    Stranded in the gastronomical wasteland that is West Gosford, with only the RSL Bistro, Maccas and…read moreKFC to eat, this is like discovering Tahiti and all it's delights after months adrift at sea thinking hope had abandoned me. For six weeks this is where I got the only decent coffee in the area each morning. Many mornings we enjoyed a breakfast worthy of any of the best cafes in the big cities. Even Jimmy's take-a-way lunches came in handy when I need to take one to work. But dinner...! That was the surprise. No, it's not a fancy restaurant and this isn't fine dining so let's not get carried away. This is a cafe by day, so it's the same by night but with food to surprise. Leaning on Jame's Italian heritage (yes, he introduced himself to me the evening I was there) the fare has some of that ethnic bent but it's very much a fusion menu.

    terrible coffee, terrible service and systems…read more Firstly having a coffee size that requires two shots of coffee but asking you to pay extra 50 cents for double shot??? So the choice is you can make my coffee correctly for an extra charge or you can give me a diluted cup of warm milk?? This sets the real idea of the cafe, that they do no know anything about coffee. My husband and I used this coffee shop every day when commuting at 5/6 am when nothing else was open, but the coffee is so inconsistent, one day I could tolerate it because otherwise I would fall asleep at the wheel but after that it was too much. The coffee is watery, weak and never made correctly. Most likely because it is badly managed you have a person taking orders who also prepares food so when she is off in fairy land the barista is taking coffee orders with one hand and making them with an other.. May I suggest that they try one of their large coffees and see that it's an art form and if they did it properly they may actually make some money or customers?

    What a gorgeous spot for a restaurant. I came for lunch with my mum and we enjoyed the view and…read morewatching an ominous storm rolling in. It is quite a large space with light wood and white tones to compliment the maritime feel. I had an attack of photo shyness which is a shame as both the venue and food were snap worthy. We started with the garlic pizza which was melt in the mouth and a nice change from your usual garlic bread. Plenty of gooey melted cheese too. We really shouldn't have ordered it though as our fish and chip main was sizeable. 3 crispy battered pieces of fish on top of plenty of chips and a nicely dressed salad of mixed leaves, capsicum and cucumber. I'm stuffed! The staff were lovely. Friendly and professional. Would be a beautiful spot for a wedding reception but not sure if they cater for that.

    Overpriced for a self serve restaurant. If you sit indoors they will serve you but they won't walk…read moreout on the balcony! Placed on Brisbane Waters which resembles a muddy lake and can smell at times as it doesn't flush regularly. Food is 25% overpriced and a beer and a wine cost me $18. Kids meals cost $15 and come with a drink and ice cream which again is $5 too much when you want to attract families regularly. Sent one pasta dish back as it came out cold and they didn't apologise. Steak was over cooked but the fish and chips were good. Pasta de mare was advertised as local seafood but salmon isn't a local fish! It took well over 35mins to get our meals while there are less than 15 people here and most have eaten already. Kids are complaining. I'm not sure what's going on at this place. Surf and turf over $50! Parking is limited. Lunch = $140 for two adults and 3 children, self serve. I can't say much about the staff as I wasn't able to talk to anyone as they avoid you on the balcony, unless they clear tables to make room for more money...I mean customers. No atmosphere, no music on and nothing to keep the kids occupied. Has not improved since Iguana Joe's days. I'm cannot justify coming back. Better off eating fish and chips at the park adjacent.
