The restaurant and cafe on Mount Coot-tha might be operated by popular Brisbane hospitality company Jimmy's on the Mall for the next 20 years.

Brisbane City Council will consider whether to award two separate leases to Jimmy's on the Mall, which in turn is owned by Mantle Group, for the restaurant and cafe at 1012 Sir Samuel Griffith Drive.

The two buildings are held in trust by the council on behalf of the state government, and are currently trading as the Summit Restaurant and Kuta Cafe. Those two leases expired in August.

Companies that submitted tenders to take over the two leases for the next 20 years offered different proposals.
