Overview

So, let me tell you about Dandy’s Rooftop Bar in South Brisbane. I stumbled upon this spot while hunting for a place to grab a drink and maybe some pizza (you know how the craving gets!).

Located at 71/73 Melbourne St, you’d think they’d have it all figured out, given the prime spot near the arts precinct. The views? Yeah, they’re pretty good. Sitting up there, you can watch people bustling below and enjoy a nice breeze—when the weather’s cooperating, that is.

Now, don’t get too hyped just yet. The bar’s got a mixed bag of reviews. With a score of 3.6 out of 5 and about 105 reviews, the chatter is all over the place. Some rave about the cocktail selection and good vibes, while others… well, let’s just say they’re not too pleased with the staff hovering around like hawks. Like, what’s the deal with decent service?

Speaking of which, the staff isn’t exactly winning awards for friendliness. I heard a tale about a bouncer wanting a “bribe” to let someone in—yikes! But hey, there’s also praise for the bartenders who whip up some tasty drinks (Long Island Iced Tea, anyone?).

But seriously, if live music lights your fire, this place has got you covered. Weekends are buzzing with tunes that make you wanna sway—just maybe not so much rap if that’s not your jam. The rooftop seating lets you soak in the atmosphere while you sip, making it a decent spot for hanging out with friends.

Oh, and the food? Mixed opinions, but some folks say the pizza is killer! Just don’t expect to dawdle if you’re starving, as wait times can stretch out. Dandy’s also has a bar menu that’s pretty budget-friendly, which is a sweet deal.

But here’s a thought—if you’re planning a big night out, keep in mind they take reservations. So, maybe give ‘em a ring first, especially if you’re swinging by with a group.

In the end, Dandy’s Rooftop Bar feels like that wild cousin you have—fun and lively at times, a bit messy and unpredictable at others. Worth checking out if you’re in the area for a laid-back evening, but don’t say I didn’t warn you about those service hiccups!
