Melaleuca Port Douglas

Best Known For

Wonderful atmosphere, in a tropical setting. Great food, cooked using locally sourced ingredients. Fantastic cocktails and extensive wine list.

Take in ocean views as balmy breezes rustle overhead leaves at newly opened Melaleuca Port Douglas on Wharf Street. Boasting a fabulous alfresco courtyard with three giant mango trees forming a canopy above diners, as well as a chic indoor restaurant space, this fine diner combines relaxed and casual service with a Modern Australian menu to set the mood for a memorable meal. Visit for lunch and delve into light options such as tempura battered salt and pepper Moreton Bay bug tails, candied chilli, macadamia dust, lime and petit herb salad; while those dining at night under fairy lights may be enticed by beef cheeks, creamed potato, King trumpet mushrooms, baby carrots and leeks. Sunday brunch-goers won't go past pancakes, smoked bacon, maple syrup, strawberries and whipped cream.
