Oxenford Tavern

Right on the Old Pacific Highway sits the ultimate Northern Gold Coast local. Fresh off a slick reno. Spacious, laid-back—effortlessly dividing the quiet diners from the roaring sports crowd. Tradies knocking off for cold tap beers rub shoulders with families chasing down a legendary honeycomb brownie. Gold Coast natives routinely pack the bistro for proper, hearty pub grub. Think massive schnitzels, steaks cooked right on point, and impossibly fresh $2 oysters. The energy? Pure, upbeat community vibes. Staff keep the floor moving with sharp, intuitive service, even when the trivia night heats up. Got kids in tow? The dedicated play area and weekend face painting keep them sorted while you sink a frosty pint. Unpretentious. Dependable. Exactly what a stellar Aussie pub should be.
