The Little Red Kitchen — Restaurant in Port Douglas

After not such a nice experience at the main pub in town (asked to leave after we had purchased drinks due to the pub no longer being dog friendly anymore) we found this gorgeous little cafe with a beautiful garden setting away from the street traffic. We had an amazing lunch here. Such a friendly cafe. We were welcomed with the lovely staff immediately getting us some water and our pup a bowl of water, then 3 times they came out to give our dog treats. My husband had the battered barramundi and chips (lovely and fresh) and I had the best Caesar salad. The coffee was delicious too. Can’t wait to try the breakfast next time as they looked delicious too. Very reasonable prices too....

This is a delightful cafe just off the busy McCrossan St. So glad the other place we looked at first were too busy! It’s also a lovely setting, comfortable to sit for a while. It can get very busy at times, but the coffee and food has been worth the wait each time we’ve come (4th visit today), and we were never rushed in order to get more people in. Eimear is the most wonderful person - always greeting people with a smile even when it seems to be busiest. Her friendly nature (and Irish accent) made this a must-come-back-to cafe, as much as the food and drink. The other staff were also lovely. Thanks, and we’ll come back again when we return...

Terrible service. Waited 5 min at the ‘please wait to be seated sign’, all the staff had already seen us but didn’t come to us. There was a big sign with all the juices for today, that’s why we came to this place. When we were placed we waited another 10 minutes for somebody to take our order, so we walked up to the bar to order but they said there will be ‘table service’. For another 10 minutes nobody came to us, even though we tried to make contact with the waiters. Finally someone walked pasted so we could order the juices. He said they couldn’t make juices for some reason. Why would you put a big sign if you can’t sell...
