One of the best coffee spots in town! The atmosphere is amazing—cozy, welcoming, and just the right vibe for relaxing or catching up with friends. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making every visit a pleasure. The coffee is absolutely to die for, rich and full of flavor. And don’t even get me started on the banana bread—it’s hands down the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this place!

Good coffee at High Tide. We ordered a Cubano toastie, croissant and vegetarian quiche. The Cubano toastie was great and I love the jalapeno inside. The vegetarian quiche was a little disappointing as it will filled with the trio of carrot, corn and peas. We ordered a soy cappuccino and oat piccolo. Probably the style served in Aussie where the cappuccino tends to be flatter. Coffee is strong and nice, love the chocolate dusting

Absolutely amazing! The coffee here is top-notch—rich, smooth, and brewed to perfection. The food is just as impressive, with fresh ingredients and delicious flavors in every bite. What really sets this place apart, though, is the service—friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell it's locally owned by the care and pride in everything they do. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a cozy spot with incredible coffee, great food, and unforgettable service!

Friendly environment. I waited a couple of weeks from the opening to come and have a look and was pleasantly surprised. Had a very nice Bacon & Egg puff pastry quiche with a Piccolo coffee and bought a Vanilla Slice to take home. Lovely cosy atmosphere inside and good footpath tables with easy parking right at the front or around the building. Great to see that it's getting busy! And you can bring your dog on your walks. Will definitely go back soon

Literally the best coffee I have tried in Cairns, and probably ever! The staff is so kind and always welcome me with a smile and positive attitude. They know my coffee order by heart which makes it even sweeter. I love this place!
