Discover North Stores, an environmentally sustainable precinct celebrating real food and local produce, boutique beverages, floral and ceramic art, ethical retail and holistic wellness.

Located in the community heart of Tamborine Mountain, high in the Gold Coast hinterland and in the eastern reaches of the Scenic Rim, North Stores houses a thoughtfully curated selection of shops and studios, eateries and bars, events and experiences, where locals and visitors alike gather to relax and enjoy.

Contemporary, comfortable and welcoming, North Stores is architecturally designed and landscaped in consideration of the old, tall trees onsite and the ancient forests a short stroll away. Take a seat in the light-filled indoors or on the adjoining deck, or wander through the garden; the entire precinct feels connected to nature and place.

Whether you’re a local, a day tripper or here for the weekend, North Stores invites you to come and experience the best of what South-East Queensland has to offer.
