Why Poppies for Family Dining?
Poppies Southbank is a proper all-day restaurant on Little Stanley Street — not a pop-up, not a set-menu-only special. Come in for a relaxed morning brunch, a long family lunch, or a late afternoon meal before the day winds down.
The alfresco terrace is one of the best outdoor dining spots in South Bank. It's shaded, spacious, and right on the street — the kind of place where you can sit for two hours without feeling rushed. We have a full kids menu and high chairs, so if you're bringing the whole family, everyone's looked after.
Whether you're here for an early coffee, a long lunch, a cold beer or a round of cocktails, the day can take its time.

A South Bank Family Day
September is one of the best months to be in South Bank. The weather is warming up, the Parklands are green, and the riverside walk is at its best. After brunch or lunch at Poppies, the whole precinct is right there — the Queensland Museum, the Gallery of Modern Art, Streets Beach, and the Parklands.
It's a full day out without having to drive anywhere. Park once, eat well, and let South Bank do the rest.
