The presentation of the dishes is colorful and cheerful, and the taste is also excellent. It's a shame that I can't visit this place more often.

Then brought some of it to us and cut them open for us to enjoy. Coffee and food is sensational. Will definitely be back when visiting Cairns.

I wasn't sure what to expect from the tasting, but was presented with a delightful platter of 7 items, including some chocolate-covered espresso beans. I thoroughly enjoyed every sip of the coffee, which I found to be one of the best I have ever tried. One unique drink we sampled was the cold brewed coffee cherries, which was both delicious and refreshing. The scones served alongside were also a hit. The cafe also produces a coffee liqueur, sourced from their own coffee beans. The passion and knowledge of the staff was evident in the presentation of the tasting platter, making it a must-visit spot. Be sure to say hi to Rowan when you visit.

Our food arrived promptly and my husband really enjoyed his beef burger, noting that it wasn't greasy and had beetroot in it. I personally liked the wagyu burger. The iced coffee was perfect and the lemonade scones were delightful. We also took a quick look around the small shop. The staff was efficient and friendly.

But they got though the back log eventually. The food was good and the ambience ok, but the service was a tad overrun. Overall, a good experience.
