Doo-Bop Bar

I have been here a number of times, yet
Tonight was so disappointing
Bad vibes bad music.service not the best. So sad. After tonight I wouldn't go back sorry

My review is based on the fact and experience of more than 12 months attending this place every Friday night. The staff is very good, the audience is mostly elderly and some middle-aged 40s complaint for nothing, but kicked us out when we went the next week staff told us they do not have any background about this matter. They provided free drinks but wasnt happy unless they had bases, we found that certain audiences were racist, serving staff is very good, and Gavin is fantastic. Unfortunately, I and my group decided to say goodbye to this place, not enough space upstairs.

What a fantastic find, a New York-style piano bar in Brisbane! Comfortable atmosphere, very friendly barmen who make great cocktails, and an excellent pianoman with a great voice and a wide repertoire of songs. He's also enthusiastic for requests. A wonderful place to unwind, sing along or just soak it in.

Such a great change of pace and caters for all age groups. As you enter it feels more like a friends house party then a nightclub. Staff are amazing lead by oliver and challenge you to find a drink that wont tantalise your taste buds or offer a better alternative. Live entertainment are well picked out and know how to play the room. Must do experience when in the city

Loved this place, we went to both the piano bar and the basement bar and the vibe was immaculate. The piano man was on fire and the jazz band was really great. Played pool and had a lot of cocktails, totally worth it.

Intimate gig space in the Basement. No comment on food as I haven't dined, but comments from other people where good. Need to get there early to secure a spot close to the front, otherwise can be hard to see.

Good atmosphere and restricted collection on drinks. Live music is good and the atmosphere is very nice.

Went to this bar last Thursday with my friend, love a good piano bar and they are hard to find. The bar team were awesome, good atmosphere and great live music. If I lived local I would be a local! Thanks for a great night I’ll be back next time I’m in Brisbane ️

Cosy downstairs bar where I saw Shane Nicholson perform some of his many songs. The bar is well-stocked and amenities good.

Rather small but well positioned bar. The live music provides a wonderful atmosphere where people felt comfortable getting up and dancing or singing along.
The drinks are reasonably priced and the staff are genuinely friendly and kind people.

Don't expect to find a seat or have much room to stand if with a reasonable sized group.

Very busy little bar, bottom end of Edward Street, with live entertainment (a lively duo were playing 80's & 90's tunes, on the night we were there), popular cocktail's were the go to, with four working the bar - fits 50 to 60 people comfortably. More than likely find ourselves back there on a return to Brisbane.

What a great experience. We rarely venture out, but attended upstairs for a birthday party. We ended up being drawn downstairs to the basement where we saw the best adhoc playing band. Good prices, very good staff and even better atmosphere. We might get out a bit more now

Brilliant night of live jazz and blues etc. One thing - I rang and asked about accessibility for my mum, told there was a lift only to be told on the night that it isn't in use anymore.

Great to see some live music again! And on a Wednesday! #stoked
Loved the option to submit song requests. Musician was very talented and did their best to play our requests. Bar staff were friendly and attentive. Loved the cocktails. Plenty of seating. Would love to come back on our next trip. Highly recommended. Thanks for an awesome evening!

From the amazing talent behind the piano, to the delicious cocktails from behind the bar, this place is stunning. The staff were attentive, friendly, and accommodating, and make a damn fine Manhattan. For a low-key, more intimate performance head in on a Thursday night. For a rambunctious, dance-till-you-drop night, make sure you're there on a Saturday. Will be back, soon & often!

So glad to see Doo Bop in full swing again! Great bar, great atmosphere and great staff (thanks Hannah ️). Always high atop of my must-do list whenever I come to Brisbane.

So nice to see this iconic venue open again after a long closure due to covid Both bars were in full swing with piano bar upstairs and jazz in the basement. Great bar staff.

The bartender you had on the night of the 16th of Feb (2022) was an absolute beautiful human being! Not only did he offer excellent service but he put up with me and my friend and made sure we made it safe to our rides home before closing up for the night! 10/10 would come back not just for the atmosphere but the level of care and service. Sorry I didn’t get your name but as it was the first time I had been there the first impression was enough to have me coming back!

Discovered this piano bar on Saturday night out with friends - after dinner.
We were highly impressed with the place.

Live music is back and after a night at the Doo-Bop Bar it certainly reminded us what we had been missing.
It felt like a safe place, had super friendly and engaging staff.

Drink prices wet reasonable for bar like this that has no cover charge.

Luckily, we were there for both the early and late piano men shows. Pretty sure it was Shane Parry we saw after 10pm and Michael Hynes earlier. Both had the party going the singalongs.

They is also a basement jazz bar we didn’t venture into, but our friends said it was certainly worth a visit.

Cool little spot with some live music in Brisbane which is much better than the same ol playlists most other venues run at their venues week after week
