Cameron RobertsonJanuary 18, 2014If you're a group of females expect to get a very attentive waiter. If you're a couple expect to get ignored.
Forget about weekends unless you're prepared to wait. For hours.
James @fridleySeptember 15, 2013Fail....! Waited long enough to get to the front of the line only to find it was the line to wait even longer. Pass...
Elliot ChanceAugust 10, 2015This place is ridiculous. You can barely move through the crowd and we were told at 2:30 there was an hour wait for a table. Go somewhere else.
Angus Not So YoungOctober 22, 2019Always overcrowded. Expensive and not worth the wait. Only good if “being seen” is high on your agenda
Prepare to wait a long time for a table. No matter when you turn up!
- Parking is getting impossible, as is getting a table. Too busy!
Al WyattJune 1, 2017WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK? this place is over whelming and they can't do anything. I just wanted a ham & cheese toastie... apparently that's too difficult
Not worth it anymore. Waaaaaaaaay too many people. 1hr 30min wait for a table.- Bradley WithamDecember 4, 2015Came here on a windy day, got the token and wait for our seat since it's full house. You can walk around and check out their famous pig "Kevin the bacon" and sheep. Foods is pretty okay,
- VivAugust 30, 2012Ladies, leave your name at the door for the 45 min wait and then go to the excellent Bendon shop next door for discounts on Bendon lingerie and Elle Macpherson intimates!
Duncan PJFebruary 1, 2015Breakfast and lunch only. Im surprised they are not open for dinner too given how popular it is.
Samuel BeckettMay 12, 2012Breakfast ends at 11:30 on a Saturday!? And you need to queue for an hour, so I would recommend eating first.

"Any place that has a Tokyo Bike shop at the back has my vote. Also sells some specialist coffee equipment. Great filter coffee."
