Best Cafés, Bars & Eateries in Nobby Beach

Nobby Beach

Updated: Jun 18, 2026

Nobby Beach is tucked in between Miami to the south and Mermaid Beach to the north but it is the stand-out spot for café culture, rooftop bars, and trendy new eateries on the Gold Coast. Rising like a phoenix from the ashes of the 2016 fire that levelled much of its food strip, Nobbys is again stealing the attention of coffee connoisseurs, fancy foodies and discerning diners alike.
