Walter's River Cafe - BICTON

Visited for breakfast. The location and views are fantastic. Service was friendly and fast. The food was very good too. We had the bubble and squeak and the breakfast burger. Meals were filling without being too large and everything was cooked to perfection. Will definitely return.

Walter's Café is in a beautiful spot at Point Walter, with a lovely view of the river so we decided to book for Mother's Day lunch. Our daughter and her two children aged 3yrs and 6yrs came with us. My husband ordered an entrée sized plate of calamari with a side of hand-cut chips, I ordered a green salad with chips, my daughter ordered salmon and the two grandchildren each had a child-sized serving of fish and chips. We were all very disappointed. The salmon was undercooked and even when sent back, came back still undercooked, the hand-cut chips looked like wedges as they had the skin on and they were soggy and luke-warm, and the children tried the small chips but didn't like them (which is very unusual for them) and then left the rest of the meal. The restaurant was very busy but the waitresses were pleasant and helpful and the waiting time was quite acceptable. However, the quality of the food was abysmal which is such a shame as the venue is so nice. I would be very reluctant to take visitors there.

Fomos para um brunch, eles têm algumas opções que inclusive dão para compartilhar. O preço não é muito barato, mas a qualidade é muito boa. Destaque para os cafés, que vêm em umas xícaras enormes! E o local fica de frente para o rio, tem uma vista belíssima

Lovely location let down by standard of food and prices. Did have a friendly and helpful waiter who had a laugh and a joke. Judging by previous reviews this seems unusual. Was very busy when I visited but does need to up its game.

I have lived near this Cafe for your years and always enjoyed the view and food. I took the previous commentator there and was really embarrassed. I too had the brushcetta - $20 for a slice of bread, tomatoes and egg which all had no taste (no seasoning!). Since when are poarched eggs served on a board? The young staff did not seem interested in our feedback.This is council property licensed to the operators. The original family cafe concept seems to have been replaced by high-priced but poor food. They seem to be trading on the view!!
