You’ve spent weeks trawling through buck’s weekend ideas and Brisbane venues to match, and the groom-to-be is about to hit the streets as your single bud for the very last time.

But before he learns exactly why you’ve earned the ‘best man’ title (or comes to regret giving you that much power), your Brisbane buck’s night needs the perfect opening chapter.

Hit The Fox Hotel for 3 ways to kick off a Brisbane buck’s party.

1. Casual drinks and dinner at Fish Lane Bistro

Hey, not every buck gears up for a night of strippers and shots. For the laid-back guest of honour, keep things low-key at Fish Lane Bistro.

For those done and dusted with those hard-core party years, a pint of beer and steaks with the boys is all you’ll need for a good night out.

2. Strut your stuff on Dandy’s Rooftop

Why wait ‘til later? Start hard and keep going with a super-charged opener on Dandy’s Rooftop.

And just so we’re clear – it’s not the best man’s job to wrestle the groom away from the dance floor. Just let those embarrassing moves happen.

Worried things will fizzle too early? Keep the party going with a round of Blackstar Espresso Martinis and some tasty rooftop bar bites.

3. Fill up with a pre-drinking dinner

Planning to head out for a night on the town on an empty stomach? Rookie move. Fill up the tank with pre-ordered platters fit for the whole gang.

No flimsy finger-food here! Lay into platters of homemade rustic pies, charcoal grilled skewers and assorted pizza slices. Trust us – you’ll all be grateful for it at 3am.
