About The Malibu Racquet Club

Burleigh Heads cocktail seekers head here for balanced drinks and an easy room where hours slip away.

  • Off-Menu Drink Crafting: Bartenders readily craft off-menu cocktails tailored to your palate alongside signatures like the Tai Breaker.
  • Curated Bar Plates: A snack-focused spread features freshly shucked oysters, creamy burrata, and stracciatella with macadamia.
  • Laid-Back Lounge Setting: Welcoming hospitality and an unpretentious room make it an easy choice for date nights and late nightcaps.

Before you head over

Practical advice on timing, ordering, and planning your visit

  • Plan for Light Bites Rather Than Full Dinner

    The venue centers on a concise snacks menu with light bites like stracciatella, oysters, and burrata, making it best suited for pre-dinner drinks, post-dinner nightcaps, or casual sharing rather than a full multi-course meal.

  • Ask About Off-Menu Cocktail Options

    If you have a favorite classic or spirit profile not featured on the printed cocktail list, ask the bartenders—they are readily accommodating with tailored off-menu drink preparations.

  • Time Your Visit for Atmosphere and Volume

    The space can become quite lively and loud during peak times; arrive earlier in the evening or on quieter weekday afternoons for a calmer, more relaxed conversation setting.
