Was User at Runways Cafe a mag?
Met up with some others for dinner here. Very friendly staff and good food. It is so much fun watching the planes come and go and taxi on the runway while you eat. Food was very good . Friends gave it a two thumbs up and we all would go again! They do close early ( 6 PM when we went ) so double check before going. View all feedback.

What User dislikes about Runways Cafe:
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. Our glasses came full of red lipstick (neither of us were wearing). The salad that normally comes with bacon came without. First we were told it never comes with it (we had it the week before and it did come with it) and then we were told that they were out (while we were eating wraps THAT HAD BACON IN THEM).

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. Our glasses came full of red lipstick (neither of us were wearing). The salad that normally comes with bacon came without. First we were told it never comes with it (we had it the week before and it did come with it) and then we were told that they were out (while we were eating wraps THAT HAD BACON IN THEM). When politely requesting a discount the manager (within an earshot) made very nasty comments about us. We spoke with the manager and she was just incredibly argumentative, and apparently we "should get used to glasses being dirty becuase that happens everywhere and all the time". It was overall a very negative experience.

Plenty of room, great selection and a great view of the runway to watch the great variety of planes come and go in relaxing style while waiting for passengers.

I feel like this place has gotten better over the last couple of years. My wife and I used to go for breakfast on the weekends. Since having kids had has become a favourite place for weekend breakfasts. The food is standards breakfast fare but the experience of seeing the planes come and go makes for a nice environment.I recently had the opportunity to eat lunch here a few times and was very impressed. The menu items are not very complex but they are well executed and tasty.I look forward to going back again, and again.

It had been a while since we last visited this restaurant, but my wife and I were in the mood to try something new so we decided to give it a shot. What a pleasant surprise it was when all of our dishes turned out to be fantastic! The bruschetta bread was exceptional, my wife's pulled pork sandwich was delicious, and my chicken Schnitzel sandwich was outstanding. The chili chickpea soup was also amazing and the salad was fresh. The service was good and friendly, and we are looking forward to returning in the future.

We absolutely love their home fries and the eggs are always cooked perfectly to our liking. The service is attentive and we appreciate that. As picky coffee drinkers, we also enjoy their coffee.
