At a glance
La Playa Beach and Eats is a seaside restaurant and bar in the Paradise Centre at 2 Cavill Avenue, Surfers Paradise. Positioned metres from the shoreline, the venue brings a relaxed coastal character to the Gold Coast, with a setting suited to casual meals, evening drinks and occasions that move from daytime into night.
The menu is shaped by modern Australian and Mediterranean influences. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are available, along with drinks, making La Playa an option for an early meal, a daytime stop or an evening visit. A dedicated breakfast menu and an all-day menu provide the main dining formats, while the drinks offering includes cocktails.
La Playa’s atmosphere remains relaxed throughout the day and becomes more animated as the sun goes down. The combination of beachside surroundings, food and bar service gives the venue a holiday-like feel without limiting it to one type of visit. It can suit a breakfast gathering, a leisurely lunch, dinner by the water or drinks in the evening.
The seaside location also makes the venue a practical choice for visitors spending time around Surfers Paradise. Its position within Paradise Centre places dining close to the shoreline and the Cavill Avenue precinct. The venue is open seven days, from 7 am until late, supporting both early starts and later evening plans.
Parking is available in the Paradise Centre car park, accessed from Hanlan Street. The facility uses number-plate recognition, with payment made at a station before departure. Chevron Renaissance car park is another option, located about a five-minute walk away and offering two hours of free parking per day. Access to that car park is via the Gold Coast Highway or Elkhorn Avenue.
La Playa Beach and Eats suits diners looking for a coastal restaurant with an all-day schedule, a relaxed atmosphere and a menu that combines Australian and Mediterranean influences.
