Love the coffee from here. Serves are double shots. So I asked if they could do a shot and 1/2. Which they obliged. Only draw back, not enough seating to enjoy the coffee. Cart is located on the outer side of Rustys Market, so we shared a picnic table inside with other market goers.

In Cairns for the weekend and so we tried this highly rated hole in the wall coffee spot. Plenty of locals were there so that was a good sign. Located at Rusty’s markets it was not too busy at 7am. The FW was good and the staff were super friendly. Top marks!

I had the best coffee from Barista sista at Rusty's markets. The flat white and the espresso were spot on and the service was friendly and knowledgable.

This place brings the best coffee both normal and decaf. If I was looking for a fault the only thing I could say is that I had to drink it out of the takeaway cup. I would normally go somewhere else, but the coffee here is so good and the service is excellent everybody is smiling and everyone is talking cheerfully. If you are in Cairns and you want a coffee Go to Rusty's Market and find Barista Sista's
