At Doughcraft, our vision is to blend the rich traditions of French and Italian culinary arts, bringing the best of both worlds under one roof. We are dedicated to creating exceptional products with passion, tradition, and authenticity.

From sunrise, our masterful French bakers craft unique viennoiseries and artisanal bread, ensuring every bite transports our customers to a quaint Parisian bakery. By midday, our freshly baked breads become the heart of delightful sandwiches and paninis, perfect for a busy city lunch.

As the sun sets, Doughcraft transforms into an Italian haven. Our skilled Italian chefs take over, infusing the evening with the vibrant flavours of Italy. Whether it’s our hand-made pasta, authentic pizzas, or other Italian specialties, each dish is a testament to our dedication to culinary excellence.

At Doughcraft, we celebrate the unity of these two renowned culinary traditions, offering Brisbane a unique and unforgettable dining experience from morning till night.

    We attended for my partner’s birthday and we were overall super happy with the whole experience. The wait staff very extremely friendly, inviting and helpful and the food was so delicious. The wait staff even sang happy birthday to my partner as they brought out our dessert, which was such a lovely and thoughtful touch. We will definitely be back in the future.

    Atmosphere is ok, very noisy like a family restaurant. Definitely not a date night location. Service was average, got served wrong dish at entree. Food was most disappointing- $44 veal was a deep fried snitzel with lettuce-a lot of lettuce! Worst beef tartare I’ve ever had. Beef ragu tasted like can spaghetti. This is not an Italian restaurant it’s a pub. Pub food at fine dining prices. Waiter offered to remove veal from the bill (very kind) then after leaving realised was charged for the veal. Had to return for refund- awkward! Rosemary Negroni was terrible. For the price (over $200 for 2 people) there are way better options for a delicious meal in a far better atmosphere. Left very disappointed, will not return.

    My friend Maria and I had a lovely dinner, served by the most handsome waiter and all the waiters were so gracious. Of course our very own Mr MKR Simone himself came and greeted us and we felt blessed and honored to be in his restaurant and presence.

    We enjoyed the whole experience only negative was the cannoli. Did not appear fresh, felt like it had been stored in the fridge. The rest of the food was delicious, the staff were amazing as well.

    A bit of waiting time for tables despite having reservations. Food is too long to arrive. Staff takes time to serve requests (handing menus, additional orders) but to be fair it was a bisy night and one of the staff is new. Food is average but loved their carbonara❤️
