Booked indoor table but seated outdoors, which was difficult for disabled person because of steps. No children's menu offered even though there were 2 small children in the party. We had to ask for someone to serve us - table seemed to be totally forgotten. Toast was burnt.

Our order of decidedly tasteless calamari on a nice salad just didn’t turn up. No server even looked at us or our table even when they were passing by us delivering food to tables all around us - WHO ALL CAME IN AFTER US! Just ridiculous. Surely if you were scanning the room you’d notice we didn’t have our meals. We asked what had happened. ‘Oh sometimes the paper runs out’. WHAT! SO no order was received in the kitchen. Who know? We then got a peace offering of our ordered fries. It STILL took at least 15 minutes for our meals to come. I asked was there a manager on. No doesn’t work Tuesdays. No effort to say a proper sorry. It was too hard for any of them. No offer to take fries off the bill. We won’t be going back. That’s for sure.

Ordered chilli eggs and bacon, no bread. Got runny “scrambled” eggs that were terrible and revisited me for the rest of the day. Forgot the bacon which arrived later. My friend got her salad after that. Barely anyone in the cafe and yet 6 staff standing around chatting. We had to call them to us. Very disappointed after what used to be a great place to eat. Don’t offer what you can’t cook! Won’t go back.

Very well organised, although we booked on short notice, everything was ready with a choice of 2 tables. The atmosphere is relaxed, the staff are pleasant and attentive, without being overbearing. We were having brunch on the outdoor deck, the food & drinks were served in good timing, all ingredients tasted fresh, to be repeated !

Such a nice open space to relax and enjoy your food. The staff were all very friendly and service was fast. It didn’t take long for our food to come out and it was of great quality and taste. My husband had the eggs Benedict and thought it was a little “strange” for his liking and he said he wouldn’t get that again. I ordered the breakfast burger and it was light and tasty. I thought it was the perfect meal for lunch time. I’m not sure about the Swiss cheese though in the kids toastie - it’s not what kids are used to. Just stick to tasty cheese please. They will love it. We enjoyed our meal and look forward to returning soon. Coffee was also great. Thank you

Wonderful to sit out on the deck with family from interstate. The service and staff were great, just wish they had worn their masks properly. May seem unfair customers are maskless, but really important for the staff’s protection.
