Grafton Coffee
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Cairns City, Grafton Coffee is a whimsical café that beckons to both locals and visitors alike. Located at 31 Grafton St, this charming spot is a delightful fusion of an inviting atmosphere and laid-back vibes—a perfect escape for those seeking a caffeine fix or a hearty breakfast. With a theme reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland, the café features stunning mural art that transforms the walls into vibrant canvases, inviting you to snap a quick photo or simply marvel at the creativity surrounding you.
As you step inside, you’re greeted by the intoxicating aroma of freshly brewed coffee. Grafton Coffee prides itself on serving up a range of well-crafted drinks that cater to every palate. Although some customers have wished for more alternative milk options, such as oat milk, the quality of their coffee remains undeniably high, with more than one patron rating it a perfect 10/10. The café has a cozy yet minimal seating arrangement, with just a couple of tables indoors and a few outside, making it an excellent spot for a quick visit or to grab-and-go when you're on the move.
The menu features a selection of delightful breakfast staples that are both affordable and satisfying. Begin your day with something wholesome like the Yoghurt Pots or indulge in the classic Eggs on Toast. Those craving a little more will appreciate the Brekky Wrap or the sensory delight of a BLT—crispy bacon, luscious tomato, and crisp lettuce, all sandwiched between perfectly toasted bread. For a lighter option, try their tantalizing Smoked Salmon Cream Cheese offering, perfectly paired with capers and red onion. Each dish is crafted with care, ensuring that even the simplest ingredients shine.
What sets Grafton Coffee apart, however, are the glowing reviews from satisfied customers. From the enchanting decor—which has been compared to scenes straight out of a fairytale—to the friendly and welcoming service, every detail is designed for a stellar experience. Positive mentions have highlighted its old-school charm, especially appealing to those who appreciate classic sandwiches like a chicken and salad sanga, made just the way you like it. Regulars rave about the delicious salads and attentiveness of the staff, painting a portrait of a café committed to quality and customer satisfaction.
If you find yourself wandering the quaint streets of Cairns, Grafton Coffee is undoubtedly a stop you'll want to make. It’s not just about the food and coffee; it’s about the charm, the warmth, and the little touches that make your day just a bit brighter. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful reprieve from shopping or a place to catch up with friends, Grafton Coffee meets the occasion. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a unique café experience full of delightful surprises!
