About Bar Lago Pizzeria Gelateria

Waterfront views meet crisp, thin-crust slices at this Carrara lakeside outpost. Regulars treat the open-air deck like a slice of Lake Como—sipping a limoncello spritz crowned with lemon gelato while the Surfers Paradise skyline glints across the lake. The kitchen bakes its dough in-house, keeping toppings disciplined rather than overloaded, from the classic capricciosa to bubbly four-cheese pies. When evening breezes roll off the water, outdoor heaters kick on, accompanied by warm blankets and a glass of chilled red. Dessert calls for house tiramisu or fresh strawberry milkshake gelato under the stars.

  • Lakeside Outdoor Comfort: Open-air dining by the water comes equipped with outdoor heaters and warm blankets for chilly evenings.
  • Crisp Thin-Crust Pizzas: House-made dough baked thin and crisp, finished with disciplined toppings like capricciosa and buffalo mozzarella.
  • Gelato & Signature Spritzes: Scratch-made gelato served by the scoop or floated directly into signature limoncello spritzes.

  • European Waterside Ambience

    The open-air lakeside terrace transports guests to an authentic Italian waterfront escape right on the Gold Coast.

    I felt like I was back in Italy on the waters of Positano or Venice. The atmosphere and location was phenomenal

  • Authentic Thin-Crust Crisp Pizza

    Pizzas are prepared with house-made dough featuring a light, crispy base and high-quality, balanced toppings.

    Thin crust crispy pizza is just the way we like it. Also, while there are a few pizzas on the menu with a number of ingredients on the pizza, this isn't one of those joints that drown you in toppings. All ingredients on these pizzas are A-grade

    We celebrated my sister’s birthday at Bar Lago and loved every bit of our time there. Their service was absolutely amazing, and we met Ginta the owner who was incredibly kind, warm, and generous.

    We had the seafood pizza, and it was honestly one of the best pizzas I’ve had. The toppings were fresh and generous, and the flavour was amazing.

    The Buffala pizza was served in beautiful, large slices with a nice, thin base, so it reminded me of eating pizza in New York City. Positively delicious !!!

Before you head over

Practical tips on open-air waterside dining, specialty drinks, and dessert selections at Bar Lago.

  • Pack a Layer for Lakeside Seating

    Since all seating is situated outdoors along the water where breezes can pick up, bring a jumper or layer up for cooler evenings, though staff provide outdoor heaters and blankets.

  • Try Gelato-Infused Specialty Cocktails

    For a distinctive house specialty, order cocktails paired with house-churned gelato, like the Limoncello Spritz served with lemon gelato or sorbet.

  • Save Room for In-House Gelato and Desserts

    Be sure to save room after your pizza to sample the dessert menu, featuring artisan house-made gelato flavors alongside Italian favorites like tiramisu and cannoli.
