Inspired by its humble Burleigh Heads origins, Justin Lane brings its famous handmade pizzas and pasta to the heart of Brisbane. The sourdough-based pizzas have already become a talking point among locals and visitors alike. But it’s not just about the food – an impressive drinks list featuring cocktails, wine, spirits, beer, and cider complements the culinary offerings.

The heritage-listed building has undergone a dramatic transformation while retaining its exterior charm. Inside, acclaimed Gold Coast design firm Space Cubed has worked its magic, creating a dining area for 200, alongside a high-end underground cocktail bar, rooftop space, cafe, and takeaway area.

Justin Lane Brisbane caters to both spontaneous visitors and those who plan ahead, with a “Walk-Ins Welcome, Bookings Recommended” policy. The main takeaway area is perfect for those on the go, while the various dining spaces offer something for every occasion.

This new chapter in the building’s history comes after a tumultuous period that saw the closure of A&C in late 2017. Now, under the guidance of the local Justin Lane Group hospitality empire, the venue is poised to reclaim its status as a Valley hotspot.

With its blend of casual dining, upscale drinking experiences, and a nod to its predecessor’s legacy, Justin Lane Brisbane is set to become the new go-to destination in Fortitude Valley.
