where to drink

We may be a little biased, but the breweries on the Gold Coast are hands down THE BEST hang outs if you’re chasing a post-Crafted hair of the dog! It’s a great chance to check out the brews you might have missed at the festival. Check out this list of local breweries that you can drop into while you’re here.

If you’re all beered out (if that’s even a thing?) why not head to our favourite gin slingers and cocktail shakers in Miami, Granddad Jack’s Craft Distillery for a gin flight. It’s guaranteed to be a refreshing tipple to lift your spirits!

Or take a visit to Carafe Wine’s cellar door right here on the Goldy, where you can sample wine directly from the barrel, paired perfectly with woodfired pizza or a signature charcuterie board.

WHAT TO EAT

If you’re stuck on what to eat while you’re here (because let’s be honest, it may be a little hard to get up and at ‘em the next day) let us help you!

Get some some good eats, maybe a cocktail or two at these 9 Great Restaurants With A View Of The Water. There really is something about the fresh salty sea breeze that’ll sort you right out! Or check out this directory of all the best eats that’ll be sure to set you straight.
