A firm favourite among carnivores for succulent steaks and racks of ribs, Hurricane’s Bar & Express at Circle raised some eyebrows when they ditched both of those things in favour of seriously stacked burgers, perfectly cooked pizzas and succulent rotisserie chicken. Before you go getting too upset, you can still get your meaty fix down the other end of Surfers Paradise however the express venue has adopted a local, budget-friendly focus. When it comes to burgers, the Old School loaded with Aussie beef, grilled bacon, egg, gooey cheese, caramelised onion, crispy iceberg lettuce, tomato and beetroot is undoubtedly a crowd pleaser and if you were lamenting the lack of ribs, the Hurricane’s Rib pizza, which is topped with actual ribs, will surely ease the hurt. Thirsty? Hurricane’s boasts a stellar selection of local beers, wines from Australia and abroad and signature cocktails to keep you hydrated. Born in Bondi, bred in Surfers Paradise, Hurricane’s Bar & Express offers the same signature Hurricane’s experience but in a slightly more relaxed setting. Slide into a booth or sink into one of the comfy couches and get ready to feast. The venue also offers takeaway and is available for delivery on Deliveroo.
