Had the beef burger. Very tasty and very filling. Cafe latte perfect and strong. Just a little on the pricey side.

This is a great place to visit for a quick stop whenever you're in the area. The meals are of high quality and are absolutely delicious. I ordered the pancakes and would definitely purchase again in the future. The service is very quick and all of the staff were friendly. Two thumbs up.

Approximate cost: $17

Pricey but decent breakfasts (very Sorrento). The smashed avo was a highlight. The orange juice that didn't come was not.I ordered hot salmon on the side and received cold salmon, but really, things are okay.

Approximate cost: $60

Not the cheapest place to go for pancakes. But the pancakes are amazing. We have been here a number of times and keep going back for more. The staff are friendly and the meals / pancakes always come out looking like something in a magazine. Yummy

I highly recommend.

Went there for break key on the weekend. It has a lovely ambiance.... Not too sterile looking and the food is really good. My friends had the big breakfast and I had the pancakes which all agreed were lovely. Will go back again.

Imagine holiday season and every man and his family hungry and looking for a seat - well after walking up and down the Main Street in Sorrento we were back at Buckley Chance. I'd first seen this place easily 20 years ago but never been in. We looked out front and it was full, then inside and full too. By chance we noticed a huge group coming out then realized there was also a rear dining section to this restaurant and went in and grabbed a booth which comfortably seated the 4 adults and 3 pre-teen boys. The staff were surprisingly friendly and attentive in such a busy place with every table almost to capacity. The menu was varied from breakys of bacon eggs to foccacias and pancakes. Everyone on the table ordered something different, the pancakes my hubby ordered with mixed berries looked to die for, my chicken foccacia was average but tasted ok and coffee great! We all enjoyed it so much that I returned a week later with hubby and son and this time I had a pancake breaky with crispy bacon which was yum and hubby and son both had pancakes which they both enjoyed. The place is very busy which I'm sure is seasonal, the staff are attentive even with the restaurant at capacity. Definitely recommend. Price was reasonable and expected during holiday season.

This place has a good atmosphere being right near the Beach. The food is great but a bit too expensive for a family of 4.

Look, the pancakes are good but the service is average and its expensive. They could try a little harder to make you feel more welcome. They do however provide paper and crayons for the kids which is nice. I had no help with a pram and two kids which was not nice! A seasonal place that I'm sure picks up in the Summer. As mentioned, the pancakes are pretty good though!!

Approximate cost: $20

Hubby and I came with 2 kids, 1 in a pram. Staff were excellent. Food was also very very good. The big breakfast with the pancake was great but hubby said pancake a little cold. Loved the kids menu with colouring in and the crayons but they need to do scrambled eggs and bacon for kids too - not just adults. That was the only critisicm we had. Otherwise - definitely try this place when next in Sorrento!
