Yumyumyum amazing place to get a filling and delicious meal! The service and atmosphere are incredibly welcoming and friendly. The food was incredible, the falafel pita was so crispy and flavourful, and the chicken pita was so tender and well seasoned. The hot sauce gives the pita an unexpected kick and elevates it to another level. It was easily the best meal I had during my short stay in Cairns.

Laura Wasmer

BEST chicken I’ve had since I visited that side of the world 6 years ago… will be dreaming about this meal until the next time. So glad this exists in Cairns, we are spoilt!

Benne O

One of the best falafel I had. The falafel pita was so delicious that I also had to try the pita with fried eggplant and boiled egg! I can’t recommend both enough. On top of that the young man and young woman behind the counter were really friendly.Will definitely come again!

The smell walking past was so heavenly I had to try it. I ordered and I was not expecting the food to be so good for such an affordable price and sitting here out the front eating my meal the amount of people who get pulled in by the smell put a smile on my face. The place is busy and bustling yet everyone is just enjoying a nice meal

The food tastes heavenly and they have such amazing vegan options. I got the vegan meal which contains all of their veggie fillings and curries and its incredible. Staff is super friendly and it's so cheap for such a flavourful meal!

We might have eaten at the Roti Shack three times in three days! Highly recommend the vegan roti with everything.

I have been enjoying delicious Rotis from the Roti Shack for the last 5 years since I first arrived in Cairns. They’re always delicious, moreish, and served with a smile.

Best plant-based vegetarian food in Cairns. The food are always tasty, fresh with many options and good portions. The BBQ “pork” bun is a must-try. The place is charming and the lovely lady behind the counter is always friendly and helpful.

Anton Goodchild

Easy 5 out of 5 for me, not only some of the most delicious vegetarian i've had but love the fact it's down a nice laneway which gave me a sense of adventure. Also love the general layout, classy but rustic and the staff were lovely. Will go again next time in Cairns.

Emily Pike-Wilson

Lovely vegan food, good range of options and all of them were very tasty. The spicy oil you can add to the side is very spicy but good. My kids loved the dishes and keep asking to go back for more stir fried noodles and crispy cauliflower.

Beautiful food!! I come to Cairns frequently for work and always eat here for lunch. Different dishes every week and they are all amazing

I got a large smoothie here while waiting for my Chinese food next door and it did not disappoint! The staff were so kind and helped me pick a smoothie since I’m indecisive 😅. Great vibes. Great drink 🎶

Peta Heddles

Great food, Great Service. The arcade is outdated so it does no justice for this beautiful cafe/restaurant. It’s never over crowded so thats a good thing for the customer. If they were located somewhere else they would have a franchise happening, they would be super busy!

Best cafe food I’ve had in a long time! The avocado smash is to die for, and my partner really enjoyed his chicken burger. The coffee and smoothie were delicious! The service was 10/10 and the atmosphere of the restaurant was so nice. Highly recommend a visit here!

Ren Tilley

Some of the best food we had going up the East Coast. Fabulous menu, gorgeous interior and exterior. Impeccable service from all waiters and waitresses.

Matthew James Oxlade

Great service, huge portions! I got the crème brûlée and it was honestly the best I’ve ever had and was humongous. I could barely finish it (but I did because it was that good).

Flower Farm

Amazing food. Very authentic and delicious. Updating my review after 6 years. Decor is basic but you’re not here for that! The food more than makes up for it. Don’t forget to have the Satay - the sauce it comes with is great.

Azharul Islam

Small joint but good food. Owner is very welcoming and friendly. You might have to wait a bit as they are under the pump due to their popularity. But the wait is worthy. I would recommend this cafe whoever wants some good Indonesian food.

Ward & Steph Gwillim

The food is AMAZING! Proper, authentic Indonesian cuisine. The satay is absolutely delicious. It's so nice that I've ordered it both times we've visited! It's also the only place in Cairns we've found that serves iced Milo, which is a big bonus for us! They serve generous portions & it's well worth the money. The owners are so friendly and welcoming, and it has a really great, chilled out vibe there. I would definitely recommend visiting Bagus.

Colleen Vaccaro

Has a strong Indoesian warung (street side eatery) feel and vibe. Great to sit and eat or take away. Just off the esplanade with free street side parking.The food tastes wonderful and authentic.

Janith Wanigatunga

Brittany Howk

Randomly stumbled here, and it was actually incredible! They had a gluten free bun, and the guy working was super super helpful. Had the tropical chicken with sweet potato fries, everything was delicious!!!

Ginski Jermolajew

Delicious. Wife craved ‘traditional’ pancakes and was blown away with the quality and taste. I had scrambled eggs and bacon and both were excellent. Super friendly staff too.

Karan Kadam

Excellent burgers. Patty’s made from scratch and not from cold storage like a lot of other places. My wife had the spicy veg and I had the brekky burger. Both burgers were very good. If I was to nitpick the veggie burger fritter could have been seasoned a bit better but overall it was great especially as a whole with the flavourful sauce. Highly recommended if you’re a burger head.

Rhiannon Gamble

I had the cheese burger with beetroot and grilled onion and changed to bbq sauce. It was amazing!!! I’m not a fan of burgers as it’s so filling but I ate this one all up. So tasty. Highly recommend.

Was my favourite breakfast place back in the day when I lived here and it's still great. Known for unique dishes and generous servings. Consistently good food. Highly recommend Lilipad Cafe.

Lovis

One of my favourite breakfast spots in Cairns. The portions are huge and prices are okay. The menu is very big and there's something for everyone. It's not the fanciest place but it's cozy. The only annoying thing are the pigeons which are lurking around when you're sitting outside...

5 out of 5 for everything. top notch service and food quality is second to none. waiter was very impressed two of us managed to finished the whole Banquet since it is of significant quantity, most people can't do it. It's hard to stop eating when the food is good. I will definitely return even if I am not hungry.

Foodie Corner

It is a Mediterranean restaurant. We had lunch by the pier at Piato. The slow cook Cheek and Kebab were full of flavour. Justin's service was excellent.

Jaye Hinchliffe

Lovely spot to enjoy a leisurely Sunday Lunch. Food was delicious, staff are attentive & the vibe is relax & be spoilt. Today I opted for the fish n chippies from the specials menu. Delicious the pic speaks for itself. Will definately be coming back, in fact looking forward to testing the new dinner menu.

Penelope Blackadder

I had been to Piato twice before and loved the food ,the staff and the atmosphere so I suggested to my friend that we should go. My friend hadn't been before and she loved the food and will definitely bring her husband next time. The lamb was so tender it melts in your mouth .
