What Abbie Mitchell likes about Cafe On The Water:

View all feedback. What NBRMan doesn't like about Cafe On The Water:
Popped in for a coffee and a snack. If you don't want ice cream or waffles don't bother. coffee was tepid waffle was half cooked and the man serving used his hygienic blue gloves to open till pick up money etc as well as handle food. Will not be going back. View all feedback.

Since rebranding from Wafflemeister, this café has struggled to maintain its appeal. The menu has dwindled, lacking variety and popular items like waffles, which leaves it feeling underwhelming. Service issues have also been reported, with customers experiencing unprofessional behavior and unkempt dining areas. Despite a pleasant ambiance and commendable drink options, the staff's attitude and limited food choices detract from the experience. While there are glimpses of potential with thoughtful touches like non-disposable cutlery, the overall atmosphere conveys more of a fast-food vibe than that of a welcoming café. The establishment is in dire need of a revamp.
