Nothing spices up a boring weekend quite like brunch. Not sure where to go? We’ve got you covered. Read on for the best brunch on the Gold Coast.
Hyde Paradiso, Surfers Paradise
We love Hyde Paradiso breakfast, lunch or dinner, but especially brunch. Their beachside brunch starts at $99 per person (perfect for special occasions) and serves Chandon, tap beer and a range of spritzes as part of their standard offering. For food, it’s benny hash, charred chicken and pork belly with focaccia pizza. YUM.
Miss Moneypenny’s, Broadbeach
Every Saturday and Sunday from midday, Miss Moneypenny’s famous Bottomless Brunch serves up a three-course menu and sparkling, beer and soft drinks. You can even upgrade your package to include cocktails and spritzers or French champagne.

Bam Bam Bakehouse, Mermaid Beach
You’ve no doubt frequented Bam Bam’s cabinets for takeaway treats, but pull up a chair and you’ll be treated to a delicious dine-in brunch. They’ve got everything from Nasi Goreng to halloumi cubes and BLTs.
Commune, Burleigh
Two things we look for in a great brunch spot: an all-day menu and a great drinks list. Commune in Burleigh has both. They don’t serve alcohol (which is not an essential brunch element) but they have just about everything else – coffee, juice, smoothies, tea, even cold drip.

The Tropic, Burleigh
For brunch with a view, you really can’t beat The Tropic. Situated inside the Burleigh Pav, The Tropic offers sprawling views all the way up the coastline. Paired with their brunch menu of burrata, oysters, tuna tartare and smoked salmon (to name a few) it’s bliss.
Ally Chow, Nobby
Looking for something a bit more exotic? Look no further than Ally Chow. If you’re happy to wait until a more traditiona lunchtime seating (i.e., from 12pm), they’ve got two banquet options that will be more than worth it. One has bottomless Thai basil caipiroskas, the other bottomless margs – need we say more?
The Collective, Palm Beach
What doesn’t The Collective do? They’ve got five kitchens in one restaurant, live music, function packages and an epic bottomless brunch. Such over-achievers. From 11am every Saturday and Sunday, tuck into a shared Greek mezze platter washed down with bottomless mimosas.
