The food is overpriced and quite mediocre—I've had better meals at McDonald's. We decided to give it a shot based on some decent reviews, but it turned out to be a big mistake. We ordered the burgers, which were $28 each, and honestly, I could have made something better during my college days using frozen patties from Coles. There was no drink menu; the young girl serving us could only offer her "Toblerone special," which didn't inspire much confidence. I wouldn't trust her to pour a glass of wine, to be honest! The only redeeming aspect is that it's located near the beach, making it a nice spot for a post-meal stroll.

The online menu is completely different from what they actually have available; most of the items were out of stock, and they didn't even have any ketchup! What was meant to be a nice lunch ended up being the worst meal we've ever had in Tasmania. Save yourself the trouble and stay away! Also, doesn't it seem odd that all the glowing five-star reviews are from 'local guides'? As for parking, skip it and just drive to the BP servo in St Helens for a sausage roll from the pie warmer—it will be much better!

The fries were incredibly good, the service was excellent, and their jelly tart was amazing. Overall, I'd rate the food, service, and atmosphere all 5 out of 5!

The chef was taking care of not only his duties but also the front of house who must have been late. He had a rush of people to take care of as it was 12:00pm. He was friendly, quick service considering the circumstances, and the coffees he made were sublime. Warm blueberry muffin to accompany them was also delicious. Props to the chef interim barista! Food: 5

Fair enough, when the sun is shining and it's a public holiday, people will be out and about enjoying the day. The young women that was working this day, did such an INCREDIBLE JOB! Not only was she the barista, but she was also the bartender, waiter, cashier, cleaner, and I'm sure she had to handle many other jobs during the day! I couldn't commend her effort enough, being the ONLY front of house staff, she did an AMAZING job, and remained calm, kind, and on top of all the jobs. Not only was the food tasty, but she made a killer coffee too! Workers like this have to juggle so many roles and tasks, and to do it alone on a busy day is a reflection of her work ethic and attention to detail. I hope the business owner sees this review and acknowledges the effort of this particular staff member. Would definitely come back again.
