🐟 THE ORIGINAL. THE BEST. THE BENCHMARK. 🍋
When it comes to Lemon Sole, nobody does it quite like New Farm Seafood.
Others can try to copy what we do, but there’s a reason our customers keep coming back year after year. From the quality of our seafood to Chef Josh’s famous lemon & caper butter, every detail matters.
Delicate, light, and perfectly cooked, our Lemon Sole simply lets exceptional seafood speak for itself. Finished with our house-made lemon & caper butter, it's a dish that has earned a loyal following across Brisbane.
Here's what our customers have to say:
💬 "Outstanding!"
💬 "Absolutely magnificent."
💬 "The best fish I've had in Brisbane."
💬 "Worth travelling across town for."

🔥 THIS FRIDAY
🥘🦐 Winter tastes better at New Farm Seafood.
There’s something special about gathering around a steaming pan of seafood paella on a cool Brisbane evening. Rich saffron rice, house-made stock, fresh local seafood and the kind of flavour that only comes from taking your time.
And here's the thing… you won't find this experience anywhere else.
No other fresh seafood market or restaurant in Brisbane offers a monthly event quite like this. Our famous paella, prepared from scratch by Chef Josh using seafood straight from our market, has become a tradition for many of our regulars.
Beautiful bugs, prawns, mussels and all those little details that make you pause after the first bite.
✨ Completely Gluten Free
🔥 Made fresh to order
📅 Last Friday of every month
📍 New Farm Seafood, Brisbane

🦪 FREE KILPATRICK OYSTER TASTING 🦪
The NFS Pop-Up Stand is back!
At New Farm Seafood, we believe great seafood should be experienced, not just talked about. That's why we're once again firing up our famous Oysters Kilpatrick and giving our customers the chance to taste them FREE.
Not many fresh seafood markets would offer complimentary oyster tastings, but we're not like most seafood markets. We've always believed in looking after our customers and sharing our passion for exceptional seafood.
Over the years, thousands of locals have flocked to our tasting days, and it's easy to see why. Freshly shucked oysters, Chef Josh's famous Kilpatrick recipe, friendly faces, and a team that genuinely loves what they do.

🍷 At New Farm Seafood, we believe an exceptional dining experience goes far beyond what's on the plate.
🍷 That's why we're constantly working behind the scenes to build what we believe is one of Brisbane's finest wine selections.
🍷 Today, Matt from Paramount Liquor, Wine Specialist, was hard at work helping us expand and refine our exclusive wine list. Every bottle is carefully considered, tasted, and selected to ensure it perfectly complements the premium seafood, sushi, and sashimi we proudly serve.
🍷 From elegant whites that pair beautifully with fresh oysters, to bold reds for those who love something a little richer, we're committed to offering our customers a wine experience that's every bit as memorable as the food.
🍷 It's this attention to detail that drives everything we do. Whether you're visiting our fresh seafood market, dining in our à la carte restaurant, or enjoying our sushi and sashimi bar, we want every aspect of your visit to be exceptional.
🍷 Because our customers deserve nothing less. ❤️

The Return of the Chef Special
Rainbow Trout Dolmades [GF]
smoked garlic labneh
Everyone, please take a seat! Let us explain.
When Chef Josh first let his imagination run wild and paired fresh Rainbow Trout with smoked garlic labneh inside traditional vine leaf parcels, we knew he was onto something special. But after the overwhelming number of you asked for its return, we had no choice but to bring it back.
No one in Brisbane serves seafood quite like this. Imaginative, innovative, and unapologetically original — because at New Farm Seafood, we don't follow trends, we create them.

❄️ WINTER COMFORT HAS ARRIVED
❄️ Brisbane, the winter chill is officially here, and we have found the absolute ultimate way to warm you up this weekend!
We are hosting another pop-up event this Saturday, 13 June, right outside Coles at Merthyr Village! Drop by, say hello, and enjoy a steaming sample of our famous NFS Seafood Chowder, one of our Chef-Made Meals To Go! You can also enjoy it when dining in.
We’ve packed this winter heater with the good stuff:
🥓 Smoky bacon
🌽 Sweet corn
🐟 Flaky, tender fish
🦐 Juicy prawns
🦪 ...and our signature super-fresh mussels!
Why do the mussels matter? Because we source them fresh daily for our market, they retain that plump, sweet, oceanic flavor. It completely transforms the depth of the broth—you’ll taste the difference in your very first spoonful!
🚫🌾 BEST OF ALL? IT’S 100% GLUTEN-FREE!
As Brisbane’s leading destination for gluten-safe dining, we make sure nobody misses out on the ultimate winter comfort food.
📍 Where: Outside Coles at Merthyr Village (85 Merthyr Rd)
🗓️ When: This Saturday, 13 June 2026
⏰ Time: From 10amto 2pm until sold out!
See you there, New Farm! 👋

A Personal Note from Michael
[owner/operator]
As the years pass, I’m reminded more than ever that time is our most valuable gift.
Life moves quickly. The days become weeks, the weeks become years, and before we know it, another chapter has passed. It’s easy to get caught up in the rush of everyday life and forget to appreciate the moments that truly matter.
For me, New Farm Seafood has never just been about seafood. It’s about people. The conversations across the counter, the familiar faces returning week after week, the families celebrating together, and the friendships built over many years.
I want to thank every one of you who has been part of our journey. Your support, loyalty, and kindness mean more than words can express.
If there’s one thing I’ve been reflecting on lately, it’s this: make time for the people you care about. Share a meal, make the phone call, enjoy the conversation, and create the memories. Those moments become the things we treasure most.
Thank you for being part of ours.
Michael
