"If in Bowen you'd like a special bread, this is the place to be. Sourdough, Rye, Spelt and yes, Sourdough Baguettes like the artisan ones in France: Good work!"
"We arrived in Bowen looking for somewhere to eat but could not find anything open so after driving around near the marina we saw a sign saying "Cafe" and "Interpretive Centre" at the bottom of a hill and were not sure what to expect however after driving up the hill we were most impressed with a mod..."ern cafe with stunning 360 deg views of Bowen and the Coral Sea. The staff were cheerful, the atmosphere pleasant and we enjoyed our breakfast immensely. Some of the history of a shipwreck and fate of the crew is displayed on the wall. The place is clean and the lawns and gardens well cared for. Plenty of parking and there is even a small observation tower. Highly recommended and we would go there again for a meal.
