Very disappointing experience. I'm not one to do reviews normally. We came hoping for a lovely lunch and a nice treat, but unfortunately it was a real let down. We ordered a medium-rare steak and a chicken burger. The steak was tough as old boots, there was nothing medium-rare about it and it was incredibly dry and difficult to eat. My daughter nearly choked on a piece while trying to eat it. My partner couldn’t finish the chicken burger either, as it was also exceptionally dry. We also two little cakes, hoping they might at least be a nice way to finish our meal, but they were only average. At $93 for lunch, it was simply not money well spent. We had looked forward to this being a nice treat for our family, so leaving feeling disappointed was especially frustrating. No one came to ask how our meal was or clear the plate that was on our table from the previous customer either. I waited 10 minutes then put it on another table. Sadly, we won’t be back.

Today was my first time taking my baby to a café by ourselves, and I was honestly a little nervous. Even though I didn't order much, the staff kindly prepared a high chair for us, and when I asked if the babyccino could be made without the cocoa powder, they happily made a new one. I really appreciated that. I was so busy looking after my baby that I only managed to take one bite of my cake. I asked if I could have any small paper bag to take it home, but instead they found a perfectly sized cake box for it. That small gesture genuinely touched me. Just as we were about to leave, my baby found the hard-boiled egg I had brought from home. (I wasn't planning to feed it to her in the café, but she suddenly spotted it and insisted—I'm so sorry about that!) She dropped it on the floor and made quite a mess. After I cleaned everything up, one of the staff members came over and handed me a hard-boiled egg, saying they had seen the whole sequence of events. I was so touched that I had to fight back tears. Thank you so, so much for your kindness. It turned what could have been a stressful first café outing into a memory I'll always treasure. You've definitely won me over—my wallet belongs to you now! ❤️

The food here is amazing, we love the cabinet food, the soup, the quiche....delicious. It's our favourite stop on the way to the ferry. Parking can be awkward but there's always the Spotlight carpark.
