About Us

For half a century the Bracken Ridge Tavern has been the place where memories are made. Now we are undertaking an incredible $10 million dollar transformation that will bring a breath of fresh air into your favourite pub, the place that's been a beloved part of the Northside for 50 years. While we respect and honour our history and community there will be a fresh, modern facelift with a complete overhaul of the current layout. Creating memorable dining experiences in our transformed modern restaurant remains our family passion.
