A New Chapter Begins
For Surface Hill
Nestled on Channon Street in the very heart of Gympie, Surface Hill brings new life to one of the region’s most iconic landmarks. Housed inside a beautifully restored 1890s gothic church, our restaurant, café, and bar blends timeless heritage with modern hospitality.
Flavours to Savour
Fresh, Local & Vibrant
We celebrate fresh, locally sourced produce with a menu inspired by vibrant Asian flavours. Whether you’re sharing plates with friends, enjoying a relaxed coffee, or winding down with a crafted cocktail, every experience at Surface Hill is designed to be savoured.
Our Heritage, Our Story
Our philosophy is simple:
honour the past, embrace the present, & create memorable experiences.
Built in 1890, our gothic church has long stood as a cornerstone of the Gympie community. After years of being vacant, this heritage-listed building has been reimagined into Surface Hill — a place to gather, connect, and celebrate.
From the intricate architecture of our historic home on Channon Street to the vibrant flavours on your plate, every detail has been carefully considered to create a dining experience that feels truly unique and memorable.
Expect colourful small plates, shareable mains, and signature dishes that are both comforting and exciting.
Whether you’re here for a leisurely brunch, a quick coffee, or dinner and drinks with friends, our chefs are passionate about creating food that delights the eye and the palate.
