There’s always a thrill in discovering something new, this Gold Coast’s institution at the Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort’s newly renovated venue, Pearls Bar. This remarkable renovation marks an important milestone in the resort’s journey under new ownership, promising locals and guests an opportunity to experience luxury at its finest.
Tucked within the heart of the resort, the revitalised Pearls Bar is adorned in rich jewelled tones and lush accents, inspired by the resort’s tropical surrounds. It’s not just the aesthetics that have received a facelift, but the bar experience has been revamped as well, with a newly designed menu that features a selection of locally sourced produce. This has been carefully curated to showcase the vibrant flavours of the region, creating an unforgettable culinary journey.
The Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Gold Coast’s Executive Chef, Christopher Dodds, has shared that the Pearls Bar’s menu was redesigned with a premium guest experience in mind. “From seasonal farm-fresh ingredients to local artisanal creations, each ingredient on the menu tells a story of Queensland’s culinary excellence and celebrates the rich tapestry of flavours unique to the Gold Coast and its surrounds,” said Mr Dodds.
He further added, “The new menu is inspired by the concept that food brings people closer together, creating connections through shared experiences enjoyed over a meal. We hope to bring our guests, both local and international travellers, an experience like no other and one that’s unique to the beautiful coast that we call home.”
Guests can also look forward to an extensive beverage selection featuring handcrafted cocktails, premium wines, and artisanal spirits. Crafted with precision by their team of expert mixologists, the new cocktail menu features several luxurious, designer cocktails including their ‘Pancho’s Pearls’ crafted with Patrón el Cielo Tequila, Crème de Pêche, Perrier Jouet Champagne, citrus and served with peach pearls.
Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Gold Coast General Manager, Keith Massey, says the renovation will modernise the look and feel and give locals and in-house guests a truly luxurious experience. “Pearls Bar has been an integral part of the resort since the hotel was built in 1987. The bar was first known as ‘Breakers Bar’ and was the guests’ go-to piano and cigar lounge,” Mr Massey said.
He added, “As times changed, Pearls Bar naturally evolved alongside the resort. The last refurbishment was in 2013, where the venue was named Pearls Bar. It’s no surprise the renovation of Pearls Bar marks the resort’s first step in its journey under new ownership. We know this hotel plays a large part in the Gold Coast’s history, and has been central in many key milestones and memories for locals and travellers.”
Looking ahead, the resort is ecstatic to celebrate with their valued guests as they innovate and redefine the Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Gold Coast. Guests can expect a variety of events hosted at Pearls Bar, including elevated High Teas, Locals Nights, Sunset Sessions, seasonal events and curated food and beverage tastings.
