A quick chat about Gold Coast sandwiches

If you’re wandering around Gold Coast craving a sandwich, don’t just settle for the first spot you see near Surfers Paradise,those tend to be a bit touristy and not always great. Instead, aim for spots in Burleigh Heads or Nobby Beach where sandwiches are treated like art. Paddock Bakery’s porchetta, for example, is a serious contender , slow-roasted meat married with punchy pickles and perfect crusty bread. And if you’re after something different, try a Vietnamese-style banh mi from Lam Lam in Southport. It’s a local favorite that mixes flavours you don’t get everywhere on the coast.

Also, timing’s key: some of the better places close shop after lunch or sell out fast. Get there early and grab a takeaway to enjoy by the beach, trust me.
