Miami Tavern 0 Likes

A local landmark since the original Hotel Miami opened in 1925, evolving into Miami Tavern in 1966; now branded simply as The Miami after a large-scale renovation in 2019–20.

Underwent a multi?million?dollar rebuild by ALH Group, resulting in a bright, coastal-inspired two-level venue.

Designed by Cayas Architects, showcasing natural timbers, pastel accents, locally made furniture, regional artworks, a mural, and a signature surfboard installation.

Upstairs Bistro & Deck:

• Seats 200+, offering panoramic views of North Burleigh Beach and Miami Hill.
• Serves elevated pub-style fare, burgers, fish & chips, parmas, pizzas, share boards, seafood, steaks, salads, plus kids and seniors menus.

Downstairs Sports Bar & Beer Garden:

Has over 20 taps, TAB, live sports (AFL, NRL, UFC), breezy outdoor seating with beach outlook.

Also find:

• Gaming & Events: Pokies, pool tables, live rock music. The Miami is also known as the home of the "Shark Bar" and hosts UFC events.
• Functions & Private Dining: Offers spaces for private events, including an 18?seat private room with a balcony and a large TV.

Miami is a revitalised beachfront venue that blends coastal charm, modern pub cuisine, vibrant sports culture, and entertainment. Ideal for groups, families, sports fans, or casual diners—especially with its upstairs deck and downstairs bar experience. While most enjoy the lively ambience and views, food and wait times may vary on busier nights.
