REVIEW: Belvedere Hotel – Woody Point, Redcliffe

Sharing is caring!

The Belvedere Hotel sits on beautiful Bramble Bay giving it great views and sea breezes.  While “The Bel” is a hotel, it offers a large, family friendly restaurant complete with kid’s play area.  Its proximity to some of Redcliffe’s top parks (and that’s a big call because Redcliffe does awesome parks) makes it a perfect destination for kid friendly dining in Brisbane’s north.

Belvedere Hotel for Kids

Belvedere Hotel Kid Friendly Restaurant in Brisbane's North

The Belvedere Hotel features a kid’s playground and a “mini-arcade” for older kids.  The playground is ideal for children aged up to around 10 years with a nautical themed fenced play area.  The playground is situated in the back of the main restaurant (so your kids can make a little noise without annoying diners) and is surrounded by tables.  Parents can dine of fresh seafood and hearty steaks while kids play safely within view!   What more could a parent want!

Did someone say ice-cream bar?

Why yes, yes there is an ice-cream bar in the main dining area.  While you’re standing there waiting for your kids to decide between the various scoops available, grab a coffee or a slushy when it’s hot!  Unlike a lot of “local pubs” that add family friendly elements, The Belvedere has created a dining experience that is 100% targeted to family dining.  This makes a big difference to the “feel” of the restaurant and your kids will love it.

Did someone say Date Night?

Date night with kids.  Why even bother?  The Belvedere is all about helping parents have something special while kids run amok in the play areas.  The food is “date night” treat quality (steak and crabs is their specialty).
