for the healthy and hearty sandwiches. The Reuben is a classic New York choice with corned beef and Thousand Island dressing while the basil pesto in The Watson is just delicious.

However the salads boast a little more pizzazz with unique elements that take HIVE into the gourmet playing field.

Tip: Replace the usual workers coffee hit with a fresh juice (with ginger!) from HIVE for a healthy kick of raw energy to get you through the rest of the working day.
