Palm Cove's Best Food Experiences

We are sometimes asked where the best restaurants are in a given location.

To be frank, that’s sometimes a bit challenging because there are so many great restaurants in places like Palm Cove that it’s difficult to choose the one or two that someone might consider to be the best. You can be sure there will be several great ones to choose from near your Palm Cove luxury accommodation.


Of course, it’s also the case that these things can be in the eye of the beholder. Our idea of a great restaurant might not be the same as yours.

So, we try to avoid talking about specific restaurants but what we can do is give you a few tips on some of the special foods in this area and what you might like to try. 




You might want to look for restaurants specializing in:

  • Fresh fish. It goes without saying that the seas around Far North Queensland are a fantastic source of some of the best fish around including things like the incomparable Barramundi. Make sure the restaurant you are looking at serves only fresh fish and nothing that has been frozen down – at least if you want the best dining experience.
  • Steaks. OK, this sounds a bit basic but you simply can’t beat the quality of the beef served locally and if it’s beautifully prepared with some great accompanying vegetables, it can be an entirely different thing to some of that mass-produced beef you might see elsewhere.
  • Australian bush cuisine. Yes, it may sound a bit touristy but don’t underestimate the delicious nature of things such as crocodile and kangaroo. If you had never had them before, once again be adventurous and give them a try. They’ll open your eyes to a new range of flavours and textures.
The unique dining experience is one of the great joys of Far North Queensland so enjoy yourself!
