Espresso and Co
The hustle and bustle of a cafe is often the best way to gauge how good it is, and Espresso and Co is always hustling and bustling with locals and tourists. Don’t let the crowds deter you, though! The service at Espresso and Co is speedy and reliable, and their baristas are second-to-none. The tall paperbark trees that tower over the cafe offer a sweet reprieve from the sun, too! You seriously won’t be able to stop yourself from being sucked into the convivial hubbub of this locally loved star.

The Beach Hut
Ever wondered what exactly is Australian cuisine? On top of being home to an unrivalled cafe scene and the best baristas in the world (this is our unbiased expert opinion), a huge part of what characterises Aussie cuisine is our focus on what’s fresh and healthy. There’s something about the warm, salty air that gets you pining for a fresh juice, a tropical smoothie, an acai bowl laden with Australia’s famously lush fruits. The Beach Hut is a quintessentially Queensland cafe that offers all this and more. Find yourself a seat under the Beach Hut’s umbrellas and let the warm and welcoming staff fix you up with one of the freshest treaties your taste buds will ever experience.
Underground Palm Cove
What do you get when you cross London’s iconic tube system with Tropical Far North Queensland? Underground Cafe, Palm Cove’s cutest and quirkiest cafe by far run by a father-son duo and set in the heart of William Esplanade. Enjoy a slice of the motherland with the Prince Charles omelette or the Big Ben Breakfast, and if you happen to swing by in the afternoon treat yourself to a sunset speciality drink — because you’re not on holidays unless you’ve got a cocktail in hand and an ocean horizon in sight.
