There are rankings and then there are Beanhunter rankings.

Beanhunter was founded in 2009 in Australia and now see’s over 1.3 million user sessions a month, with 28,000 cafés listed globally and 100,000 reviews written.

If you are in the coffee industry, Beanhunter is the most respected measure of success. Reviews are by coffee “people” about coffee “people” for coffee “people”.

The Top 100 is a who's who of coffee illuminati from around the country. They devote their lives to the bean, trying to extract that perfect shot and texture the silkiest milk, searching for coffee perfection.

So Cairns, how lucky you are to have 3 cafes make the Top 100 cafes in Australia list.
