Lake Barrine Tea House, Restaurant and Cottage Accommodation is a mere 1 hour drive from Cairns via the scenic Gillies Highway which brings you to the cool atmosphere of the Atherton Tablelands, where you will come across a beautiful, enchanting natural lake hidden in World Heritage Rainforest. Lake Barrine is something special as it is actually a water filled crater left by a volcanic eruption approximately 10,000 years ago.
The multi-award winning Devonshire Teas can be enjoyed on the balcony of the charming 90-year-old teahouse while taking in the serene lake views. Our memorable Devonshire Tea consists of locally grown tea and coffee served with our secret recipe scones going back four generations which are presented with a locally grown ooray plum (a naturally grown rainforest fruit) and blueberry jam and freshly whipped cream.
We also serve a selection of homemade cakes including gluten-free options.
