What Enrique Hinojosa likes about Straits Cafe:
We had a Xmas lunch here for about 20 people. Meals had to be pre-ordered 24 hours in advance which a few of the guests weren't happy about, but it was a good idea and everything went so smoothly. All meals were brought out straight away and most of us were happy with our meals. They were quite generous servings too. I would return. Bon-bons were put on the tables which was a nice touch and Jane the chef was extremel... View all feedback. What Aleix Velázquez doesn't like about Straits Cafe:
The service staff work really hard to cope with more than a few customers. Despite writing down our breakfast order it was completely wrong and we had to wait for the correct order. The second morning was more successful with excellent scrambled eggs. It was confusing that one staff member made toast for us the first day but another one said we should make our own in the toaster. People came in to order takeaway coff... View all feedback.

The café inside the Rendezvous Hotel in Brisbane received mixed reviews from customers, with some praising the hardworking staff who remained cheerful under pressure despite chaotic scenes in the kitchen. However, others were disappointed with the service, including forgotten orders and items and long waits. The limited menu options were a common complaint, with some finding the prices too high for what was offered. However, a positive review highlighted the smooth experience of a Christmas lunch for a large group, noting generous portions and helpful staff. Overall, the café seems to have potential but needs improvement in terms of service and menu options to satisfy all its customers.
