Why it's worth checking out
Pete & Paulz Breakfast Bar sits on Sheridan Street in Cairns City, in the heart of tropical north Queensland. A popular breakfast cafe, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality breakfast and brunch fare and good coffee — the kind of welcoming, crowd-pleasing spot that's become a genuine favourite for a hearty start to the day in central Cairns.
The appeal is that combination of quality, satisfying breakfast and brunch fare, good coffee and a relaxed, welcoming setting in a convenient central location, ideal for a hearty breakfast, a leisurely brunch or a casual catch-up. A cafe that's nailed the all-important breakfast becomes a real favourite, and Pete & Paulz has clearly won over a loyal following.
With a 4.6 rating from more than 550 reviews, it's clearly hitting the mark. Menus, opening hours and offerings change with the seasons, and a popular breakfast cafe gets busy on weekend mornings, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a hearty breakfast and a good coffee, it's often just a matter of dropping in and seeing why it's so well rated in Cairns.
