“ Absolutely love Marina Coffee! This gem at Breakwater Marina has quickly become my go to spot for a peaceful coffee by the water. The views are stunning, and the vibe is calm and welcoming, perfect for a morning coffee or brunch. The coffee is always excellent. So is the food. Staff are friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. The space is beautifully done simple, clean, and lets the marina view shine. If you're in Townsville and haven’t tried this place yet, you’re missing out. Highly recommend! ”

“ We came to Marina Coffee on a whim whilst waiting for our greyhound bus and it was the best cafe we could have stumbled across! Set on the marina with beautiful views, the team are incredible, so friendly and welcoming, they couldn’t have done more for us!

One of the best coffees I’ve had and great pricing all round! 10/10 would recommend, we will absolutely be back!!! Thankyou xx ”
“ Had an amazing time, beautiful view and sooo many crabs fun to spot and count how many you see. Got the Spanish mackerel tacos absolutely delicious and saucy, drinks were nice, and the service was beautiful. lovely man greeted and chatted after our meal an asked how everything went. And was super cheap for such a great time Would love to come here again! ”
“ Amazing coffee and stellar service! A must visit breakfast spot if you’re in Townsville. The classic breakfast with scrambled eggs was delicious. The only downside was the salad with dressing that was not mentioned on the menu. This was a problem for the person who doesn’t want salad or dressing with their breakfast. Had we known we would have asked for it to be omitted. The eggs Benny with bacon was also delicious but the poached eggs were sadly overcooked. (Others at other tables seemed to have had nice runny yolks. I was just unlucky. ) Again, the addition of salad with dressing for breakfast was not ideal. A lovely place to sit and enjoy the sunshine while eating a very nice breakfast. Second time here and will return! ”
