    Best coffee in whole area. And added two marvelous babycinos (topping, sprinkles, the lot) for free!

    Nice looking shop, it got me excited when I saw the synesso but coffee hardly has a bang... Was pretty disappointed, sorry but there is much better in surrounding streets..

    So far away from Gilligans and the lagoon, but was worth the walk every time, cool little Setup, staff were always friendly and likeable and the coffee was always brilliant..

    Thanks again BeanHunter for saving me on a work visit to a foreign region! Bang Espresso Bar is great and presented a classic latte with great tasting coffee. A funky place.

    This place used to have the best coffee and service in Cairns although over the last few months something has happened! All the usual staff have gone and the new ones are not only unfriendly they also make substandard coffee, bitter and sad. Please come back Errol we need you.

    I quite enjoyed my coffee from Bang but was most impressed with the array of cakes and sweets in the cabinet - everything looked fresh unlike the coffee chains - unfortunately I didn't get to try them.

    I just picked up a takeaway coffee however I did note the that the music playing... Read more

    Wow, what a great find...here on a work trip and in need of coffee. I had lunch here and my Asian noodle salad was fresh, light and crisp. Skim latte was beautifully smooth and rich in flavor. What a winner, will be making this a must every time I'm in Cairns!

    Was disappointed when it shut down. I loved bang. Grind is okay but not the same 'bang' if you will. Sad to see them go.

    I always visit the guys at Bang when I go to Cairns, the coffee is always consistently good. The baristas there seem to really know what they're doing. The coffee has a distinctly earthy note to it, but it is hands above anything else beaing served in the Cairns CBD. The food has always been a... Read more

    If your into your coffee then this is the ONLY place in Cairns you need to visit. Don't even bother with anyone else ! Even after a long day making coffee at one of Cairn's major events, my staff and I love to kick back and chillout at BANG.

    There is a bald man working here (it no longer is bang.....instead called Grind) and he is the most condescending guy I've ever met in my life. I will NEVER step foot in here again. Coffee was nice, and food fantastic though. Even if it was slightly overpriced. Shame. Maybe loose baldy man and I'll be back.

    On a recent trip to Cairns I was wondering about where to get a decent coffee??? After reading the reviews about BANG - I popped in for a takeaway and was very impressed! I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys great coffee.

    Bang bang. Guys that introduced specialty coffee to cairns, set the bar high and are keeping it there. Recent change in coffee supplier I believe and for the better. Double ristretto has slight berry with milk chocolate. Then a caramel hazelnut finish.

    I went to Cairns for a wedding and was apprehensive about the coffee. After reading reviews about Bang, I decided to try it and was amazed!

    The decor is just brilliant and the baristas craft perfect esspresso using a Synesso machine and a Mazzer grinder. The milk is textured to silk... Read more

    This is one of the best coffees i have had. A shock to me that you can get this in Cairns. Had a picollo then a ristretto. Both made exceptionally. In my top 5 coffees of all time. Great little atmosphere as well. Love that they use organic milk as well.

    I visited this cafe several times whilst spending some time in Cairns and was quite impressed by the funky vibe, Melbourne atmosphere and professional coffee. black coffee was well extracted with a well rounded velvety mouth feel, good acidity with a citrus and berry hit and a mild cocoa linger....

    Coffee was great, a rich, smooth blend made by someone who knows what they are doing. The service was fast and friendly and the breakfast was delicious.

    Following the beanhunter reviews while in Cairns on holidays.
    My first coffee in Cairns, early Saturday morning, not a lot of people around, in fact Cairns is a bit of a ghost town these days.
    Spoke with the manager (can't remember his name) nice chap.
    Told me they used Supreme... Read more
