Wendy’s, Brisbane CBD

Full internal demolition and fitout of an existing CBD tenancy to deliver Wendy's flagship Australian restaurant. Works included structural alterations, new hydraulic, electrical, and mechanical infrastructure, commercial kitchen installation, custom joinery, architectural finishes across multiple levels, and full shopfront and facade works.
The project required significant structural alterations within an occupied CBD building including slab penetrations, new voids, and stair access modifications. Coordinating extensive services infrastructure for a high-volume commercial kitchen alongside detailed architectural finishes demanded precise trade sequencing. The program was fixed against the brand's Australian market launch date with no flexibility on the opening timeline.
Services and kitchen infrastructure were planned around the restaurant layout during pre-construction so trades could be sequenced without conflict. Structural works, services installation, and finishing trades were programmed to run in a controlled sequence rather than reactively managed on site. A dedicated site leader managed daily coordination across multiple trades and specialist installers to maintain program momentum.
The flagship restaurant was handed over on program and opened as the brand's first Australian location. The completed space combines a high-performance commercial kitchen with a multi-level themed dining environment in the heart of Brisbane CBD.

What our clients value in working with us
“We worked with Crafted Spaces on the build of our brewery and bar fitout at Ocean Reach Brewing in Cowes including the installation of our 1500L brewhouse. Building a brewery requires specialist knowledge and precision and their team clearly understands the unique requirements of brewing facilities. Having been involved in multiple brewery builds across Victoria I've seen how important it is to work with builders who don't cut corners. Crafted Spaces holds themselves to very high standards and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to build or fit out a brewery or hospitality venue.”

“Crafted Spaces and Shane Sandford did an incredible job in bringing this restaurant to life. It’s been a pleasure partnering with you to lift it from the pages and make it a reality. Someone said to me today, “It looks just like the renders…. Actually better!” And that response is one of countless that highlight your team's maniacal focus on the detail, functionality and personification of our brand. Crafted is now part of history, building the highest volume Wendy’s restaurant ever, anywhere in the world. Thank you!”
