Very hip and cool burger joint/wine bar. Even though they specialize in burgers, their chicken wings are awesome. Fine to take kids, but it gets busy on Friday and Saturday nights, so get in early. Open 7 nights. Pet friendly.

Good atmosphere, great bar food and plenty of beer and wine choices. Get there before 6pm for 50c chicken wings! Happy days. Kids ok, but Friday and Saturday nights are crazy busy. Better left for a weeknight visit.

While the Burleigh Surf Club itself is good for lunch or dinner, the kiosk underneath is a great place for breakfast or brunch. Nothing fancy, but the food is good and well priced. And you can't beat the view. Pet friendly.

Sightseeing

You won't find a better view of the Gold Coast than up the top of Q1. The elevator is ridiculously fast and there's a cafe/bar up the top where you can relax and take in the view.
