Lot 104

The meals here are okay. Prices just okay. It's usually somewhere we go if we can't think of anywhere else, purely based on the fact it's location is good.

Enjoyed two meals here recently while staying on The Esplanade. Was a little apprehensive given the reviews from around the web, but I actually found dining here was pretty good.

Breakfast was good, corn fritters a little bland, but side portions moderately prices and generous. Really nice hollandaise sauce (always a bonus). Kids meals - good.

The menu system is really hard to follow, had planned to dine early with their 3-6PM tapas and also couldn't find the Sunday schnitzel special anywhere to be found. Had seen it displayed on Fri but not visible on the Sunday?

Website has a broken link in the top navigation "menu" - so if you are looking - go to: http://lot104.com.au/menu/ to find it, it will give you an idea.

Chicken sandwich on lunch menu was a winner. Service was pleasant but for some reason I felt I shouldn't ask about the confusion about menus - I encourage you to do so though. We just ordered whatever and were quite happy with selections.

Coffee is good! Be sure to ask what size coffee's are though. Breakfast & Lunch coffees were fine, but we also went back for an after dinner coffee and were served the smallest cups in the universe. LOL.

Found the atmosphere on the evening pleasant with some live street music going on.

Recommended - give it a try. The esplanade cafe businesses quality comes and goes and it is just a matter of whatever happens at the time, I guess.

Really not impressed. I was expecting great things with just how popular this place is, but they just didn't deliver. Service was ok and so was food but nothing at all stand out and prices could be a little better. Everything was basic food with nothing flash. Just average I'm afraid.

The setting as the previous viewer disclosed, is ideal. Lovely views of the beach with a fresh, comfortable and funky atmosphere.
I was disappointed with the quality of the food. Everything was a touch bland and not of equal quality to price. The drinks here were quite reasonable though. I paid $11 for a recorderlig whereas I pay $13-15 in Melbourne. This is probably one of te reasons people pack in like sardines come friday/saturday nights.

Had breakfast here Sunday morning with a group of friends, the setting and location are ideal and the prices are reasonable but this is where the positives end. Firstly the waitress advised we could order from any menu. Once we were at the counter they would not allow us to order from any menu except breakfast with no apology. The waitress also continually bought drinks to our table with no idea what they were, one of our juices was incorrect, another was in a glass with a large crack in it. We won't be returning here.

Approximate cost: $20
