While I like the bar (and go there often as a QUT student) this review is just plain misleading.

It certainly does NOT have a "vast range of bottled and draught beer, wine and spirits". It has a perfectly adequate range, for a student bar (and let's face it, that's exactly what this is). But vast? No. Looking for a decent red, or a spirit more exotic than a basic? You wont find it. Want a good cocktail? Not going to happen, the bartenders are just students trying to make some coin, they aren't professionals.

As for river views, well, it would have if the view wasn't blocked by concrete and trees.

Is it a good bar? Yes, definitely, and is far nicer to look at than the old one. But should you make any sort of effort to go there specifically if you weren't already on campus? Probably not.
