Breakfast Creek

Breakfast Creek ("Yawagara")is a small tributary of the Brisbane River. It joins the river at Newstead, next to Newstead Park. The aboriginal name for the waterway was Barrambin. Travelling up the Brisbane River the creek is the first to join the river on its northern banks. Upstream from the Three Mile Scrubs in Kelvin Grove, Breakfast Creek is known as Enoggera Creek.

The Breakfast Creek Hotel is located near the confluence with the Brisbane River and is known for serving XXXX beer exclusively from wooden barrels. Also here is the Breakfast Creek Wharf Seafood Restaurant.

The shorter race in the annual Bridge to Brisbane fun run starts at the Creek bridge.
