Sovereign Resort's formal Balcony Restaurant serves Mod Oz cuisine such as Atherton eye fillet and crispy skinned coral trout, as well as share plates such as seafood and bush-tucker platters. The less formal street-level Cafe Bar (10am to 10pm) has reasonably priced fish and chips, steak and burgers, as well as pool tables and a full bar.
