Colleges by the River is an alfresco cafe located in the spectacular surrounds of the Colleges Crossing Recreation Reserve. The beautiful parkland stretches along a tidal stretch of the Brisbane River that marks the border between Brisbane and Ipswich. The park is now open following months of rebuilding after the disastrous floods of 2011. The cafe reopened on the 17th January 2013.

Perfect Day
It's a perfect day on the river. As the Lily Allen song goes ... the sun is in the sky why oh why would I want to be anywhere else - but the Brisbane River is still flooding the Colleges Crossing Recreation Reserve - which is still closed. The river level at the park is 9.26m - high than our last flood in October. Mt Crosby Road is still closed with the Colleges Crossing bridge still under water. The Mt Crosby weir is at 11.5m. We have the long weekend on the way - but with the park gates closed - access to the park is limited and difficult, so the cafe will remain closed.
