Gold Coast Restaurant Guide where to eat and all the best spots

The Gold Coast has come a long way in the few past years and now boasts some of the best dining to be had in Queensland, from incredible Greek food to trendy cool cafes with great coffee. There are so many choices for dining out in all of the Gold Coast suburbs, particularly in Broadbeach; but also in Main Beach, Burleigh and Nobby’s Beach. Locals and tourists alike enjoy seeking out what’s new on Teddar Avenue, Orchid Avenue and Cavill Avenue. Each with their own feel, energy and atmosphere whether your’re looking for fine dining, fast food or fresh local produce.  Broadbeach has the atmosphere and almost a European feel as you walk the streets and choose from one of the many popular lunch spots or chic coffee houses along Surf Parade, or perhaps spoil yourself at one of the Gold Coast restaurants located within a 5 Star resort, such as Hilton, Marriott or Palazzo Versace. All are open to the public seven days a week. And don’t forget that fresh seafood is also popular at the Marina on the Gold Coast, with fresh fish offered year round.
