After a long day of driving and exploring nature, we decided to wet our whistles and stop at this special place. It's a hotel that reminded me of Germany from the parking lot side. Inside you quickly see the namesake St Bernard dogs who own the joint, which their own room and freedom to roam around. Inside it felt like a traditional British style pub with a good selection of beer and food. We only got drinks out, with the real draw being the patio out back that overlooks the mountains and valleys beyond. There were paths below and gardens with flowers too. Clearly this is the most popular area as they had lots of tables of varying sizes and many happy parties enjoying the view too. There were also many amazing birds flying around and perching on the railings. If you're nearby, this is a great spot. I'm sure it'd be fun to stay at the hotel too. read more

Great place! Friendly staff and beautiful views. Menu offers many options. I had the Guinness meat pie and it did not disappoint.

I really am a fan of this place. Whilst visiting the Gold Coast for the Easter Break (2015) we came across St. Bernard's by chance when we were desperately looking for a late lunch. The truly inviting and imposing entrance gets you wondering what is behind the front doors to the big white building. The gardens are lush and green and covered in vehicles parking anywhere. Through the entrance you enter a rich room of lounges, tables and chairs with white wales with chocolate trimmings - this place is so European Old School. Then through the main 'gathering and lounging' area you walk out onto a big alfresco area which is spacious and boasts one of the most outstanding views (for a beer garden) in Australia. You see a massive valley which sweeps to the right and right out to the sea behind Surfers Paradise. How can this place be - something so fabulous, real and sincere so close to the neon trash and tourism tacky that is Surfer's Paradise? Who cares! We are here, we have a table outside, the weather is sensational and the kitchen is open. The restaurant footprint for this place is massive. You keep finding rooms (and marquess) with tables. The menu is simple comfort food and done well. The perfect menu for everyone, especially kids and the less adventurous diners. Considering the time of year and the numbers of tourists, our food came out at a reasonable time. There are a couple of things I might gripe about St. Bernards - the outside dining area needs to have to ground redone so it is level, car parking was a bit hap-hazard (but this might have been down to the season) plus the dessert were a bit sad, but this too was because it was Easter Monday and their would not have been many supplier working. I can not wait to come back ..... at any time of the year. read more

On a day trip out of Brisbane recently, a friend and I came across this cute Germanic-looking hotel and restaurant, a perfect spot for lunch. I can't comment on the accommodation, but the restaurant puts on a good fare, the atmosphere is nice and the gardens full of colour. Meal sizes are pretty big, but the prices are a bit hefty. I had the Petite Filet Mignon ($28.50) and my friend had the Fish and Chips ($21.50). Both were delicious. After we'd finished eating and relaxing in the garden, we went off exploring some of the walking paths that lead off from the hotel. One path goes to a waterfall, but it's a bit disappointing. There's barricading around it and it all looks a bit man-made. Best to go in search of other waterfalls on Mt Tamborine, of which there are several. St Bernards restaurant is a lovely destination for day-trippers from Brisbane, but if I went again, I'd look for something a little cheaper. read more

Fantastic location and view with friendly animals. Tasty food and great coffee, worth friendly staff.

Upon arrival we where greeted by a massive St Bernard dog asleep on the front porch. It didn't move much during our stay. On entering the hotel it was like entering a medieval pub, wood carved tables and chairs. It was clean and had a charming feel about it, including a wood fire place. And the scenery fantastic , upon looking at menu it was expensive , but hey, who minds if the view is this good, and there is ambience . My daughter had the steak burger and I had the chicken burger . Compared the price with what we received and the burgers where worth every cent we left full, this place is really worth a look. The service was prompt and efficient , and beer cold. read more

It's lovely here. We ate a delicious meal, stayed the night and enjoyed breakfast and walks through the rainforest. The old fashioned hospitality was matched by the charm of being in the old world hotel, which was like stepping back in time 100 years. You'll pay a bit more to eat and stay on one of our most beautiful mountains, but it's worth it and I'll definitely be back. read more

A very ordinary meal. As visitors from out of town we were recommended to eat here. The meal was dreadful with over cooked fish that was hard. The meal was something I would not expect to receive anywhere, let alone a place like this. read more
