Burly Bar is a gin bar and dining spot in the Warehouses precinct at Currumbin Waters on the Gold Coast. Come for cocktails built around Burly Gin’s cucumber, citrus and berry varieties, then share modern Australian plates in a low-lit lounge with New York-inspired styling. The menu is compact, with dishes such as beef tartare, kingfish and roast cauliflower with pickled grapes. Finish with the Jaffa espresso cocktail or a brownie. It suits a date, a small celebration or a relaxed catch-up over drinks and food.
A Currumbin bar built around gin
Burly Bar is the bar and cellar door for the local Burly Gin team, inside the Warehouses precinct on Currumbin Creek Road. Its drinks menu puts the distillery’s cucumber, citrus and berry gins at the centre, with cocktails grouped around those flavours before moving on to classic-style choices.
The bar’s gin focus gives you a useful way to browse: start with a flavour family, or ask the staff for a recommendation if you are unsure where to begin. The Jaffa espresso is one named cocktail to look for. The menu also includes inventive takes on familiar drinks, with gin used as the base.
Share plates and a small menu
Food is served as share plates, with a compact menu that changes through weekly specials. Beef tartare is served with a saltbush cracker, while roast cauliflower comes with pickled grapes. Kingfish, salmon and steak are other dishes to look for; a brownie is a sweet finish.
For two people, three small plates have been enough for a shared meal. If you have dietary needs, ask the team about suitable options. Gluten-free choices have been accommodated, though it is sensible to check what is available when you visit.
The room and when to go
The two-storey venue pairs New York lounge styling with a relaxed coastal setting. Its design draws on the Burly Gin bottles, and a resin bar anchors the room. Low-lit corners make it a natural choice for an evening drink or a small celebration, while the food and cocktail menus also work for a casual catch-up.
The bar opens in the afternoon and evening Tuesday to Friday, and from midday on Saturday. It is closed on Monday and Sunday. For a calmer setting, choose a weekday rather than the busier weekend period.
