“This was a glamour venue for pre-dinner cocktails and one of the most popular meeting places in Surfers Paradise. When it opened women, by law, were not allowed to sit at the bar. A protest of women who boldly sat at the bar with their partners was held while the premises was being inspected for licensing approval. Eventually in the 1960s the law was overturned.”
