Ferntree Rainforest Lodge - Dining

Cape Tribulation is situated between two World Heritage listed areas - The Daintree Rainforest and The Great Barrier Reef. It is only natural then that the Resort restaurants design their menus to suit their surrounds. A selection of delicious vegetarian meals are also served.

The Cassowary Café

The Cassowary Café is situated overlooking the main pool at Ferntree Rainforest Lodge. The Café consists of 2 dining huts built into the rainforest along with a main building and outside deck. The tropical style adds to the ambience and wonder of the Lodge itself.

The Café is casual, fun and relaxed and open for breakfast and dinner.

A delicious continental buffet selection is available for breakfast between 6:30am to 9:30am daily.

For dinner, the menu offers a range of pastas, gourmet pizzas, grilled steaks, fish and chicken as well as an extensive salad bar and a “sides” selection. The Café is open for dinner from 6pm.

The Bar

Ferntree Rainforest Lodge has two bars, each by one of the Resort's two pools. Cassowary Cafe Bar is just the right spot to enjoy a pre-dinner drink and the Daintree Bar offers a lively atmosphere with pool table, internet terminals and a juke box - a great place to relax with old friends or make new ones.
