With plenty of food and drink options and things to do for children it was a good experienceWritten 7 July 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

With plenty of shade amongst the trees, there is a lake, plenty of birdlife (such as peacocks), a play area, picnic tables, all in a peaceful and tranquil location just a short walk from the hustle and bustle of Main Beach and Surfers Paradise. A wonderful place to escape the crowds for an hour or two.Written 3 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TommoMelbourne, Australia49,407 contributionsThis shopping centre has been fully renovated and is much improved from the past.
Its the largest and most well known mall in Surfers Paradise.
As a child I use to visit to play games ion the amusement centre.
There appears to have been an addition with some new tenants like El Camino Mexican, Thai Restaurant, and ice cream shops and more.
On the first floor where the eateries are located you get great views of Surfers Paradise Beach.Written 18 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Went this morning, and there were crowds of people.
Fantastic to see people supporting the local farmers.
Food was well priced, however, the size of fruit and veges has gone down, perhaps with all the inclement weather.
However, Everyone, get down there and support our locals.Written 16 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

This is not the case here. If you want you can go straight to the jewels, or you could have a walk around the outside of the shop and learn a lot about opals.Written 20 May 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Aisling4 contributionsWe booked the grazing brunch. The food menu appeared nice and parts of it were. The squid and chips were served slightly cold which was disappointin and likely nice if they had been warm. Bread platter was nice. We were Asked about drinks every 30 minutes but it could take another 20 minutes to actually get your drink (sometimes we had to request twice). Overall staff were friendly but the system seemed chaotic and when questions were asked the waiting staff assured us they would find out but never actually returned to tell us the answer.
I hope we can return when it’s a bit more organised and with warmer food.Written 1 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
