East Ipswich is a residential inner-city suburb of Ipswich, Queensland, Australia. One of the older suburbs, East Ipswich is predominantly made up of weatherboard and fibro houses punctuated with larger heritage houses, and newer townhouses and flats.[2]

The suburb is bordered on the north and west by two sections of the Bremer River (split by small suburb of Basin Pocket); and to the south by Brisbane Road, the city's main arterial link to the Ipswich Motorway.

A small set of shops on Jacaranda Street provides basic services, while several restaurants line Brisbane Road.
