Best Group Dining in Brisbane

Group dining in Brisbane is better when the table is loud, the food keeps coming and everyone leaves full. Whether it’s the work team after knockoff, mates from out of town or the whole family on a weekend, these restaurants deliver, from wing combos and Tex-Mex to a full German feast.

Winghaus

Winghaus makes ordering for a group simple, with combos that cover the table. The Clanger brings six baby back ribs, 20 classic wings and two serves of fries, while The Disposal stacks 30 fried wings with coleslaw and mash and gravy. Split a few between the group and add some deep-fried pickles, corn ribs and buttermilk chicken tenders.  With the game on the screens, and craft beers and cocktails at the bar, it suits a team lunch or after-work catch-up just as well as a big weekend get-together.  Explore Winghaus at Bowen Hills and Edward St.

El Camino Cantina

El Camino Cantina is perfect for a group that likes to share. The Combination Plate serves chicken and beef steak fajitas, house-made tortillas, cheese, pico de gallo and sour cream. Loaded Elote Corn Ribs and Street Carne Tacos go down the middle for everyone to grab, and churros with chocolate or caramel sauce. The music is upbeat, sombreros are given to everyone and margaritas suit the mood, keeping the energy high from the first plates to the last.  Explore El Camino Cantina at Bowen Hills, South Bank and Westfield Chermside.

The Bavarian

For a big group at The Bavarian Westfield Chermside, the move is to order for the table. Start with a couple of the house feast platters, each loaded with crackling pork belly, a mix of German sausages and chicken schnitzel, plus pickled cabbage and creamy mash. Add a whole crispy pork knuckle and a full rack of BBQ pork ribs to share, and everyone can try a bit of everything. There’s a good range of German beers on tap, and with seating indoors and out, there’s room for the whole group.
