Play Pokies at The Grand Hotel in Labrador

hotel has accommodation, bar, outdoor areas, gambling and two restaurants. We spent our time in the main bar. Seating was mainly raised tables and stools. We consumed bar food from the menu. Basic but it was good. Beer was cold. Limited range for wine but everyone was happy. bar service was excellent. Good time had by all. Prices were reasonable.

We dined as a group of 7 people and each ordered a different meal. All 3 of our steaks were over cooked. We ordered medium rare but they came out medium-well (not the end of the world but dissapointing). The entree garlic bread was a garlic pizza but it was ok. The chicken quesidilla was ordered without beans but somehow that wasn\'t communicated to the chef. It was also brought out well after all the other meals, I had almost finished my 400g rump by the time the quesidilla was served. They did forego our softdrink bill as a gesture of apology for the late service. The person who ordered the Korean Chicken pizza said it was good. The menu has a larger selection of meals than most restaurants and the food is reasonably priced. Overall, I would consider the experience slightly below average compared to other restaurants I have been to on the Gold Coast.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had an absolutely fantastic dinner at the Grand hotel in Labrador, and it deserves every one of these five stars. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was perfect .... ocean views, pelicans gliding by, a gentle breeze, and great background music that set a relaxed, coastal vibe without being too loud. ✨🤩✨

A special shoutout to the lovely lady behind the bar with the copper hair 🧡 she was honestly amazing. So friendly, welcoming, and genuinely warm. She made us the best frozen mango margaritas (seriously next-level!) and poured a couple of perfectly chilled Eskimo beers that were super refreshing on a warm evening 😋😋😋

For dinner, we had the 400g steak with chips and salad for $38 each , and it was incredible value. The portion was huge, a real 400g steak, and it was cooked to absolute perfection 🤤 We ordered medium, and it came out exactly medium. I had the garlic sauce, my partner had the pepper sauce, and both were delicious and full of flavour. The chips were crispy, the salad was fresh, and everything was served in a timely and friendly way.

All in all, such a wonderful dining experience .... great service, amazing drinks, delicious food, and the perfect Gold Coast setting. We'll definitely be back. Five stars! ✨🌴🍹

A go to for locals...pretty good pub grub we really love the location & frequent this venue when in the area...theres usually a nice breeze...as there is only street parking that can be a bit tricky during busy periods
We recommend a visit when in the area

Attended for dinner with friends for the first time, lovely atmosphere and food servings were large for price, couldn't finish my meal. Staff were lovely but very busy. Wasn't impressed with position of pay counter! As I finished paying I turned to leave and a waiter carrying full plates of food was coming through at the same time, high traffic doorway was dangerous. Also a friend turned to leave after paying and his foot was caught under a mat, luckily he realised and didn't fall. We were going to stay for the band but they started a bit later so missed them, Otherwise great night.
