It can't be the outback as it's outfront. :D You do know the outback is many hours drive west don't you? :)

The one road in/out splits to just serve Tin Can Bay and Rainbow Beach and they are both small places.

The pub on the main street, Rainbow Beach Hotel, is lovely for food, we ate there several times. We stayed at the campsite in town, it was spot on, decent facilities and you could roll home. We ate at the surf club one night and well, it wasn't very nice, but that could've been a bad night, don't know... There's also a nice wee restaurant down the side of the pub, down a wee walkway, it's a BYO which is always good!!! Tincan Bay isn't far away either and it was great for getting the kayak into the water and they did nice brekkies at the wee cafe on the corner...

Oh there's also this: http://www.rainbowbeachqld.com/carlo_sand_blow.html we didn't get to see it but apparently it's really nice, also some nice places to go but you could only access them via 4WD which we didn't have back then.

We ate at the pub quite a bit, it really is nice, and fast service too. Also a nice wee burger bar on the opposite side of the street at the beach end, really nice, and a gelato place on the same side as the pub further up the street.
