A cafe in the Gold Coast’s newest up-market retail precinct will be pouring free coffee to thank locals on its opening day.
The scaffolding has finally come down on Nobby Beach’s The Oxley ahead of its VIP opening celebration on Thursday night and public debut on Saturday.
Stage One of the development will house tenants including the Oxley Village Grocer, Oxley Village Butcher, Oxley Village Deli, Oxley 1823 Sub Station and Buoy.
Buoy owner Brodie Green said he would be serving free coffee all Saturday to mark the opening of the centre.
“As a big thank you to Nobby Beach for welcoming us with open arms, we’re giving away free coffee all day this Saturday,” he said.
Mr Green – popular for his Burleigh Sea Dog coffee shops – said he was “excited” to be opening his largest cafe venture so far.
“From the moment I saw the renders from (developer) Daniel (Veitch) and his team, I was hooked,” he said.
“The original renders don’t do it justice.
“It’s turned into something pretty special.
“I haven’t seen anything on this level before on the Gold Coast.”
The Oxley also announced it would be welcoming back local favourite butcher Gourmet Meats.
“The well-known and much-loved Steve of Gourmet Meats is returning to the precinct to bring the community the Oxley Village Butcher,” an Oxley spokesperson said.
“Steve and his team have been providing premium meats and culinary delights to the Mermaid to Miami community since 2009.”
Locals reacted on social media to the return of the “best butcher ever”.
“Cannot wait to have Steve and his crew back,” @surfkarmastw said on Instagram.
“Hands down the friendliest and best butchers I have ever come across.
“Welcome home.”
On Saturday, The Oxley Village Butcher will be giving out free chicken and gravy rolls from 11am to 1pm, Oxley 1823 Sub Station will offer a gratis scoop of gelato from 1pm to 3pm and there will be a petting zoo and face painting for the kids from 8am.
