I was told it had been revamped since my last visit. Disappointed does not even touch the surface. Behind the bar staff were the only good thing about it. Food ordered was nothing like what is on the website. Fish and chips, usually you can't go wrong, but greasy dark brown batter was disgusting. Chips were like McDonald's fries.WTF. Schnitzel came out as a very dark brown tough piece of crumbed chicken. That's it no greens unless you order and pay extra for. Only specialty beers, one beer, one orange juice and one gin and tonic $27. Bottles of wine only cheapest being $40 for a house wine. Twice bitten now will never go back. ps: your tall male table staff Member is very rude.Hi Jenny, So sorry to hear you really did not have a great time with us here at Sandbar. Regarding the pricing, we really do have comparable if not cheaper prices than most of Surfers Paradise. If you were unhappy with the food at the time we would have been more than happy to cook you a replacement if you had of let us know. None-the-less we do apologise that you did not have a positive experience with us and will definitely take your feedback on board and let our kitchen and FOH teams know.Kind Regards,Sandbar Team

We love this place. If you get a window seat you can see the surf. The service is always great, very attentive even though it’s always packed. Book in advance if you don’t want to wait for a table. We ordered two mains and a started and still couldn’t eat it all. My son eats like a horse lol. Ribs (beef are my fav) are juice and tasty. Garlic prawns are lovely too. Although menu looks quite expensive these dishes are best shared. Love this place

We were looking for casual dining with a good atmosphere close to Surfers and found Fiddlers. Very happy we did. Great food, decent prices and pleasant staff made this a relaxed and enjoyable evening. The meals were a good size and the drinks well priced. Unfortunately we had to leave before the music started on this particular Friday night, but all agreed to go back and stay longer next time. With a pool table, live music, heaps of indoor and outdoor seating and a basic but “something for everyone“ menu, we highly recommend trying Fiddlers Green.

Ok, so we are here from NZ for 7 days to do Gold Coast, looking to watch the Super rugby finals while having dinner tonight. We checked and double checked that we could do this before we went in ( family of 4). We ordered food ( well over $250) and were not welcome stay for the duration of 80 min match! We were meant to leave halfway during the game when we finished eating! Very disappointing welcome, would not have been treated that way in NZ.

House of Brews

Reviewed By Aaron B

Would give 1 star but the staff was super nice. Food was awful. I got 10 wings. The "original" flavor is basically ketchup. The "Peri Peri" is ketchup with some pepper flakes. The beer paddle is WAY over priced. They essentially give 6 double shots of beer for $22. Then they say they give a "free mug of your favorite beer" which is a crock because the paddle is already way overpriced.
