Hands down the best breakfast I have had for a long time! Polenta done beautifully and eggs poached to perfection. Wilted spinach had a dressing that provided some acidity to balance. Highly recommend!! Oh, and coffee is best I’ve had in cairns ; )

The owner is one of the coolest ladies in town. The menu is constantly changing, which is a nice gift to residents. It can get bit hot in summer but this is the tropics...deal with it. Coffee's are worth tasting too and the hot sauce is mindblowing!

Excellent fresh juice menu, delicious coffee, quick service and delicious food that isn't pretentious or pricey. Friendly servers and chef, thank you, I enjoyed my breakfast immensely, especially the music playlist.

Perfect little cafe with rock solid food and great service. I went twice during my time in Cairns and the food and coffee I got was excellent, and the kitchen was VERY fast - I couldn’t have waited more than 5 minutes for my meal.
