Great views overlooking Burleigh surf beach from the first floor balcony to enjoy a drink and a meal. Despite a minor incident experienced 2 weeks previously (see below), we returned for lunch and was immediately recognised and greeted by Lachie (manager) which was a pleasant surprise. Despite the many customers utilising this popular venue, we experienced exceptional service and enjoyed a drink or two and a delicious meal. I subsequently changed the service rating from 2 stars to 5 stars as a result. Well deserved. Thank you. 2 weeks previous - waited 45 minutes for food despite many tables around us receiving their food despite arriving before us. After 2 follow ups, we received our food with 2 different excuses from 2 different staff members. We discussed the incident with management who listened, apologised, and offered generous compensation in the form of a voucher. They handled the situation exceptionally well to an extent that we will be returning customers.

LOVED our visit to the Burleigh surf club yesterday! No booking but welcomed us in, so friendly & were seated straight away. Staff jumped into action and helped when my son knocked his juice over, so helpful and the vege food was delicious!! Multiple options!! Plus the beautiful view. Filled our cups! Highly recommend, and can’t wait to visit again soon (Sadly photos are taken half way through the meal as all looked so yummy we just had to dig straight in, but fresh and loaded with goodness).

There is also a tiny entrance to the restaurant from the beachside with a sign next to Ben & Jerry’s. In addition, you order foods at the counter and drinks at the bar just right next to it. Seafood Woodfired Pizza ($30): Thank the chef for not putting the sauce that contains onions and garlics and he said all pizzas are based on that sauce. As a result, without that sauce, the pizza is absolutely delicious and I love how soft the pizza itself is and the mozzarella also has a unique texture. Most importantly, the best part is when you eat all kinds of seafood with the capsicums. Besides, if you don’t drink alcohols. they also have soft drinks like lemon squash, pink lemonade, Pepsi etc at around $4.5 in a glass. Unfortunately, restaurant gets relatively bustling at Sunday noon and all the window tables are occupied when I try to get one. It’s considerate of the cashier that you can switch your order or customise your food if you are allergic to something in your food. The bartender is also friendly and agile enough to deal with such long queue in a short period of time. To top it off, excellent service, outstanding food, great scenery, slightly high prices but absolutely worth a visit, 9.5 out of 10!

Great view of the beach and surf quick service 2 mains in 15 -20 mins at most wait even with venue full. Friendly helpful staff good seafood only reason not 5 was slightly dry fish all else was perfect.

I love this place for its open air view of the surf. I always stop in for a coldie on the verandah. If I can get a table at the front, the middle isn't so bad either. I liken it to Burleigh Pavilion without the pretentiousness.

We had a great meal and enjoyed the atmosphere. The food was delivered quickly and was very enjoyable. All staff members that we interacted with were friendly.
