About Anyday

At Anyday, we create places that feel good to be in—spaces shaped by genuine hospitality, a deep love for food and a belief in the quiet power of connection. Our venues are guided by instinct, not formulas, offering warmth, character, and moments that linger long after the table’s been cleared.

Founded in 2014, Anyday’s current portfolio includes Agnes, Idle, Biànca, hôntô, LOS, sAme sAme and the newly opened Golden Avenue - with plans for many more.

About The French Exit 

Opening in early December, The French Exit is Brisbane’s ode to Paris, alive with clatter, candlelight, and the European perfume of butter and wine. Steak frites, duck à l’orange, escargot, and soufflé are served with soul, while wine makes for the heartbeat with over five hundred bottles carefully chosen. The tables are close, the energy unfiltered, and every detail whispers 'bistrot'.
