One of the most beautiful shopping malls in Gold Coast. It offers a great variety of stores, including well-known brands, and a large food court. Easy access and plenty of parking. It also has a lovely outdoor area. I highly recommend it!

Such a fun shopping centre. Very pretty and has lots of shops to explore. There is a good variety of shops inside and the food court has great food. The atmosphere is great and the security is always walking around making sure everyone is safe. There is a valet parking with cool cars.

Some high end, middle and low end price stores here. Brands galore, heaps of friendly workers and some cool water features. Plenty of places to eat as well.

Rainy days hit while we were in the Gold Coast, forcing us indoors to Pacific Fair to keep us busy. We went the movies at Event Cinemas and had lunch at Sushi Jiro, where robot trains zipped fresh sushi rolls straight to our table - our son loves that restaurant. This place is easily the Australia's biggest shopping centre, like a Westfield Bondi Junction pumped up on steroids with indoor and outdoor areas. They have everything from everyday essentials, to upscale European stores. It's a pretty cool shopping centre if you keen to walk around.

What a night. The atmosphere is set pretty much as you get there. The staff, entertaining you as you wait. All so very friendly. I know I got there extremely early, but the wait didn’t feel long at all. The ghost train ruled. The drinks ruled. Our lovely hostess Buttons RULED! Looking after me and my dietary requirements. The food was fantastic. As was the show. A show I highly recommend going to

An amazing experience! I went there on my birthday on Wednesday the 8th of October and it was incredible! The performers were next level and especially loved the singers and the band! My host was great as well and nothing was an issue for him. The food was to die for (maybe that's the point? 😉) And Amber you blew the house away with your amazing voice! Come to Dracula's it may or may not break the bank (blood bank that is 🩸🩸🩸) 😀🧛‍♂️

I came along without really knowing what it was or what to expect and my friends didn’t either ( oopsi), so it was a full discovery for us. Honestly, it turned out to be one of my favourite experience here! (If I’d known how great it’d be, I would’ve grabbed way more souvenirs to take back to France 😭). From start to finish, I’ve got nothing bad to say ! The vibe was awesome, the food ( just the gnocchi wasn't really my thing, but to be honest I can't judge it...I've never being into it anyway ) drinks were tasty, the show was captivating, the performers and musicians were seriously talented and the staff were just so lovely and genuinely into what they were doing . ( I’ve done my time as a waitress, and I would’ve bloody loved working in a place like that ) P.S. Huge thanks to you, Morg! 💜

We had an amazing night at draculas. The food was great, the service was fantastic and the blood bags and skull bowls were a fun and exciting touch. The show and performances were so incredible. From the moment we lined up outside our fun and excitement began. Special shout out to the vamp in our photos who stayed in character, scaring the crap out of us for most of the night in the most unexpected ways, really made our night exciting. Also special shout out to our vamp waitress Scorpio, you were amazing also. Thank you so much for a great night out 🫶

Food and drinks were amazing! All the staff were just as fantastic. Our only reservation was the drinks didn’t come quick enough, would recommend ordering your next when the first arrives! We laughed the whole time we were there as entertainment was so good! Also, don’t miss out on the spooky encounter in bathroom 😂
Tammy P — Google review
The food and the wait staff are the best thing about this place… we paid $160p/p and all I can say is I hope the wait staff and kitchen got most of this. It was probably the worst stage production I have been to, extremely amateur like, such a shame as the entrance and the wait staff are awesome, the shows starts and you expect more vampire drama and receive a very pantomime style production. The acrobatics were very good, but they spent an hour showing all the guests (and I mean everyone who arrived) on the ghost train getting a fright, like I didn’t come here to see the guests, leave this out and add more production… that was super weird - they were just trying to sell pictures. 🤦‍♀️ I would not go back, it’s was very disappointing.

Surf lifesaving club
Nestled along the stunning coastline of Burleigh Heads, the North Burleigh Surf Life Saving Supporters Club is a must-visit destination for both locals and travelers. This historical club not only offers a fantastic spot to soak in breathtaking views but also serves up delicious food and refreshing drinks at its beachfront kiosk. Whether you're looking to enjoy a casual meal or unwind with friends at the Rangirangdoo Sports Bar, this venue provides an inviting atmosphere perfect for relaxation after a day spent on the beach.
North Burleigh Surf Club – A Must-Visit for Great Food & Friendly Service During our recent stay nearby, my family and I had the pleasure of dining at North Burleigh Surf Club on both Wednesday and Thursday night, and I can confidently say this club is a hidden gem for locals and visitors alike. Wednesday – Steak Night: For an unbeatable $15.50 members’ price, we enjoyed a 200g rump steak, served with crispy chips, fresh salad, and our choice of sauce. The steak was cooked to perfection—tender, juicy, and packed with flavour. Thursday – Chicken Schnitzel Special: Thursday’s special featured a golden-crusted chicken schnitzel, served with chips and salad, all for a reasonable $17.50 members’ price. A hearty, satisfying meal that didn’t disappoint. What made both nights even more enjoyable was the exceptional service. Despite the club being fully booked, Joel went out of his way to find us a table and quickly cleared it for us. His attentiveness and dedication did not go unnoticed. Danielle at the cashier was also a standout—polite, helpful, and efficient. The newly renovated bar area looks fantastic, giving the space a fresh, modern feel while still maintaining the club’s welcoming atmosphere. Plus, there’s plenty of parking available, making access super convenient for members and visitors. With such an affordable membership at just $5 per year, this club offers incredible value, delicious food, and a friendly environment. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by. We’ll certainly be back next time we visit!

North Burleigh RSL is a fantastic spot located right next to the Miami beach, making it a great place to unwind and enjoy the coastal vibe. The atmosphere is lively, with a crowd that clearly loves this venue. I had the classic schnitzel, and it didn’t disappoint! The meat was cooked perfectly—tender and juicy—with a wonderfully crispy coating. The chips were beautifully cooked, but the mushroom sauce could use a bit more flavor. Service was quick and consistent, which made the experience even better. There's also a café attached to the pub that serves excellent coffee and delightful pastries during the day. Overall, it's a great place to visit for a meal or just to relax with a coffee and pastry by the beach. Highly recommend!

You order and pay for the foods at the counter near the front door and drinks at the bar saying HARD FIZZ, which does also sell soft drinks like Coke, and Lemonade ($5) etc. 250g Rump ($32.5): It’s served with chips, salad, and choose a sauce and doneness for your steak. Medium well is quite tender and delicious for rump steak but might also be a little overcooked since there could be bitter burnt crisps. On the other hand, dipping the steak into the pepper sauce or salt is even tastier. The chips are well-seasoned, salty, relatively crispy, and flat. To sum up, the beachfront view out there is clear and beautiful but not as spectacular as in Burleigh Heads. The service speed and attitude are both great but the mobile phone reception is poor and there are flies flying around, which is kinda disturbing but I believe it can be improved. The prices are also reasonable for its portions of foods. You can come here by G link tram to Broadbeach South, transfer for 700 or 777 bus to get off at Christine Ave, and walk for a few minutes. Overall, it’s a 8.5 out of 10!

Guys you need to change chef!! We have been coming here for years and the last few times the food has been shocking. Schnitzel was frozen and watery. Mouthful of water every bite! Sauces were so watered down! Steak was chewy! Great venue great atmosphere terrible food! Come on guys the food use to be amazing!!!
DEB P — Google review
The meals received are not as written on the menu. Apparently there is a new Chef. The Spicy S&P calamari comes with a mixed leaf salad with a vinaigrette dressing not Wombok salad with Asian dressing. The kids platter is supposed to be gluten free but comes with chips and marinated chicken, but missing the fruit & veg. The food is cooked fine, they just go a bit rouge so you don’t know what you are going to get. Apparently there is a new chef, he definitely needs to take some time to learn the menu or change the menu to reflect what you are going to get. The last 2 weeks in a row we have received the wrong ingredients.

Very disappointed with the experience at North Burleigh this time! Have been going to this venue for years and always enjoyed the food. This time was far from what we would have expected! On arrival I had to get bar staff to clean down a recently vacated table. That’s fine but the look from the staff member was as if I was inconveniencing her day! The adjacent table had 2 meals partly eaten and left there. With the beef burger only having several mouthfuls taken from it with the remainder left behind, warning signs I think! Any way five people in our group all ordered together 2 X Tacos and 2 X Burgers and 1 Calamari with Wombok salad with crispy noodles. The Tacos and Burgers turned up within 20 minutes of ordering. 20 minutes later still no Calamari salad. Questioned wait staff about this and then about 10 minutes later the meal finally turns up. But the salad was not Wombok and the noodles were far from crispy! The salad was mixed lettuce salad and I’m not sure what happened to the noodles but but they were tough and dry and inedible! Wait staff were informed and offered to replace the meal. But considering the rest of the group had already finished their meals I decided to eat the Calamari and some of the salad rather than wait for another half an hour not knowing what quality of meal I would receive. Wait staff were understanding and said that I would receive a refund on my meal which was probably the best outcome. Have been a member here now for about 5 years and unfortunately will not be returning as have found other venues close by that offer a far better experience. Edit: the upgrade of the Club is magnificent and the food is impressive! Glad we decided to go back 😉😋 couldn’t fault the meals we ordered and large portions!

We had father's day lunch at Sandfire...upstairs...we had amazing views of the beach....they even turned on an amazing whale watching experience. Sarah, the restaurant manager, was amazing. A real asset to the business...she knew the menu, she knew local info, she made us feel like we were the most important people in the room. 10/10 would recommend great food, fabulous service, utterly beautiful views Can't wait to try the new season menu.

Really nice place! Sometimes we don’t come here because it’s always so busy, but we went again this Sunday and it wasn’t too crowded. The service was fast, even though there was a line to order, it moved quickly. Staff were friendly and super attentive, constantly cleaning tables, and one even helped us find a table a bit away from other dogs (we were there with three!). The coffee was great, and oh my gosh — the danish with ice cream, pistachio and Nutella was amazing! Absolutely loved it.

Had the most amazing experience here. Busy but not crowded as there are lots of spaces to sit. They have streamlined it so it is efficient, pre made juices and ordering is quick. We didn't have to wait long to be delivered the best breakfast I've had out...ever! Highly recommend the toad in a hole, I was sceptical about the additional of sambal sauce but it absolutely elevates it, along with goats cheese too!! The whole table were happy with their meals and juices were delicious too. Can't wait to go back!

Beautiful Cafe! The purple toast was delicious and the iced latte was wonderful. The biscoff milkshake was insane!!! Get in early on a weekend for the best pick of the seats as it was filling up a lot by about 9am. Good bathroom facilities. Next time I want to try the creme Broulee donut!

Out of all the cafés I’ve tried, this one truly stands out as one of the best. From the moment you walk in, the service is warm, fast, and incredibly efficient – perfect whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or settling in for a relaxing break. Every dish we tried was absolutely delicious, but it’s the bread that really stole the show – perfectly fluffy on the inside, with that crisp, golden crunch on the outside. You can tell it’s baked fresh and made with care. The coffee here also deserves a shout-out: bold, smooth, and beautifully made. It’s on the pricier side, but the quality more than justifies it. The place is popular for good reason, so it can get quite busy – especially on weekends – but the lively atmosphere just adds to its charm. Despite the crowds, I’d happily come back again. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, this café is well worth a spot on your must-try list.

I’m just in LOVE with this place. The venue and garden make you nearly feel like you’ve escaped to the countryside far away from stress. If you avoid peak hours (it does get very busy), grab a book, find a quiet spot and you’ll never want to leave. It’s so peaceful. I’m vegan, and even though there aren’t many vegan options, I’m really satisfied with what’s available. The vegan XO mushrooms meal is exquisite! The textures and flavors are just perfect, honestly. The vegan macadamia slice is my guilty pleasure.. Oupsi 👀

Paddock’s Bake is a must-visit for pastry lovers! I couldn’t stop raving about their pastries when I returned to Melbourne. I’m excited to have tried their crème brûlée donut. Their pastries are expertly crafted and not overly sweet. We also tried the hot pie with truffle mushroom chicken, which was delicious. Pairing the pastries with their Single O beans made for a perfect breakfast. The place is spacious and has plenty of seating options. Just be sure to secure your table before ordering. I’ll definitely be back when I’m in the city centre.

I got food poisoning! I don’t usually write reviews, but I feel I should in this case. Came here last night, the staff here were very sweet and welcoming, but unfortunately I ended up with food poisoning after ordering the crab and corn soup along with the prawn and pork dumplings. These were the only dishes I had that my family didn’t, and I was very sick afterwards. I shouldn’t be getting sick from the food being served. It’s really put me off returning. On top of that, the prices are too high for what you actually get, so overall I can’t recommend this place despite the lovely staff.

The best ramen I've had in Gold Coast! The Miso Spicy Men is just $18.50 but the portion is generous, especially when you can add extra ramen for most of the time! The soup’s spiciness is just right, it is spicy but is still in your acceptable range, and the pork and seaweed are fresh. Everything together is a perfect match! Well done!

⭐️ Parents, think twice before bringing your kids here. We went as four adults with a 2-year-old toddler, hoping for a simple meal, and it turned into one of the most stressful experiences ever. First, we were told we couldn’t sit until we ordered — imagine trying to hold a wriggly toddler and being told “no seats” while figuring out the restaurant. Even worse, we had finally sat down, and the staff asked us to leave. It felt outright insulting. Their English is very poor, so we could barely understand the confusing rules. The seating system makes zero sense: adults were shuffled to the low kiddie tables, while the toddler area we actually needed was off-limits. No high chair, no assistance, no flexibility — completely unhelpful for families. In the end, we had to sit in the food court area, with meals served in cheap takeaway boxes. It even felt like the portions had been reduced, probably to save money. A meal that should have been relaxed and family-friendly turned into stressful, exhausting, and humiliating. ❌ Baby/toddler unfriendly ❌ Poor communication ❌ Illogical seating ❌ Not worth your money If you’ve got kids, just don’t come here.

I think we were served by the manager? Can’t be sure because we didn’t ask but she was lovely, I was about to use a tissue to cover my shirt and she handed me the bib/apron (I was wearing white on white 🤣 and eating spicy), mid rush they were very busy, even so the food came out very quickly and without any loss of quality ❤️ did not disappoint, will be back next time I’m craving ramen 🤤

I had the spicy miso-men - very friendly staff, the place was busy for lunch on Saturday - they gave me a very tasty pickle. Really enjoyed my meal! Perfect portion size for me - recommend them!

Always delicious Ramen with a very friendly and caring staff especially Harumi who sends out dishes fast, fresh and always with a smile. I bring my 5 year old here after dance each Saturday and she loves the extra free bowl of noodles I get with my Ramen. She will now only eat with chopsticks here. This is my favorite place to dine at Pacific Fair. They even do takeout if you are in a hurry. Definitely stop in for a delicious Ramen and Dumplings meal when next at Pacific Fair Broadbeach.

Cafe
Common Ground, located at 2/2 Hibiscus Haven in Burleigh Heads, has become a popular destination for locals and visitors alike. With its refreshing juices, almond iced lattes, and delectable acai bowls served in coconut shells, it's the perfect place to start your day. The outdoor seating area provides ample space to relax with friends and even furry companions. The cafe exudes a charming ambiance with exposed wood decor and vibrant greenery.
Went here last month at the end of our Holiday, service and food exceptional. Servings extremely generous and the gentleman out the back went above and beyond to look after us. We even got free doughnuts!!
Chris M — Google review
Standard mushrooms, couldn’t taste the truffle, poached eggs were cooked, bread wasn’t toasted (soggy& hard), in-house smoked salmon was dry & bit tasteless. Coffee tasted slightly burnt. Other dishes: - halloumi chicken burger felt healthy - unicorn pancake too sweet Service was okay. Great location tucked in a bush in between 2 popular cafes (Paddock & Palm Springs). Overall decent but wished they improved on the flavor profile for each meal.

Really enjoyed our breakfast at Common Ground. The cafe was very quiet on the Saturday morning. Down the road at Paddock was super busy but we honestly found the food to be better here at Common Ground. The staff were very friendly and the chef was engaging with us directly. The food was good and service was quick. Would highly recommend giving Common Ground a try

I’ve been here a hand full of times but no where near as frequently as this place deserves! The food is always on point, and I think the pricing is really affordable for the quality you’re getting! Went for a coffee and breakfast, got given a little cinnamon donut with my coffee for free, and the cook came out and double checked I didn’t want any extras with my meal (free of charge since I’d already paid). Super generous and great service, the space is beautiful as well, light and airy and open.

Common Grounds is a hidden gem for anyone seeking a peaceful and stylish escape from the Gold Coast hustle. If you're looking for a cafe with a serene and quiet atmosphere, this is your spot. The cafe has a modern rustic theme that is both charming and calming, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. What truly makes Common Grounds special is its exceptional coffee and delightful touches. The extra strong flat white with skinny milk was absolutely stupendous, but the real star of the show was the tiny doughnut on top of the coffee. This cute little twist brought so much joy, and eating it in one bite was a delightful moment. The staff is lovely and the vibe is welcoming, making you feel right at home. It's the kind of place you almost don't want to tell people about so it can stay your little secret. 🤫 If you're a coffee lover looking for a cozy spot with an adorable surprise, you must try Common Grounds. It's an absolute must-visit! Check out my insta alexa.janoschka for more coffee fun and adventures ☕️

Moo Moo The Wine Bar + Grill is a modern steak restaurant with a stunning interior featuring natural stone finishes, sleek organic curves, and state-of-the-art lighting. It's an ideal spot for various occasions, whether it's a date night, girl's night out, or dinner with friends. The restaurant offers an extensive list of wines and signature steaks cooked over coal and wood for maximum flavor.
the best choice for our anniversary dinner. we had heard only good things about moo moo and finally decided to make a booking, and it definitely won’t be the last time! my partner is a chef at a fine dining restaurant so he can be a little hard to please, but he enjoyed every bite. the atmosphere was beautiful, music at the perfect volume so one doesn’t have to shout to have a conversation, and the service was quite good. extensive wine and spirits list, which was much appreciated. also loved the open kitchen and the touch of previous chefs adding their knives to the wall inside. i’ll definitely return and bring family along for the experience next time.

We had dinner at Moo Moo Restaurant as a group of seven on Wednesday night. This beautiful steakhouse is conveniently located by the park, offering seating areas both inside and outside, as well as at the bar where you can enjoy drinks and snacks from the bar menu. We started with a few appetisers to share, followed by our main courses and side dishes. For mains, we ordered various types of steaks, while I opted for the Coral Trout. Unfortunately, I didn’t particularly enjoy the texture of the fish; it was a bit rubbery and slightly undercooked inside. However, it was served with rich and flavorful mashed potatoes. The scallops and calamari fritti were delicious, as well as the Bang Bang duck and grilled prawns. The steaks were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone, with no complaints. The wine list is outstanding, offering plenty of options to choose from, and the glassware is beautiful. Our waiter was engaging, proactive, and knowledgeable, ensuring we were well taken care of throughout the evening. The atmosphere was both inviting and energetic, featuring dimmed lighting and an open kitchen where you can see the food being prepared. It does get reasonably loud, but it’s still easy to have a conversation at the table. I would definitely recommend Moo Moo for lunch, dinner, or drinks at the bar—it's a fantastic venue in Broadbeach. Thank you. May 2025

This was my first time trying the Broadbeach location and it was really good. Service was outstanding. Scallops were tasty. Steak was cooked perfectly. Flavour of the Mac and cheese was good although the bacon in it was chewy and raw so l'd avoid that.

We visited Moo Moo recently and honestly found it a bit underwhelming for the price and reputation. We started with the Stone Baked Potato Bread , nice presentation but nothing special. The Bone Marrow Croquettes were the standout of the night, really tasty with the black garlic and smoked eggplant. Unfortunately, the rest of the dishes didn’t quite hit the mark. The Truffle Fries were way too salty, and the Tempura Onion Rings were doughy and lacked seasoning (though the pickled garlic toum that came with it was great). The Leaf Salad with ricotta and pear was just okay. For mains, we ordered two steaks: the F1 Wagyu Rostbiff (MB6+) and the Little Joe’s T-Bone (MB4+). Both were decent in flavour but had no char or crust they felt more like pub steaks than what you’d expect from a high-end steakhouse. The T-bone, in particular, was tough and hard to cut. Drinks were fine, and the complimentary steak tartare was surprisingly good probably one of the better things we had. Sauces that came with the steaks were also pretty average. Overall, a nice venue but the food didn’t live up to the hype. For the price, we expected a much better experience and some real grill flavour on the steaks.
Naif F — Google review
What an amazing experience I had here. I absolutely loved it. The food was top tier and the service was exceptional. The waitstaff explained the steak options in detail, which made choosing a lot more interesting and much easier. What I ordered: F4 Wagyu Rib/Scotch Fillet MB 8–9+ (H) Rib on Bone (OP Rib) MB 3+ (H) Fries, sautéed mushrooms, sautéed greens, and crème brûlée. Everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavour. I genuinely can’t wait to come back. If you’re on the Gold Coast, this is definitely a must visit spot. Easy 10/10! 🖤

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We absolutely love dining at Moo Moo The Wine Bar + Grill Broadbeach – they never disappoint! The service is always exceptional, and the staff go above and beyond to make every visit special. We came here to celebrate a birthday, and the team made it such a memorable night with their thoughtful touches and genuine hospitality. The food was absolutely divine – fresh, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. The prawns were full of flavour, the sides were spot on (crispy potatoes, onion rings, and perfectly cooked greens), and the cocktails were fantastic. But the real highlight was the rib eye on the bone – perfectly cooked, melt-in-your-mouth tender, and bursting with flavour. Compliments to the chef for an incredible meal! We finished with the most delicious dessert, and the personalised birthday plate was such a lovely gesture. It really made the celebration feel extra special. Moo Moo’s is truly one of the best dining experiences on the Gold Coast. From start to finish, everything was faultless. Highly recommended – we can’t wait to return!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Every year, I find myself drawn back to Moo Moo in Broadbeach to celebrate my birthday — it’s become more than a tradition, it’s a ritual of gratitude. There’s something magnetic about this place — the way the night hums with warmth, laughter, and the gentle glow of candlelight dancing across the plates. The food isn’t just cooked; it’s crafted with passion. Every bite feels like art, every moment soaked in celebration. Moo Moo captures the spirit of the Gold Coast — elegant, soulful, and unforgettable. 🌹🔥🥂

My dining experience at Moo Moo The Wine Bar + Grill was a mixed bag, with some definite highs and lows. The absolute standout of the night was the MB9 ribeye wagyu. It was an incredible cut of beef that genuinely melted in my mouth, bursting with rich, succulent flavor. It was cooked perfectly and was everything you'd want from a premium steak. The mac and cheese was another highlight. It was rich, creamy, and a truly satisfying side dish that complemented the main courses well. Unfortunately, the other dishes we tried didn't quite hit the mark. The pork belly was disappointingly dry, lacking the juicy, tender texture and though it had a crispy crackling. The beef rib, while a decent piece of meat, lacked a distinct flair or flavor that would make it memorable. It was a bit forgettable compared to the spectacular wagyu. Also the 45 minute wait for food was a bit much for me. Overall, Moo Moo is a must-visit for steak lovers, especially for their top-tier wagyu, which lives up to its reputation.

For day 2, we bundled attractions like Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary and David Fleay Wildlife Park and other places within a close range, so that the time it takes to travel between all of them is less than one hour. Combined with the average time people spend there, your day should take about 8 hours.

Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is a popular Australian wildlife adventure located on over 25 hectares of natural eucalypt and rainforest. The sanctuary offers a chance to interact with native birds, marsupials, and reptiles, including hand-feeding wild lorikeets and kangaroos. Visitors can also walk a wombat, meet a dingo, or cuddle a koala.
The most amazing place, a must visit if you are in the area. We travelled from surfers paradise, easy to get to from broadbeach on the 700 bus which stops closeby to the sanctuary. The place is very well kept and spacious and so much to explore, paid $50 per ticket as there was an offer on the official website (usually $70). So many beautiful animals to see and the staff were great, telling us about the animals and went out of their way to take us to find a baby kangaroo as I asked if there were any around. Had the best day here 🐨

We had such a wonderful time at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary! The lorikeet feeding was absolutely amazing such a joyful and colourful experience. The free flight bird show was another highlight it was incredible to watch these beautiful birds soar gracefully above the audience and see them up close. We also had the chance to see and take photos with a python, kangaroo and koala up close was both exciting and memorable. The wildlife talks were engaging and informative, and the Aboriginal culture show was beautifully presented and full of meaning. The only downside was the limited vegan food options at the cafés, so it would be great to see a bit more variety in the future. Overall, a fantastic place to visit for all ages educational, fun, and full of opportunities to connect with nature and animals up close!

Fabulous experience as always here. This was my third time visiting the sanctuary with some of our friends visiting from Europe. With so much to see and do here I suggest newcomers set aside roughly 5 hours to see everything the park has on offer. From visiting the reptile enclosure, to patting the kangaroos and getting up close with the koalas. There's something for everyone here. The day is well planned out on the map with several key shows in the afternoon including the wild bird display, aboriginal performance group & finishing up with lorikeet feeding right before closing time. Right now parking is also free across the road. Highly recommend to everyone ❤️

Tickets were expensive but worth it for the NFP and animals. The animals were well cared for and their enclosures were spacious. Happy to see all animals have access to a no people/viewing area. The free bird show was breathtaking. Only wish there were more trains/directions of said train, more drink refill stations, and clearer signage.

Great place. Loved the wild lizards. The bird show was wonderful. The train was a highlight. Feeding the lorikeets was also a favourite. I have to thank the staff who helped tremendously when my autistic son had a meltdown and put himself in danger. They were exceptional, compassionate and understanding. While we had to leave abruptly because he wasn't coping, we left feeling like it was a wonderful experience and we definitely would come back.
Frances S — Google review
Great day out with the family, but definitely some concerns with animal ethics. Birds trained like it's a Disney exhibit and photoshoots with Koala's available. Plus small exhibit areas for some animals, like the salt water crocodile. Also not enough supervision around the kangaroos, with hoards of kids coming in at once and getting near the faces of the roo's. Having said that, all the animal handlers and carers seemed to love what they did and seemed really passionate about conservation. I'd like to see more signs/information about why certain animals are there, especially if they're being rehabbed before re-release. Otherwise it seems more like a well-run zoo than a sanctuary.
Josh G — Google review
An amazing wildlife sanctuary. Super friendly staff, loved the lorikeets and kangaroos. You’re allowed to feed both and pet the kangaroos! Had an echidna encounter with a very informative staff member, it was awesome. So much to see and do here. Recommend to anyone who’s coming to see the Gold Coast. Buy tickets before and show up 30 minutes early (8:30am) for the lorikeet feeding, make sure to put in a donation for their efforts and all the animals!

Perfect place for families with young kids. Lots of activities including shows, animals, play equipment, even a miniature train Ryde through the park. Id recommend bringing your own food if you want something other than the typical fried food and icecream.

David Fleay Wildlife Park, nestled in the tranquil Burleigh Heads area of the Gold Coast, is a charming destination for wildlife enthusiasts. Established by renowned naturalist David Fleay in 1952, this heritage park emphasizes animal conservation and creating natural habitats. Visitors can explore lush rainforests and wetlands while observing an impressive variety of native species such as crocodiles, wallabies, koalas, and even the elusive platypus named Wally.
Purchased a Father's Day buffet and entrance package and was not disappointed. Such a beautiful hidden pocket- well maintained and preserved park. Although not as big as other parks attended, the surroundings and walk around the facility was serene and clean. Small but mighty!

The park is quite small. Some areas are still recovering from cyclone Alfred. There were not too many animals... 2h will be more than enough to see everything, including attending some of the daily talks. It's not possible to feed the Kangaroos 🦘, but depending on the time of the day you go, you might see the park carers doing so. It's quite cute to see them eating sweet potato 😊 Friendly staff members who will be happy to answer any questions you might have. I visited the park on a Wednesday. It was quite quiet, which was pretty pleasant. Hope you have an enjoyable day 🐨🦘🤗

Close to Currumbin wildlife park this is a Park with a lot of history. Returning after 25 years, the park has detoriated from its earlier years. This historic park needs to be spruced up especially with the pot hole road access and the cafe and more wildlife related activities. The cafe is average . Besides vegetation options ( has only 1 ), needs better menu. The quality of what they serve is fine

My mate Dan and I had a great tour with Jenna. Enjoy a wholesome, altruistic Australian wildlife experience where you can learn how what we do at home and when travelling impacts native animals and our precious Australian biosphere. Who gives this wonderful space one star? It's a conservation and rescue space for wildlife, not a hugging zoo. You shouldn't assume you can hug the animals in advance as it may not be safe or healthy for the animals or the visitors. $27 is not expensive. We paid extra to help the cute bundles of joy at Fleay's. For those who reckon you couldn't see anything check out my awesome new desktop wallpaper. Yes Jenna, you're a chatterbox, but we loved every bit.

JFK Woodfire Kitchen & Bar is a popular spot known for its delicious wood-fired pizzas and gourmet delights. The enticing aroma from the open kitchen and crackling wood-fired oven create a welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant offers gluten-free options, including gourmet BBQ chicken, wood-roasted pork belly with pineapple and feta, and classic buffalo mozzarella pizzas.

Absolutely gobsmacked, quality of food and staff is poor. Your one head of house is running around doing absolutely everything from ordering to making coffees and everything in between and her personality/attitude could be brighter. Establishment needs a massive over haul for the prices people are paying. Wouldn’t go back and wouldn’t recommend. Felt like it was a kindergarten with the kids all running around. The original JKF died and this isn’t far behind.

JFK Woodfire Kitchen & Bar has become our date night hang out. Friendly staff, and a delicious menu - which in my opinion is very reasonably priced, Each time I go, I fall in love with the romantic vibe, set amongst leafy green foliage and thousands of fairy lights. The only thing I would change, is that they become available to order through online food delivery platforms for the days I am unable to go in person. If you are looking for a hidden gem, you will not be disappointed with JFK.
