The food looked like it had just been thrown on the grill but never actually cooked. Plus, everything was served on non-recyclable, disposable plastic. The coffee tasted like it had never been cleaned, and the service was rude and disrespectful. The owner even told me to wipe my hands on my shirt when I asked for an extra napkin.

Considering the busy tourist area and lunchtime rush, we found this to be understandable. However, after a few minutes passed, we inquired about our order as our children were hungry. We were informed that our food was just being prepared. When the food finally arrived, it was evident that it was a budget meal as the quality was lacking. The presentation was subpar, with our food simply thrown onto plastic plates without any apology. We even had to return to the restaurant to request cutlery to eat our meal.

They did not provide any serviettes and when we asked for straws with our drinks, the staff didn't know where they were. Honestly, I could have made a better meal myself. In our time in the Cairns region, we have had some of the best meals of our lives and also some of the worst. This experience was definitely the worst. There are other cafes in Kuranda, so I would recommend going to one of those instead.

I tried the beef pie, which was excellently made with a flaky crust and a hearty filling. The accompanying gravy was fantastic. Instead of the usual fries, I opted for a fresh and crisp salad. I also enjoyed a delicious pumpkin soup. Although dining takes place on the sidewalk, the tables are sheltered since Kuranda is nestled within a rainforest, providing a pleasant setting. My dining experience was enjoyable, complemented by quick and friendly service. I highly recommend this café.

The prices were very reasonable. It's an excellent place to eat, and I would highly recommend it!
