West End, Brisbane
3km South of the Brisbane CBD West End is best known as being a
melting-pot of cuisines and cultures. Mostly bound by the Brisbane
River, West End is a mix of older, heritage listed homes and new
apartments. A vibrant restaurant and cafe scene can be found on
Boundary Street. Small entertainment venues offer a different
experience to the Fortitude Valley or CBD night-life. West End is also
home to the space-needle, a relic of Expo88. There are also some
alternative retail opportunities along Boundary Street. Musgrave Park
is the site of many fairs and festivals through-out the year. Nearby
Orthodox Church of St George is a large Greek Orthodox Church.
West End has high-frequency bus services that run towards the city.
There is also a Citycat ferry service that goes to the university at
Saint Lucia and downriver to
Hamilton. South Brisbane Railway Station and the Cultural Centre Busway Station
provide quick access to the southern suburbs. See more on our
transport pages.
