The first two levels of the two tower blocks of Gurney Paragon are occupied by food and beverage outlets including The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, Wong Kok Restaurant, Petite Millie French restaurant, Brussels Beer Cafe, T.G.I Friday's, Pacific Coffee Company and Goku Raku Ramen.

A public square affording an expansive view of the Gurney Drive waterfront is between the tower blocks in front of St Jo's.
