We’re searching for a Head Chef to lead the kitchen at the Brook Hotel - the beating heart of our local community and the place where pub classics meet plates locals can’t get enough of.

Welcome to the Brook Hotel. Open now after an extensive renovation with our state of the art gaming room already up and running. We're a part of the Mitchelton and greater Brisbane community. Embedded in life's moments of our locals for decades, we've heard it all. Stories of frivolity, comradery and a spicy love story here and there.

Find your way into our beer garden and pull up a chair beneath our 60 year old fig tree. It's the perfect place to share a drink, a traditional Napoli pizza (where there's plenty of slices to go around), and a story or two. You're among friends here.

We're more than just bricks and mortar, we're a local for our locals. We crave the long family lunches in our bistro, and the quick drink as you catch the game in our sports bar.
