Easily one of the best breakfast hubs in Cairns, the Cafe is almost legendary for its unique dishes and those who’ve lived here swear by its generous servings. Speaking of servings, if you ever find yourself wondering whether to order the Full Monty, brace yourself. You’re going to get double the delight you’re expecting. Always remember: when they say they know how to feed their customer, they’re not kidding. And neither am I.

Lillipad’s variety is astounding. From their Avocado to Shaksuka, the flavours come alive in every bite. But here’s a little secret between us: don’t let the bustling crowd deter you. The layout ensures you always find a spot, no matter how full the house gets.

Coziness over ostentation, I always say. While Lillipad may not dazzle with glitz, it draws you in with a warmth that’s hard to replicate. Though, a word to the wise, those who enjoy outdoor seating might find some pigeons keeping them company.

Now, if you’re all about first impressions, a single visit will do the trick. But, I guarantee, you’ll be back the next day. From its quality food to the quirky art, it’s a sensory treat. Plus, vegetarians and vegans? This might be your culinary nirvana in Cairns. Almost every dish can cater to your needs.

One must applaud their knack for combining massive portion sizes with the freshest ingredients. Eggs Benny on salmon? Or bacon? Let’s just say, chef’s kiss. Not to mention, the pricing is just the cherry on top. Value for money? Lillipad sets the bar high.

Parking? Oh, just opposite the Cafe. Handy, right? If you’re wondering about the decor, it’s a blend of quirky meets classic. And while they might not have waitstaff at each table, their efficient team ensures you’re never left wanting.

In a world where menus are often restrictive, especially for those with kids in tow, Lillipad shines with its vast offerings. It’s no surprise then that both residents and tourists flock here.
