Why on earth to I insist on coming into places like this. With much better offerings in the area I…read moreseem to have the need to check out some of the grungiest pubs around. Okay, I have been to much worse, but this is a typical pub with a typical pub atmosphere, right in the middle of Broadbeach. Well, I should say that it is a little better that some of the others I've been to, but for Broadbeach, it certainly isn't the best. Basically it is one of the ALH chain of pubs, meaning that you get cheap drinks, but you also have the pokies room hidden out the back. There are a couple of bars, and the balcony that looks over the beach is pretty cool, but it is also the designated smoking area, so if you're a non-smoker, you probably won't get much comfort here. Still, got to give the smokers a decent view sometimes.

Really disappointing experience at Broadbeach Tavern. We came with a group of friends hoping to…read morehave a good night, but the staff refused to let our friends in without giving us a clear explanation. It honestly felt like they just didn't like our group. The staff were unwelcoming, dismissive, and unprofessional throughout the experience. For a place in such a great location, you'd expect much better customer service. Plenty of better spots in Broadbeach where you can actually enjoy your night. Definitely wouldn't recommend.

The result of this lethargic production line was not to be frowned on, however the quality of the food was spoiled by the tedious wait- a spurting of liquid faeces on the face of all customers awaiting service. Just a sidebar: As I awaited my dinner, the sweet, sweet sound of the slaps kept leading me to that oh so lustful temptress- the sparkling "play" button of them beautiful poker machines.

That meant that the upstairs area was basically closed so we were all relegated to the sports bar that happened to be located in the depths of this place.

A few minutes later, the band got on stage and the place started filling up! The music was pretty good and everyone was dancing. Great place for groups to grab some drinks and dance without feeling that you need to dress up or anything. I didn't make it to the outdoor area so I would definitely be open to going back to check that out. A good place to stop on a pub crawl or start the night off. It's casual and everyone is welcome!

At first glance the Elephant and Wheelbarrow looks like just another old English pub with a typical…read morewooden interior and a carpeted floor. However there is much more to this pub than initially meets the eye. If you walk through the British style pub it leads you to the biggest beer garden in the Valley which is quite a nice surprise. The beer garden is perfect for nights out and accommodate allot of people which makes it prefect for those group nights out. The great thing about the Elephant and Wheelbarrow is that it has something happening every night of the week. The most noticeable of these are the great food deals. This includes 2 dollar steak nights on Sundays and 1 dollar taco nights on Tuesdays. These are just some of the examples of meals for under 10 dollars every day of the week. Don't be fooled by the cheap price however because the food is definitely up to standard. On Fridays there is also a great deal for groups of 5 people or more, this gives a group a meal platter worth 80 dollars when you book in. The Drink prices are fairly pricey however so this is where people wanting a cheap night out need to watch out as the cheap meal deal can quickly get pricey. There is also a wide range of live music nights such as Monday karaoke, live music on Sunday and a great range of other live local acts through the rest of the week. Personally I enjoy the Elephant Unplugged on Wednesday nights. The Web site is updated regularly and is a great way to find out more about events that are hosted by the Elephant and Wheelbarrow.
