3 Best Cafes in Cairns QLD

Great little spot for breakfasts right on the water. We were staying at the Riley nearby and this breakfast was much better! Had a great smoothie that they let me customize and a large Benedict. Not the cheapest, but quality, and great location. Snag a spot looking at the water and enjoy! Vegetarian options: Marked on menu Dietary restrictions: Let me customize a smoothie to avoid dairy Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessed right from the boardwalk.

busy cafe on the esplanade that does food well. Went here for breakfast on a Sunday and it was super busy (as one would anticipate) and it took 40 minutes for food and drinks to come out (which was also anticipated and warning was provided when ordering). The breakfast met our expectations. Knowing how busy it is, my advice would be to reserve a table on the weekend and not come in super hungry.

Went for breakfast. Food was quite delicious and the drinks were good and beautiful as well. Very busy during the morning. Name of some dishes a tad weird though ( looking at you morning glory).

Very good coffee and western fusion cafe food in this cafe. Filter coffee is really good. Very good quality coffee beans. Kimchi fried rice is very tasty. Big breakfast is huge, perfect for meat lover. Perfectly fried potatoes. Avocado toast also very nice. Seating are very comfortable. Staff are friendly. No card surcharge, which is huge bonus. Plenty of parking nearby. Public transport available.

I tried the truffle mushroom with poached egg, and it was absolutely marvelous. The toast was perfectly crisp at the edges, providing a delightful contrast to the creamy, well-seasoned mushrooms infused with the rich aroma of truffle oil. The combination was simply excellent, making for a thoroughly enjoyable breakfast.

The breakfast was absolutely delicious, and the staff were incredibly friendly and well-mannered. The prices were reasonable, making it an all-around great experience in Cairns. Highly recommended.

Awesome little Cafe on Spence Street in the heart of Cairns. Open for breakfast and lunch, same menu so breakfast available at lunch time too. I was staying around the corner at Pullman International Hotel just 2 minutes walk away. Had breakfast a few times, toast, yoghurt cup and their big breakfast which was delicious. Very friendly staff and very good coffee. They got 2 blends of coffee, smooth or strong.

Stop here for a quick coffee and something to eat!! Wow.. Coffee was amazing and arrived very fast even though cafe was busy with their Sunday morning rush. I ordered their brekky wrap. Really good. Would highly recommend!

Nice café with supper friendly staff and good food at reasonably cost point. Street side on cul-de-sac so just a tad noisy at times. Worth a visit if you are looking for some tasty treats too.
