Gold Coast
At a glance
The Vault Bar & Tapas is a Broadbeach bar and dining venue centred on shared plates, cocktails and live music. Located at Shop 21/90 Surf Parade, it offers an evening setting for diners and drinkers seeking food alongside entertainment on the Gold Coast.
The menu combines tapas-style plates with larger meals and seafood. Smaller options include marinated olives, seasoned nuts, edamame, garlic bread, truffle fries, bruschetta, arancini, fried calamari and grilled cauliflower. Sharing boards with cured meats, cheeses, pâté and accompaniments add a more substantial option for groups or relaxed grazing.
Seafood features across the menu, with oysters, prawns, octopus and other seafood dishes represented. Larger plates include slow-cooked meats, ribs, fish and chips, pasta and salads, giving the kitchen a broad, accessible style rather than a single regional focus. The menu also includes Italian influences, Mediterranean-style sharing food and dishes with Asian-inspired seasoning.
Drinks are part of the experience, with cocktails suited to an evening at the bar and wine pairing naturally with the tapas and sharing boards. The atmosphere is shaped by live performances, making the venue more than a straightforward dining room. Music provides an entertainment focus while guests eat, share plates or settle in for drinks.
The Vault suits casual dates, small celebrations, after-work drinks and groups that prefer a social meal built around several dishes. The mix of tapas, mains and bar drinks also allows different dining styles, from a light snack to a longer dinner. Guests who enjoy a lively setting may find the venue a suitable choice, while those seeking a quiet meal may prefer to check the performance schedule before booking.
Its Surf Parade address places the venue within Broadbeach’s dining and nightlife precinct. The combination of shared food, cocktails and live music gives The Vault Bar & Tapas a convivial format for evenings when conversation, entertainment and dining are all part of the plan.
