I went to Barnacle Bills whilst on my Honeymoon. The food was fantastic and as a Sea Food lover found every mouthful was superb. The only downside was after you've eaten they seem to rush you out. But in general you can't fault this super restaurant and I will be going again.

I was in Cairns on a vacation trip with a tour group of about 30 people, and we went to Barnacle Bill's one night. It was the best! Really great seafood, and this is coming from someone who lives on the East Coast of the U.S., where we have some really great seafood ourselves! Really a highlight of our trip to Cairns. We had great food, and really great service considering the size of our group. It was a really memorable night. I hope to go back there someday. Highly recommended!

Recently visted Cairns as my son has relocated and he couldn't wait to to take us to has favourite restaurant. It was just amazing, food decadent, great atmosphere, staff exceptional and "Tony, The Proprieter" is the most awesome guy, we had a such a really great night.
Will never order barramundi in NSW again, the Barra up there IS TO DIE FOR!! Ordered the barra with avocado and hollandaise sauce, just heavenly..... What more can I say, except thanks for a such a wonderful evening, we can't wait to return. Definitely recommend Barnacle Bills to everyone wishing for a beautiful meal whilst in Cairns.

I chose Barnacle Bills in Cairns to celebrate my mothers suprise 50th birthday on Thursday evening 22/6/06. I could not have wished for a better venue. Being seafood lovers we found the food to be amazing, so fresh and tasty, and reasonably priced, and the staff made us feel so welcome and paid us particular attention all night, making sure the evening was a success. A huge thank you to the staff, we had an unforgettable evening.

About a fortnight ago i came acrooss the big barneys sign! From that point my memory of this great seafood platter feast i had with my family eight years before this moment.... i knew that barneys restaurant was there for an award of all the hard work i did in my year 12 studies. Next thing ya know me and my mates were inside our version of the white castle ordering the best seafood on the planet! Of course we ordered a seafood platter just incase you were curious. At the end of the day we were full to the brink and walked out of Barnicle Bills waving to the stuff with a smile on our faces that would make a grown man cry.
I recommend BARNEYS to not just seafood lovers, but all of the general public itself!

GO BARNEY YEAH

We went to Barnacle Bills on the recommendation of a local taxi driver, several years ago. He didn't steer us wrong. The only flaw the place has is that it ought to be three times bigger so that all the folks who want to enjoy it don't have to wait so long to get inside! The seafood was some of the best I've had in my entire life.

I ate in Barnacle Bills in June 2004 and the food was just fabulous. It is an amazing restaurant with wonderful staff and even better food. Id strongly recommend it to anyone visiting Cairns, it is one attraction not to be missed.

I was in Cairns 3 years ago and ate at Barnacle Bill's on 3 different nights. That's when I found out that "Buggs" were rock lobster. The food was beyond excellent.
I'm going back to Cairns this September, and of course I'm going to eat at Barnacle Bill's. I'm looking forward to eating there.
I can't say enough good things about this very fine restaurant.
If you go to Cairns stop in and you'll be as impressed as I was.
Have a great trip!!

14 years ago my husband, daughter and I had a holiday in Cainrns. We had dinner at Barnacle Bills and have always remembered the name and the great food we had. We are delighted to be going back to Cairns next week and are thrilled to find you are still there. My daughter was 2 yrs old last visit. Can't wait to eat at Barnacle bill's next week!
