Why it's worth checking out
The Tin Shed (Douglas Community & Sports Club) sits on Ashford Avenue in Port Douglas, the glamorous tropical-north Queensland resort town north of Cairns. A much-loved community and sports club, it's a genuine local institution — combining good-value dining and drinks with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere and a lovely waterfront position, the kind of easygoing spot that's popular with locals and visitors alike.
The appeal is that combination of good-value, casual food, a relaxed club atmosphere and a gorgeous Port Douglas waterfront setting, ideal for a casual meal, a drink by the water or a relaxed night out. Community and sports clubs have a wonderfully welcoming, unpretentious character, and with its lovely location, The Tin Shed has become a genuine favourite.
With a 4.3 rating from more than 2,500 reviews, it's clearly a popular, well-loved spot. Menus, drinks, opening hours, any membership or sign-in arrangements and events vary, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a casual meal, a drink and a relaxed waterfront atmosphere, it's often just a matter of heading to The Tin Shed in Port Douglas.
