I'd give them a 2.5 because it was better than a 2 but not quite good enough for a 3. Did not meet our expectations at all. The food was not up to the standard we expected for the price. $17 for an eggs benedict that felt more like cheap diner food. It wasn't bad food but compared to what they charge for it, it was pretty disappointing. There was a very long wait time too. Which wouldn't have mattered so much if the food was great but there's nothing worse than receiving average food after a long wait! It didn't seem that busy yet it was still quite chaotic. Overall we were pretty dissapointed with our experience and wouldn't recommend it.

Always a great place for a good coffee down by waterfront. Had toast & preserves & good quantity of both. Service was quick & pleasant

Food is well below average for the price, everything was under seasoned. Pretty sure my kranskys were heated in the fryer making them quite slimy.

Tea and coffee were great. I had the veggie breakfast which was a bit uninspired. No sauce or dressing, undercooked and rather hard tomato. Poached eggs were great and just how I asked for them. Nice sour dough bread. Pricey for what it was.

Honestly, dining here was the most confusing experience. We tried to order drinks from the menu but my red wine came out as a white wine. When I queried it, they tried to argue that it was the wine I ordered, eventually caving and telling me they don't have any red wine because they don't sell enough. Fair enough, but take it off the menu and don't argue with me about the white wine being what I ordered. I then tried to order a beer, they explained there were only two in the fridge of differing types, and as much as I tried to order the other beer, they ignored me and insisted I have this one specific beer. I gave up. Not to mention there was a price difference, and they weren't forthcoming with offering me a refund for the price difference even though they failed to tell me when ordering my chosen drink wasn't available which was evidently common knowledge to the team. And finally my beer didn't arrive until we had finished our meal and wanted to leave even though the place was very empty. Honestly the whole situation was confusing and frustrating and I didn't understand why they were so argumentative when we were just trying to make the limited options work. Which was a shame because the food was nice and came out quickly.

I hadn't been to this cafe for years. The owners/staff were very friendly and attentive. The coffee was nothing special. The cafe is still a haunt for surrounding office workers. But considering this and that some people would want something from the cabinet, the cabinet was bare. The poached eggs and bacon while reasonably priced were nothing special. Bland. The heyday of Arabica has obviously passed

Excellent place for brekky and or lunch. Coffee is very delicious as well. Staffs are friendly and efficient. Both mornings and afternoons can get busy but I think it’s also open on Saturdays and much quieter. Wifi available as well. Lots of variety of menus. The cabinet foods and baked goods are freshly made and very delicious. Highly recommended and would visit again :) please keep up the good service and food quality!
