Great offering of favourite breakfasts and this was one of the few places that had good coffee whilst in Cairns! I'm a self-confessed coffee snob, but they made my piccolo perfectly!

We had an lunch for four that totalled over $80 for what was essential burgers and milkshakes. Otherwise the food was excellent, great atmosphere and clean and tidy. Some cultural differences meant our order got a bit confused - I'm Australian but many cafes in cairns have working tourists passing through making some things a bit tough. "Best vege burger... More

On the esplanade. Varied menu. Breakfast from 6.30-4pm and the rest of the menu from 6.30 also. Coffee is the best I have had all holiday. Good value. Bring your towel and swimmers because the lagoon is across the road.

5 yrs of dropping in for meals from breakfast to tea and never let down. Quality, service, food, price, meal sizes, all excellent. Great for familys or couples, on your own.

Again another of our regular haunts. Great menu, great service, food can vary on who is cooking but it's either been good or excellent. We usually have the Peri Peri Chicken Burger and Steak Burger.

This locally grown coffee is just as good as any of the more famous brands. If you are dining at the Coast Roast in Cairns Central the coffee cups are huge, under $4 and you get a nice little pepermint flavoured chocolate with your coffee. Just special.

We had the cheeseburger which came with an egg. The bun (which was pretty dry) was much larger than the patty, so it was quite difficult to eat. The meat was pretty much tasteless and the chips were way too salty. I had the orange blast, which had bits of bitter pulp / rind / seed left in it. Wouldn't... More

Ordered a latte and a fresh juice from a very condescending man behind the counter. When I asked for one sugar in my latte he glared and me and snapped that "sugar is on the tables." When the coffee arrived (with not a word of acknowledgement), it was very average and definitely not what I had expected given their reputation.... More

Been wanting to go here for ages and finally did just that this morning. My husband loves a really decent coffee. We ordered a short machiato each - what a delight to the taste buds and the mint choc that went with it is a wonderful touch. Now we have moved here to Cairns, this will be a place to... More
