The food here is delicious! Huge variety of menu options and I love the unique decor. They were really accommodating, allowing me book for a large number of people and the service was pretty good considering the size of the group. Food is definitely worth the wait!

Approximate cost: $15

Our experience at the Red House Cafe was very inconsistent. The staff were nice, but a bit too laid back and not attentive enough to our needs. The place is advertised as having good airconditioning, but we found it a little hot and stuffy.

The decor is lovely. The cafe is situated in an old railway station, and there is railway memorabilia and gorgeous vintage pictures on the walls, truly a lovely vibe.

The coffee was apparently decent, but my cup of tea was so disgusting I didn't drink it - and I will drink anything. It was so weak and nasty, having been made with a tea leaves dangler, rather than a tea bag. I even requested a second tea bag, but perhaps the brand they use is bad, because I couldn't get the tea strong enough to drink. So awful tasting!

The breakfasts are a great idea - you can build your own breakfast, and the prices are reasonable. But half the items were overcooked and a few were undercooked, so there was a feeling of everything being hurried and poorly considered. I cook great poached eggs at home, so if I am paying for them, I don't want overcooked eggs!

The serving sizes were fabulously generous, and I realise this is quite a new cafe. I am not in a hurry to go back, but I can imagine the place might become more consistent as time goes on.

There is great potential for this cafe to be amazing, given the beautiful location and the effort that has gone into the design and decor. With airconditioning and a better cook, I am sure this place will be fantastic!
