Marlowe

Housed in a heritage-listed 1930s apartment block on South Brisbane’s Fish Lane, Marlowe is a nostalgic Australian bistro from the Fanda Group that blends mid-century charm with modern flair. Spread across nine intimate dining spaces, the fit-out nods to the building’s residential past, while the menu – led by chef and co-owner Ollie Hansford – reimagines comforting classics like duck pie, cheesy garlic bread made with Lune croissant pastry and coral trout Wellington using top-tier local produce. A sharp cocktail list and a 200-strong wine program featuring rare Australian vintages round out a dining experience that feels both warmly familiar and distinctly elevated.
