What Travelling2da doesn't like about The Big O:
This place used to be have decent to go for something to eat, it has went down hill very fast. The food is rotten bad cheap quality and it's either overcooked or half raw. The place isn't that clean, salt and pepper pots have dirt caked on the sides of them, the tables are not properly clean and the cutlery isn't clean. The young waiter is more interested in his mobile phone than doing his job, we got someone else's... View all feedback. What smilecostnotthing likes about The Big O:

Despite mixed reviews, The Big O offers a decent option for those seeking a hearty meal. Some patrons have complained about long wait times, mixed-up orders, and lackluster service, while others have praised the top-quality food, reasonable prices, and friendly staff. The cafe's ambiance may not be the most glamorous, but the delicious fry-ups and welcoming atmosphere make it a hidden gem worth considering. While some long-time customers have noticed a decline in quality over the years, others still appreciate the value and taste of the offerings. Overall, The Big O is a hit-or-miss spot that might be worth a try for a satisfying meal.
