Why it's worth checking out
The Quack Coffee brings a quality cafe to McLeod Street in Cairns City, in tropical Far North Queensland. A 4.7 rating from 160 reviews marks it as a genuine local favourite.
The appeal is a properly made coffee and a relaxed cafe experience with a loyal following — the sort of place to start the day, grab a quality cup or settle in with a catch-up. Its central Cairns location, close to the Esplanade and the reef gateway, makes it an easy and convenient stop.
Cafe menus, specials and trading hours change over time. If you're after a particular dish or specific opening hours, it's worth confirming the current details directly with the cafe before you head over.
