Espresso & Co Cafe Palm Cove

Espresso & Co sits on Williams Esplanade at Palm Cove, one of the most beautiful and relaxed beachside villages near Cairns in tropical north Queensland. A much-loved cafe right on the esplanade, it makes the most of its lovely location — combining good coffee and quality cafe fare with the easygoing, palm-fringed charm of Palm Cove.

The appeal is that combination of quality coffee, good food and a gorgeous beachside-village setting, ideal for a morning coffee, a leisurely brunch or a casual bite with the beach and the palms close by. Palm Cove's relaxed, tropical mood pairs perfectly with a quality esplanade cafe, and it's become a genuine favourite for both locals and visitors.

With a 4.6 rating from more than 900 reviews, it's clearly hitting the mark. Menus, opening hours and offerings change with the seasons, and a popular beachfront cafe gets busy on weekend mornings and over the tourist season, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a coffee and a casual bite, it's often just a matter of dropping in and soaking up the Palm Cove atmosphere.
