The Next Bar & Eatery is an indoor and outdoor bar and restaurant at 132 Pinecrest Drive in Gulf Harbour, on the marina at Fairway Bay, with views over the water. The menu is a small one built around fresh snapper, including battered snapper and chips in Asahi beer batter, and smashed Wagyu burgers at $16 for a single and $20 for a double as at 2026. Other dishes include calamari, garlic prawns, a Thai beef salad and a Korean fried chicken taco. There is a wine list, gin and whisky selection, cocktails and tap beer. Gluten-free options are available on most dishes for an extra $2, except the fries.
Diners say the snapper and chips and the Wagyu burger are the dishes to order, and that the calamari and the Thai beef salad are good too. Reviewers mention the marina views, the sunny garden and heaters and blankets in winter, and the friendly, helpful staff. One group with allergies says the kitchen was very accommodating. The venue also offers full private hire for events such as corporate functions and birthdays.
