Guyala Cafe

Best Known For

Quack Quack: smoked and sous vide duck breast, duck crackling, duck fat potatoes, lemon myrtle sauerkraut and red wine jus.

Inspiring, inclusive and healthy, Guyala Café on Smith Street in Cairns acts as an integration between the broader community and Spinal Life Australia. Named after the white-breasted sea eagle, this first-of-its-kind fully accessible community centre for the Spinal Life facility has a beautiful fit-out, thoughtful menu utilising local and indigenous ingredients and an experienced team of professionals. Expect creative dishes from morning to night, perhaps starting your day with a chilli crab omelette, banana flower, fiendish chilli jam, black tobiko, salmon roe and palm heart slaw, served with toasted ciabatta. Later diners enjoy smoked and grilled octopus to start a memorable meal, followed by slow-braised and smoked beef shoulder, with sides of red cabbage and smashed chat potatoes.
