Sunny's Rooftop Bar

Margate Beach

Updated: Mar 17, 2026

Sunny's rooftop bar, perched atop The Sebel Brisbane Margate Beach with breathtaking 180-degree ocean vistas, is the Redcliffe peninsula's best-kept secret.

Open on Fridays from 3pm and Saturday and Sunday from 12pm, there's no finer place on the northern bayside to enjoy an afternoon or sunset drink.

The bar food menu includes small plates like chargrilled sourdough with tomato and olive tapenade; fried scamorza cheese with tomato salsa verde; vege spring rolls; chicken and prawn wontons; and broad bean falafel with pumpkin hommus; as well as red cheddar cheeseburger or chicken katsu burger; and a small selection of salads.

Good to know - There is live music from 5-8pm Friday and from 2-5pm Sunday.

Need to know - On Saturdays Sunny's closes at 4pm, but is open late Friday and Sunday.
