The 50 best cheap eats in Toowoomba

Sunday lunch-easy to find a seat-blankets & pillows for a cooler day.Mama Buddha’s Lamb Curry-good quantity-very tasty.One of us loved it but too much Butter Chicken Sauce for me.Lemon & Berry Iced Tea was very refreshing.Service was good-polite & efficient.Prices are good .Would definitely recommend.

Just wonderful service I was greeted and seated immediately, coffee came exactly as requested with a cute little froth bear! And the cake was delicious!

The Finch Cafe is my favourite place to visit in Toowoomba. The team is so warm and welcoming and the coffee is so so good. They find me here almost every day. Charlotte and Emily are always working hard to provide the best service to their customers and they make a delicious coffee. If you’re looking for a good meal, a great coffee or something different with their specialty drinks… head down town to the Finch Cafe!

Food hwre is amazing. I Ordered the eggs, Benedict on a Croissant. The eggs where cooked to Perfection. The flavour or the bacon. The hollandaise sauce was balanced and very delicious. The Pancakes was very yummy. The mango and the side Fruit was nice with a Little bit of cinnamon. The staff are not on the ball some times but still was good :-)

The food was so good! It was the right mix of savoury taste. Absolutely perfect! 👌 Will definitely be back! The hot chocolate was perfect not bitter and not sweet! Incredibly impressed!

Managed to get a table at 8.30am in the morning on a Saturday during carnival of flowers weekend. I had called first to reserve, but they weren't taking bookings, however I was told it's a fairly quick turnover so if you do have to wait it won't be long. As it turns out, I didn't have to wait at all. Lovely fella with a beard, got me seated, organised my coffee straight away. I ordered the Eggs Benny, which was delicious. There was very little time to wait between ordering and receiving food or drink. Overall a great experience, all the staff I dealt with were great 👍

We had a lovely breakfast here over the Easter long weekend. The food was delicious, especially the roasted Goombungee mushroom dish (holy sh^t!). I wouldn't hesitate to return here or recommend this place to my friends when they visit Toowoomba 👌🏻

Sofra Turkish was a lovely experience with great food and ambience. The service was warm and welcoming. We had the banquet for 2 and was good value and a way to taste a few dishes and all were very tasty. You will need to make a booking ahead if time as even midweek it was very busy.

We had a great time at Sofra, the atmosphere was amazing and I loved their deco. Their service was on-point. A special mention to CAN, he made our night. The food was great but I think next time we will skip the main meal and go straight to dessert. We saw the next table's dessert and really wished we were all sharing so I can taste them all. As we were a party of 2 and dinner left us with little room for dessert to order more than 2 servings. All in all we loved everything we ordered, Sofra is worth a visit if you are stopping in Toowoomba.

Easily a top 5 restaurant in Toowoomba - consistently delicious meals with good service. Large serving sizes, great value. Always bring guests from out of town here as they never disappoints. I have tried many dishes from their menu; the mezze platter, mixed grill and sundae are particular highlights.

Absolutely brilliant feed. Mixed grill and Turkish delight sundae……unbeatable. The meat was tender and had that nice coal smoke. The staff are quick and friendly.

Absolutely immaculate food, really good service, very attentive without being overly so. Vibe was great, would highly recommend .

Beautifully decorated with a great atmosphere. The staff are attentive and gave great recommendations. The star of the banquet for me was definitely the marinated meats, so juicy, tender and flavorful! A must-try in Toowoomba!

Wow. Amazing experience. Food was delicious and had such a great range of flavour profiles. Blown away by the quality and quantity of food for the price. We had the mezze platter and mixed grill which was such a good variety. Service was outstanding. All staff were attentive and so friendly. We felt genuinely cared for. Atmosphere and decor makes you feel you have walked into a local restaurant in Turkey.

Ground Up has been a Toowoomba staple for 10+ years, credited with raising the benchmark of Toowoomba’s coffee experience since opening. Wildly popular during the peak hours in the morning and lunchtime, due to the fact that it’s conveniently situated in the CBD, between Grand Central Shopping Centre and Ruthven Street. 100% recommend for coffee and breakfast, brunch to lunch, being mindful that it can look empty to 200% capacity in an eye-blink. Take-away orders are served outside, but you have to order inside. :) Enjoy ☕️

You get the vibe even before you get there. On the street you can see black umbrellas down the lane with wooden tables. The walls are painted outside so you have the feeling you're in another country. Tastes are great, I ordered sweetcorn fritters. The salsa was good but portion size wasn't great. The fritters were overly browned but tasted was okay.

Beautiful alleyway Cafe. Blocked by sun so would be great spot during the summer. Staff are extraordinarily friendly, service was great, I only had a hot chocolate and hash browns for food but hot chocolate was exceptional. A lot of customers as well but food came out quickly. Highly recommend!

Starting with overall comment of “yum”. cool winter morning this place offers a warm cosy atmosphere with an excellent range of breakfast/brunch flavours to suite most palates. After much deliberation, we drilled the menu down to 4 options but went with the hangover rosti with pulled pork, and the chilli scamble (see pics for your drool inducing vibes). Small critics would involve the need for an extra poached egg on the rosti dish to allow the creamy yoke to balance out the salty tang of the pulled pork and a little more whipped feta to ease and compliment the delicious fresh chilli on the scram. Just being picky though, this place is a winner. cheers.

"This cafe is a gem! The food and coffee are top-notch, and the laneway setting adds a touch of artistry. The atmosphere is great, and the food is absolutely delicious. The coffee is the highlight of my day - it's that good!" highly recommend

Loved having bfast here, friendly staff, great food and atmosphere

First time Toowoomba visit, googled best coffee, landed here, google did not lie. Rustic little alley shop reminiscent of Melbourne. Breadless bowl was divine. Brekky Burger bested her, 1/2 to go. As for the coffee…. come and find out yourself.

Very warm n welcoming atmosphere. Easy to get a table probably because its Monday. Very attentive staff n super friendly. Service was quick. Big breakfast with salmon instead of bacon. Salmon well presented in a tiny cup which was a great value for money. Carefully cooked poached eggs which were very delicious. Caramel chocolate slice was thick n rich in chocolate with caramel filling inside. I wish the desserts menu was also included in the menu. Lots of options for dine in: outdoor, indoor, alfresco, etc. Parking might be a hassle as its near queens park though there is lots of street parking available just outside of cafe.

Very calm, welcoming cafe. Good atmosphere and lighting. The staff are very polite and attentive. The food was good, I got an eggs Benedict and Mocha but the yolk doneness for the 3 poached eggs i had was somewhat inconsistent. Two were hard yolk, one was jammy. Otherwise everything else was great and would recommend this cafe. Plus any cafe that gives me something other than a butter knife to cut toast is great.

Had a lovely late breakfast here. Excellent food and service. Most recommended. Our table was the meaning of the universe and everything.

Charming atmosphere & friendly, efficient staff. My rice pudding with creme brulee & apple & date compote was Divine! A bonus to find a gluten free breakfast option that wasn't eggs. Thank you for that. Very much appreciated. 🌻

I had the Parkhouse Breakfast—Great option, it was all delicious! The waitresses were attentive and friendly!

My wife found the Park House Cafe and we and our friends gave them a try Ordered: the benedict, bagel sandwich’s, and the standard, organic coffee, sun tea The food and preparation may have been simple BUT our meal was absolutely delicious and so enjoyed. I had ordered fried eggs and the server asked how I wanted the egg yolks (no other server has asked me in the past); now I know to mention my choice when I order fried eggs again. Our service was friendly, helpful, and the meal was nicely plated and they also have outdoor seating. Definitely give Park House Cafe a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Ate here a year ago and the food was great. Went back the weekend and not sure what has changed. My son had the nuggets and he could not eat them, we passed them to other at the table and they all gave them 2/10. My girl had the nachos and I had to give her my burger, because again it was not good. Service and atmosphere was fantastic, but not sure we will be going back

Lovely Restaurant! Vegetarian and Vegan friendly. Popped in for early dinner as we drove through the township. Highly recommend

Went for dinner with the family - was treated to excellent meals that we just had to share! As well as fantastic drinks and great service

Went for my birthday breakfast and was disappointed. Waited for ages before order was taken even though saw multiple servers walking around doing nothing. Food was underseasoned and generally quite tasteless. I had the breakfast burger which had that horrid plastic sliced cheese that I wouldn't expect for the price paid. On a MACCAS burger ok yes fine but this no! Potato cakes were chunky, dry inside, no salt. Just a big lump of crushed potatoes skins and all formed into a cake shape. Poached eggs tiny. We weren't asked how we would like them poached. For such a lovely exterior the interior looked tired and dated. Won’t be going back anytime soon.

Really nice food however grilled tomato was cold and eggs just warm. Otherwise a really nice breakfast. Friendly staff. Magical building with good atmosphere.

Great food, friendly staff. The big breakfast was truly epic. Everything else was also amazing.

Quick service, very yummy food, good coffee.

Urban Grounds not only has incredible food, but also amazing service. The staff went above and beyond hosting our larger group, managing the chaos of our group with ease and a friendly smile to boot! Great location, fair pricing for the delicious food, great portion sizes, and friendly service. You couldn’t ask for a better brekkie spot!

The truffle gnocchi here was good — soft, well-cooked, and paired nicely with the sauce. It definitely hit the spot. That said, if you’re a real gnocchi lover and want something truly standout, I’d recommend also trying the gnocchi at 1889 Enoteca in Woolloongabba, which is hard to beat. I’d be keen to come back and try their pizza options, as they looked great coming out of the kitchen. Overall, a solid spot worth checking out.

My husband and I shared a delicious lamb pizza (pictured), while our daughter and son enjoyed a pasta dish each. The service was efficient and very friendly. The food and drinks were great, and we all enjoyed our experience there.

In Toowoomba for one evening and craving good Italian food, we booked a table at Piccolo Papa. We’d had lunch later than expected so entrees and desserts were not on the agenda. No matter, our mains of Veal Scallopini and Pasta Carbonara satisfied all cravings and left us both pleasantly full. If we find ourselves in Toowoomba again, a return visit is highly likely.

Good place to eat, food was Ok and the service was pretty good. Paid almost $400 for 5 adults and a an infant. Tend to think that was a bit excessive but given they are in Grand Central and had lots of staff I guess overheads are high. The only improvement was the menu cannot be read easily, font style and size was hopeless. The bloke taking payment said they had monocles (magnifiers).... if that was the case the staff should have known and offered them, we were using mobiles to photograph the menu to read it.... they saw us doing that... poor effort! The only bad, and sneaks in by stealth.... you are asked to consider a tip when paying by card..... not a good look here in Oz and reason enough for me not to come back.

Fantastic pizza! Great menu, with some of the favourites and also some very luxe options. They are very generously sized, and incredibly delicious.

I booked about 10 days ahead to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. Got a "please confirm booking" email about 3 days beforehand and got a confirmed email, of which I took a photo. Got to the restaurant and guess what? No booking. The first waitress was unsure what to do even when I showed her the confirmation of the booking, the second waitress took control and found us a table. Not a great start. Not a wide range of choices when compared to other Italian restaurants. Meal ordered and was very good. Big servings of seemingly "home made" rather than factory made food. Customers in and outside the restaurant all seemed happy but not the usual "family" vibe you get from Italian restaurants. Came to pay and it has an "add your tip" option. I said to the older cashier about the stuff up and no subsequent tip, and he just shrugged it off. A week later I get an email asking how was it. I gave them the heads up about the booking stuff up on our big occasion, and their reply was .......nothing, nothing at all. No apology, no "here's a discount or free meal", literally NOTHING.

Incredible. Absolutely amazing. Food was fresh and the flavour was next level. Gonna be coming back a lot. Service was friendly and helpful. Love this place.

What an experience, fantastic food and fantastic service. The food here was exceptional, from the beef strips to the tiniest grain of rice the flavor was there. I definitely recommend getting a bbq combo to try out your cooking skills on the hot plate, it sounds like a chore that you have to cook your own food and I understand that some people would definitely be turned off by that aspect but I think it's a perfect addition. It gives you something to do and a chance to wait and just talk to your table. Definitely get an entree though so you have something to chow on while you wait, but waiting will definitely not be too long. As soon as we pressed our button to order a waiter was at our table. The venue is quite small but they do what they can and it's not over crowded or anything like that so you get plenty of room to move around but the tables could be a little bigger. Overall I would recommend the spicy fried chicken, fried rice and the beef bbq combo. You get plenty of sides with it to mix and match and make your own little meals. Amazing food and a great experience, will definitely be returning and sharing this place with other friends.

What was once one of the top restaurants in town, is now outdated, and poor quality. The restaurant smells like an old barn house. Ordered chicken fried rice, very oily, rice was getting stuck in my tooth - when you allow it to dry and it’s not fresh. Flavour in chicken was strange. I like Korean food - it could be simple receipe, freshly made, and they taste good. But Kajoku is no longer the place in Toowoomba to dine at.

We came here during the festival of the flowers. The restaurant is located upstairs. I have a feeling that the restaurant specialises in Korean BBQ as it seems like most people were having that. We instead chose a whole serve of fried chicken, sweet soy beef rice, sweet soy beef rice cakes, hot stone mix, spicy pork noodles, poached pork belly, and Tteok-Galbi. I think the most outstanding was the poached pork belly. It literally melts in your mouth. All other dishes were good but not extraordinary. Staff were friendly. The place was clean and tidy. It was a bit pricey for the serving size but considering we were in Toowoomba, I think this would be one of the better Korean restaurants.

We chose to sit in the second dinning room on the floor but not an issue and gave us a little more privacy then the main area (no BBQ in this room). Staff spent time running us through the menu to help pick things to match out tastes. Food and sake could not be faulted, Spicy Korean Fried Chicken was amazing. Keen to come back and work my way through more of the menu.

Let me start by saying the menu/s here are extensive. Truly huge! Arguably, too long. Certainly for the indecisive type such as myself. Service is swift. No faffing about there but still super friendly. Service is requested via a buzzer. I'm a big fan of this concept, it's totally logical. If I need you, I'll let you know - why waste servers time walking around checking constantly? "Buzz for attention", I need this in my day to day life. So so so so many gins and whiskeys. Just so many! And part of me wonders why. Has anyone tried them all? And if you have, you may need an intervention... Honestly, a list this long gives me anxiety. What if my favourite whiskey in the world is on that list and I pick the wrong one? Like my future wife, would I even recognise her if I walked past her in the street? How many times might that have happened? How am I to know? For food I had the gyoza and a kara-agedon donburi. They used to do a tonkatsudon which I loved, but this was a close second. All the food was really delicious. Loved it and left feeling properly satisfied. After much deliberation and high anxiety I settled on a beer to drink, of which there a few, but nowhere near as many as the spirits, making the selection easier. For the most part, beer tastes like beer to me. Perhaps a sign I don't drink a lot of it. Ordering beer makes me feel blokey and tough, like a real man. I could use a few more hairs on my chest too. The yebisu beer had "premium" in the name which sold me. The word premium made me assume it was like the Heinz of baked beans but for beer. Can confirm it did indeed taste like beer and I liked it. A projector hangs from the ceiling in the main dining space, which I assume is for karaoke or post-work movie nights. Karaoke is, I assume based off everything else here, very good - but I had a bad experience one time with karaoke so I've not tried it myself.

There were 4 of us, midweek with no booking. We were given a table with no wait although the restaurant was fairly full. We ordered a share platter with other sides and drinks. Most of the food was fabulous, it was personal taste that some was a little bland. Staff were friendly and although busy took the time to explain the concept of BBQing at oue table. Overall a good experience and I'd definitely go back again.

Most exciting restaurant in Toowoomba - delicious food, nice atmosphere, great for large groups. Friendly and helpful staff. Price is pretty high, but is reasonable. If you take your friends to this restaurant, I can assure you that you will have a great night. They even offer Karaoke rooms as well after you have finished your meal.

The food was SO good, I forgot to take more pictures as they kept bringing us different kinds of meat. We had the Brazilian Inspired Churrasco and it is worth every cent!! The chargrilled Pineapple was a winner and honestly ALL the meat was just perfect.

Great experience especially if you love meat! The only problem we had was the roof leaks as it's an old building but the table possibly should have been moved slightly so our jackets didn't get wet. Although vegetarian and understand this is a meat restaurant maybe a more inventive meal other than roast vegetables and haloumi might be nice or barramundi. But just a thought. Overall staff were friendly.

Awesome place, awesome food and the people here are the best. Had a great time here. Definitely will come back again. 100% recommended. 🥰

Went to their Cafe through the day THE GOOD staff very friendly and professional. The food all looked very fresh and was tasty and I was happy what I paid food wise THE BAD My milkshake was milk that had been vaguely threatened with chocolate syrup. Terrible. And at $6.50 shocking price. The tables are a high bar style so that may not suit the very young or very old. OVERALL stick with softdrinks or juices. But enjoy a friendly fresh meal while you wait for a bus.

Outstanding service and an enormous selection of skewered meats carved fresh from the BBQ, right at your table. Go for the Churrasco option ($45) for two hours of all you can eat meaty goodness. Plus tasty chips and an excellent garden salad, but sauces are extra. Wide range of choices at the bar as well. Amazing location for a celebration or for bringing guests from out of town.

Great food and nice ambience. Exceptional service, especially our waiter Jack, that took great care of us. Thank you for regularly checking in and going above and beyond to make our dinning experience enjoyable. What a great way to start the weekend! Will be coming back for more. Thumbs up!

We loved it! Lovely decorated dining and roof top bar. Professional and friendly staff. Delicious meals. Will definitely be back!

AlI enjoyed all the buzz at the Rooftop bar, we also had a lovely dinner in the dining room (except the too oily rigatoni) before progressing to the verandah for some nice cocktails 🍸 and other beverages 🍻🍷. I'll definitely be back 👍🏻

Food was great, cocktails were lovely, despite being a cold night they kept the area warm, was a bit loud and hard to have a conversation but otherwise great

Went for our anniversary, booked in advanced for outside rooftop bar dinning experience, yet were placed inside. (Had high expectations from advertising. ) The Waitress said only other spot was on some back deck looked like a random smoking section, no bar acces no table decoration just park benches. Not classy at all, was horrible, opted to sit inside yet there were multiple free tables on the main deck, near bar that remained empty even after we left. ON THE OTHER HAND.. However the Food was delicious Drinks were great. Waitresses were friendly, but they all seemed to be very unsure of what they were doing, maybe all were just new. Would try again because of the great food and see if service improves

Fantastic experience at George Banks! The steak was cooked to perfection! Exactly how I asked. The space is absolutely beautiful with a great atmosphere. Special mention to Noah for his excellent service. What a lovely young man! Friendly, helpful, and full of energy. I’ll definitely be back!

Booked for dinner on a very busy Friday night. Lucy provided a warm welcome as did the other wait staff. The food was very good and I had one of the best Fillet Steaks I’ve ever had. My friend had the Roast Chicken and we shared the delicious Wagyu Fat Roast Potatoes and a Slaw, all washed down with an excellent bottle of McLarenvale Tempranillo Grenache. We also met the Manager who apologised for the delay in getting our meal out due to a new menu and staff absences. It’s the second time I’ve been here and will definitely return when next in Toowoomba.

Superb lunch - incredible food, handcrafted by Chef Catherine with amazing care and attention and truly exceptional flavours!! 🤩 Beef Carpaccio 2 ways - Asian and Traditional (with salads to match) 🙏🏻 Even the bread was AMAZING 😁 Our drinks (Negroni, Aperol Spritz & Yuzu Royale) were prompt and perfectly made - our hostess - en point and enhanced our dining experience. Loved that she offered plenty of ice cold water for our table. (I just wish I had asked her name - she was x-o-lent) Lucky I decided to take my UK guests to do a ‘recy’ as the website said ‘open at 4pm’. Well worth the drive from Bulimba - I can’t wait to return! This will definitely be a lunch - long remembered by ALL!! Well done George Banks Team 🙏🏻

My wife and I had dinner here on the Sunday night after our wedding. During dinner, we were discussing whether it was one of the top 10, 5 or 3 meals we’ve ever had. We agreed it was the best meal we have had together, by a mile. The 24hr braised lamb shoulder was easily the stand out for me and the pork belly bites for my wife. The staff were efficient and friendly, food was exceptional and the atmosphere was calm and enjoyable. It was an incredible start to our honeymoon.

Had a great feed at Hello Harry’s Toowoomba. Tried the limited edition Korean Spicy BBQ Burger, the USA burger, and loaded fries with brisket—everything was awesome. The Korean burger was super saucy (in the best way), dripping with flavour just how I like it. Loaded fries were crispy and packed with toppings. Only letdown was the mozzarella sticks. They didn’t look anything like the photo on the app—looked frozen and mass-produced. Taste wasn’t terrible, but the appearance really put me off. Aside from that, the atmosphere was great, service was friendly and fast, and the burgers were top-notch. Will definitely be back for more!

All scales are out of 5 🍩🍩🍩🍩 (Flavour scale) Honestly, food actually tastes pretty good. The chicken parmi is small but full of flavour. 💰💰(Value for money) Value for what you get is it average, maybe a bit cheaper than your niche burger joints in the big cities 🫃(Portion size for big boy) Portion size is pretty small for what you pay, so if you want a big feed get ready to order extra 🌹 (Date night?) Would not bring a date, I mean it’s a burger joint 🤷‍♀️

Given the limited food options in the area, we decided to give Hello Harry a try. Unfortunately, it didn’t stand out from your average pub fare. The rump steak was overcooked, tough, and rubbery—and to make matters worse, we almost bit into what looked like a piece of metal scourer. The chips were decent, nothing special. The chicken wings were dry and tasted like they'd been reheated multiple times. Burgers were passable but nothing memorable. Overall, the experience was just average at best. If you're in the area, it might be better to explore other dining options.

Delicious burgers! I had The Pretender (plant based) and my friend had the Aussie Burger. Both meals were very fresh and sooo yummy! Highly recommend!

I recently tried "Hello Harry" and had their halal certified beef burger called "Aussie". I requested them to remove bacon. The beef patty was tasty with a good meaty flavour. It came with a fried egg, lettuce and beetroot. Personally, I didn't think the beetroot quite matched the taste but overall the burger was delicious. It would be nice if they offered options other than bacon (or compensate/substitute it).

I’ve never left a bad review before but unfortunately felt compelled to this time. We just ordered takeaway burgers and chips. The burgers were greasy and honestly tasted awful. No fresh items and nothing, other than the patties was recognisable. Even though we were very hungry, we couldn’t finish them and the chips were seasoned with “chicken” salt…something we hate. Perhaps it was our mistake not to mention we wanted “normal” salt but the option was never offered. Our experience was totally underwhelming and disappointing so we won’t be returning.

We love Hello Harry. The food is great and with plenty of bargain discount vouchers out there it’s extremely affordable. It’s hidden down a little alley off of Ruthven St. There’s heaps of parking during the week in the middle of the road and at 6pm it’s really quiet, so no wait and fast service. If you’re looking for a great burger give them a go.

Urth cafe is one of the best cafes I’ve been to but the location of it, is the flaw. Urth cafe has many different options which is really good but is the portions enough? Firstly the area is pretty nice. It’s nicely decorated and lit. It’s pet and kid friendly. But to find a parking is very hard. Unless you walk from somewhere else the location does not have a great parking if it’s your first time. Belive me I struggled. However the store was still really nice and quite spacious. The food was really good, some of it needed slightly more flavour. However it was still good. The time for the food was longer than expected even when it’s not busy. So if ur planning to go here make sure you have a long list of things to chat with friends or fam or be prepared for the weight. The portion sizes was not as expected. With the burrito bowl it looks quite big but actually it had less then thought. Although it may look big it wasn’t. Especially for the price of $19 it’s more like a $16 dish cuz it’s smaller. And the wrap was although long it was not very full. Disclaimer if u go makes sure to get something actually worth the price. In addition , the workers were nice. Really friendly I enjoyed my experience with them. Overall, cafe was good needs some improvement but Overal really good. 8/10 would recommend

The highlight was my coffee. Loved their coffee roast as it made my long black very much how i like it. Took away matcha latte which was also very very good. Highly recommend. The big breakfast however was not that great. Poached eggs with high vinegar smell ruined it though it was perfectly made. Breads were actually very nice n loved their spread. It is one of very few best breads that i have tasted in many cafes so far. Bacon was a big disappointment. Grill probably was not cleaned before bacon was cooked or might be something else as I could see the burns in bacon clearly. Serving staff n kitchen must check it before serving. Beans could be improved as well. It was not that great. However, the place has lovely little atmosphere. Inside dine in, alfresco n outside dining with some greenery. Finding parking might be tricky if u r not local or don’t travel to that side of town much often. Parking in hopper centre n walking to the cafe from back could be best option.

Urth is more than just a place to dine; it’s a haven of delightful experiences that tantalize the senses and soothe the soul. The atmosphere is imbued with warmth and kindness, creating an inviting space that feels like home to everyone who steps through its doors. The hospitality is consistently exceptional, with every visit leaving a lasting impression of care and attentiveness. The culinary journey at Urth is a joyous adventure, filled with vibrant flavours and fresh ingredients. Having had the pleasure to dine here multiple times, the menu proves to be an exploration worth savouring. Each dish arrives piping hot, overflowing with flavour, while the salads are crisp, fresh, and brimming with vitality. Beyond the delectable meals, there’s an undeniable charm to Urth that is encapsulated in the aroma of its coffee. Stepping inside, the rich scent of freshly brewed coffee envelops you, acting as a soul-soother and setting the tone for the experience ahead.

Visited for breakfast with our host family before heading back to Brisbane. This place caters well to families with games and other activities for kids to occupy their time while waiting for food, speaking of which ours was about 30 minutes. My family's order: * Savoury mince, $14 - homemade mince, thick toast * Mushroom lovers, $17 - sauteed mushrooms, butter, thyme, garlic, spinach, poached egg, feta, Turkish toast * Kids sausage and eggs (scrambled), $8 * Skinny latte mug, $5.50 * Vanilla milkshake, $8 My savoury mince had the option of adding a poached egg for $3 and I was going to order this but the staff clarified "so you want two eggs?" Turns out the meal already comes with a poached egg, which wasn't mentioned in the menu description. Bonus ☺ OTOH prices for some items were higher than the menu shown on their website, though it's hard to tell when the latter was last updated. In any case all still quite reasonable and all up it was a nice relaxing meal over some enjoyable food, and that's always a win in my books.

Official review, Price for the amount of food is average, very fast service though. Food was Luke warm when arrived to the table. The coffee's were ordered as take away but came as dine in. Asked for added bacon, did not recieve it but paid for it. 4.2 out of 10. Cost $65.80

Situated on Hume Street is the Urth Cafe with its eclectic mix of tables made from wooden pallets. The food and drinks were delicious, the service prompt, though the waitresses weren't overly friendly.

Heard this joint won an eggs Benedict context and gave it a go. It was totally worth it. The coffee was ok though nice and hot. The food is complex and garnished well. Also, very good presentation.

Love the Benedict with brioche bread. The hollandaise sauce is smooth and creamy. Brioche Bread is perfect with poached eggs. Great service and delicious food. Love the courtyard area. •Main Entrance looks like the entrance to the office building• •Back entrance from the car park•

The drinks and service are ALWAYS excellent - maybe the best cappuccino in Toowoomba? Condensed milk coffee and iced earl grey vanilla latte are also particular stand outs. The food is unfortunately ALWAYS underwhelming - sounds good, looks good, tastes mid. I’ve tried multiple menu items over the last couple of years.

My absolute favourite cafe in Toowoomba they are always busy which I think says it’s good just by that. Despite being busy the food is out very quickly and coffee is delicious I love this place. Just had the chilli scram and it was amazing 🤩

The food and coffee I had here was great. The sea salt coffee was well balanced with that touch of sweetness underneath and a light salty foam on top that made each sip really smooth and addictive. Easily one of the best specialty coffees I’ve had in a while. The Korean chicken roll was full of flavour, and layered with that sweet mango chutney, slaw and kewpie. The bun was soft but held everything together well

Surprising to see a great cafe so close to the Toowoomba bus transit centre! Cheerful staff, great quiet location , gives out good vibes! Except they have still canny locate my much missed dirty chai with the real chai with the real cardamom pods, clove…. Toowoomba gives me a good feel. Certainly a place to come back to - to co incide with the flower display at Queens Park close by!!

This cafe is a hidden gem buzzing with patrons at 7am. When you taste the coffee and delicious breakfast you'll understsnd why. I was blown away by the chilli scram (ricotta and chilli jam) on the softest and crispiest bioche toast 😋 I will return to Toowoomba for that alone. Nothing was too hard for the friendly staff, and with seating inside and out, its the perfect place for a digital nomad, a business meeting or a party of friends.

Great menu... enjoy the range of choices. Central location & staff are always friendly & warm.

Probably the best Vietnamese food in Toowoomba. I have tried others and I find myself coming back to Junktion. I love their beef pho as it comes with beef balls, and loaded with meat as well. Their bahn mi are good too, crispy pork being my favourite. Don’t skip on their vermicelli bowls as they are loaded with toppings and vegetables. 5/5 highly recommended

We made our first visit to Junktion Coffee House to have some lunch, arriving late morning on a Saturday. There were still several tables available (seating is available indoors and outside), so we found a spot and planned our order. Service was friendly and helpful, with both a young boy and older lady (mum and son, perhaps) providing satisfactory assistance. They were more than happy to accommodate our request to dine-in but also include a takeaway component to be eaten later. Even better, they waited until we were close to leaving to prepare the rest of the order, ensuring it didn't sit at our feet for 30 minutes before departure. Our meals, comprising of Pho (1 x chicken and 1 x beef), a Crispy Pork Bahn Mi, and two Bao buns (1 x Crispy Pork and 1 x Lemongrass Chicken) were all excellent. Everything offered great flavour, the helpings of meat were substantial, and it was all hot and fresh. Some more coriander in the Pho would have been awesome, but that's a small observation and purely personal preference. Lastly, but importantly, prices were reasonable and aligned with those we regularly pay around Brisbane. Overall, Junktion Coffee House was a winner, with service and food all ticking the boxes. We left satisfied and are sure to return again.

Good food. Great portion. Value for money i must say. My banh mi was delicious and I absolutely loved it. Very crispy pork too. Turkish bread with chicken was so tender n soft. Service was quick too.

Ordered many times, always have Bean sprout and basil, but why not this time? No Bean sprout and basil that’s not a pho!Did you remove them forever or your staff just forgot to give me?

I have been meaning to write a review for this place for a while as it is almost a weekly meal in our house. We are long-time customers and have made our way through most of the menu, mostly for lunch and dinner. Good amount of gluten-free options, very good Pho and always service with smile. Very helpful staff and food is always quick to arrive. Both takeaway and dine in is consistent in quality - we have never had a meal that wasn't delicious and filling! Thank you Junktion, see you next week!

I love soup sooooo much! And the beef is so soft😍

Came here for breakfast with two of my friends today. The man who served us was lovely and very efficient. The food tasted great and was very filling too (I got the Prawn bao buns, Prawn vermicelli bowl, and a large oat chai Latte - both friends got different bao buns (Crispy Pork & Lemongrass Chicken)). He also made the beverages which were delicious :) was recommended by a work friend and I'm glad she did!

Nice and chic Korean resto in Toowoomba city centre. Almost empty restaurant when we went. The kids wanted subway and we were hoping to have a sit down lunch here together but the staff said outside food is disallowed and asked us to order takeaway instead . Food is simple, we ordered chicken and rice with mayo all over.

It's been a while since I've visited Chimac - before COVID I believe. It was a frequent choice of ours back then, with a great operator. We tried them again primarily due to their competitor across the road being temporarily closed. Walking in for a takeaway, a little bit of a language barrier evident as payment was initially declined but the lady serving me nonchalantly carried on her business. I had to insist that payment occurred and money had changed hands. My first thought was "geez this is expensive" - just shy of $60 for two half serves of chicken and a side of chips. This lady scurried over to where I was waiting a few minutes later with $7.20 in cash as takeaway is apparently cheaper. The chicken was perfectly fine, and crunchy - I had yangnyeom and my wife the garlic soy. The stated serving size was 300gm and both ours were quite generous tipping the scales at over 350gm each. I'm going to comment on the ludicrous price of chips - $12.90 for 250gm. These chips are identical to those many other local outlets use, and one of those retails at $7.50 for 500gm. I won't be purchasing those next time. Not quite the Chimac I remember, but service was swift and efficient - I can imagine they do well during busy periods.

The atmosphere here is fantastic, and all the food is affordable and delicious. The service is quick too, so you don’t have to wait long for your order. I highly recommend the garlic soy fried chicken and beef bulgogi tteokbokki. For dessert, try the cute fish-shaped bungeoppang – a delightful Korean treat!

Tried this place in Toowoomba, fast efficient service. I got some spring rolls, KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) and a fried rice. Would eat here again next time I am up in the range.

Excellent, excellent, excellent. One of the greatest Korean places I've been too. I'm always a huge fan of Korean cuisine and this restaurant is definitely up there. Great portion sizes and fast service but the food is where it shines. The beef bulgogi rice bowl had an amazing taste with a perfect beef to rice ratio. My partner got a chicken mayo rice bowl and I had to try it for myself, the chicken had a great crunch and a solid fried flavor, not a dirty or too oily taste. And it also had a great ratio for chicken to rice. We also got a yang nyum fried chicken to share and it was definitely the highlight, it had an excellent taste and a sweet/spicy sauce that coated the outside of the chicken while it maintained its crunchiness. Also came with a salad and chips. Definitely get what you pay for and more. Will be back and will be bringing more people next time.

Good Korean food at reasonable prices. We had the spicy sweet chilli Korean fired chicken and bulgogi noodles. The chicken was crispy with fairly tender meat and the sauce was tasty with a good little spice kick. However the batter on the chicken was a bit too dense for my liking. The bulgogi noodles had a good flavour profile but I felt the meat lacked enough flavour to elevate the dish. Service was good as staff were friendly and ambience was nice.

My go-to restaurant in Toowoomba City. Delicious Korean food in a beautiful atmosphere. I highly recommend the Yangneom Fried chicken and the Spicy Pork & Squid Rice bowl. Friendly staff and the price is not bad. An excellent place to take your friends to if you have to go out for a nice dinner. I have been here for my birthday in the past and the staff were very friendly and and helpful!

Lovely meal. Lamb cutlets good, veges fresh and cooked to perfection. Cheesecake was beautiful. Nicely presented and Service was friendly and efficient.

This establishment offers delicious senior meals at reasonable prices. The friendly staff creates a welcoming atmosphere. The convenient location makes it easy to enjoy a meal out. And for a small additional cost, seniors can indulge in a delightful dessert. This is a wonderful dining experience.

The beers tasted funny 🤔 could be imagining things or it could be the tap lines. Over priced for a mediocre pub meal. A great example of how location is a crucial aspect in running a business.

Choose the King Pork Cutlet on sweet potato mash with broccolini and maple syrup sauce 😋

I recently dined at the Federal Hotel in Toowoomba with Robert Young, the boss of R&D Ventures, and we had a very nice meal overall. Robert, a man of great appetite and fine taste, indulged in two dozen oysters Kilpatrick and one dozen oysters natural, followed by a lamb shank and a risotto that he said was absolutely delicious. For me, he graciously ordered a full rack of Texas ribs, which were perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The pint of Guinness was fresh and satisfying, and the young lady serving us was absolutely delightful—friendly, attentive, and full of energy. The only downside was the bill, which came out to be about twice as much as we'd usually expect for a meal like this. That was a bit unfortunate, but it didn’t dampen our spirits too much. All in all, a jolly good time!

You really don't forget exemplary conduct by a staff member at a licensed venue. Last night, I gracefully witnessed a gentleman named "Adam" keeping his composure under a tirade of abuse by two patrons in the gaming area. Despite the heinous, reprehensible nature of the vitriol, this refined young man remained unfazed by the insults and terrible situation he was confronted with. Adam is a highly intelligent, articulate person that demonstrated unflinching true professionalism under scathing eviseration. I was humbly impressed with his remarkable, unwavering demeanour and in my opinion displayed magnanimous couage; a pivotal asset to his employers/management under such pressure. Well done Adam.

Food was hot and delicious and all but one of a meals came out quite quickly, staff were really attentive and apologetic about the one meal.

I travelled to Toowoomba to attend a funeral and visit the Carnival of Flowers. I’d stayed at Potters with two friends eight years ago and enjoyed the experience. The Hotel is well located with plenty of car parking. My room was on the First Floor, with basic facilities, a large shower and was clean and quiet. I dined in the restaurant and thought the service by Michael was fantastic. His enthusiasm and consideration was great and lifted my mood. I left before breakfast but would like to say Thanks Michael!

We had such a wonderful stay at Potters Hotel & Restaurant. The rooms were spotless, spacious, and very comfortable. The service was outstanding – friendly, attentive, and nothing was too much trouble. The location is perfect, making it easy to get around. And the food was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend and will definitely return.

A perfect hotel. Wonderful staff - friendly and helpful. Lovely rooms. The restaurant was fantastic. Totally recommended - breakfast and dinner. Such lovely, hard working, service and wonderful food. A mixture of 5-star and homeliness!

This hotel is in a great location with good off street parking and clean rooms. It had a lovely outside area with plants. Unfortunately, the bed needs a new mattress, it was uncomfortable. The food was not up to the price charged. Too much dressing on the salad, raw tuna in the bowl, which it does not state on the menu, and the tacos were greasy and not nice. I don't like giving a bad review, but I hope you can improve on the above.

Outstanding. We appreciated the small touches- Sunday snooze, selection of pillows, tea towel and dishwashing liquid plus the supremely comfortable, immaculate and quiet room. Potters was a wonderful base to explore the flower festival. Thank you, Amanda

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you. Our rooms were lovely and clean. The location was perfect for our visit to the nearby gardens. And the food at the restaurant and the staff were great… we would certainly come back!

Easy and stress free check in process. The rooms were clean, well appointed and very quiet. Will definitely re-book if the need arises to stay in Toowoomba.

Great bar. Great selection of beers on tap

Popped into Fitzy's and it wasn't too crowded or loud. The dark lighting and candles on the tables created a very nice cosy atmosphere. Ordered a Kilcoy sirloin steak, medium rare, with vegetable greens and the crumbed haloumi entre. I've never had crumbed haloumi, and I personally preferred a fried haloumi, but I have no complaints for the taste. The Greek yogurt sauce it came with was great and my only complaint is there wasn’t more of it. The steak was amazing. Perhaps it was cooked to medium, I'm no steak connoisseur, but it wasn't chewy at all and the fat was rendered and easy to down. Vegetable greens were perfectly cooked.

The service was great. The ambience was on point with the music cruisy and the perfect level. The food is very much pub grub but great quality. I’ll definitely be back.

Great atmosphere. Good selection of Craft beers. Staff extra helpful and friendly. Can definitely recommend a visit here. I will certainly come back again.

Great atmosphere, go here just for that! Bar looks old, dark, and has super fun beers on tap! Even my favourites - sours! $18 pints for those however. But knowledgeable and helpful staff. I go everytime I'm in Toowoomba.

Nice pub. It's $15 for a pint which is probably the going rate.

Staff was friendly greeting us when we walked in but that was pretty much it. Didn't really gave much suggestions when we ask about the cocktail selections. The drink we ordered were acceptable, if not quite on the sweet side (Mai Tai & The Reed). Great selection of draft beers on tap. Haven't tried any food yet due to time constraints but I'll make sure to put it up here :)

Amazing food, full of flavour! Staff are so lovely and so nice about food allergies as both myself and my partner have anaphylaxis they even adjusted meals for us! Amazing place will be going back!

The best of everything. I usually stick with a goat curry, the flavours is great, ask them to make it a little more spicy than medium and you will not be disappointed. They will let you taste it before to see if it’s to your liking. Pair this with a nice Shiraz and you have a perfect meal. I have been here a few times and the meals are 5 star. 💫

A great family run business that were rated high and deserve it. Food was made quickly and delivered fresh and timely. Flavours were authentic and left us full but wanting to eat more if only for the Taste. Thank you.

This is a quality Indian Restaurant with lovely authentic food. The Madras Prawns were lovely with saffron rice and garlic and cheese Naan. Madras curries are milder than the others. We also had the Bombay Beef which is a little more spicy but the beef was so tender and melted in your mouth. We also got to taste the butter chicken which is also a crowd favourite and it was quite spicy for a butter chicken but I enjoyed it. The moscato wine goes well as with a little sweetness it cuts the impact of the spicier meals and is a good choice with these meals we had. I advise booking like we did and we arrived at opening with a 6pm booking which we were very pleased with as it gets quite crowded later which is testament to the quality restaurant that it is.

The food really is amazing! I only tried the veggie and vegan options (of which there were plenty) and loved them all. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Toowoomba!

Very nice food and great atmosphere. We came on a friday night where there was a live singer as well. Highly recommend coming here for dinner. You won't be disappointed!

I had such a wonderful experience here! The staff made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The menu has a great variety, and every dish we tried was bursting with flavor. The ambiance is relaxing and modern - perfect for a family dinner or a date night. Definitely worth visiting again!

I think the management has changed here from the last time we dined (before COVID). I remember how flavourful and authentic the food used to be here and would be our must-eat spot whenever we visited Toowoomba. It was worth the price and would leave very satisfied. Not worth the price anymore, in the name of 'sauces' you'll just receive yogurt and chips are just frozen french fries. We ordered shish XL and for that price it only got 3 shish, little bit of garden salad, small-size chips, 3 piece pickles, 3 small triangles flatbread and yogurt (sauces) If I compare, for less price in Sydney, you will get 3 shish, unlimited leb bread, hummus and babaganoush (sauces), 1 kebbeh, 2 falafels, tabouleh or fatoush, free mix pickles (bowl full of radish, chilli, olives, gherkins), garlic dip, chilli dip, tea. Their serves are generous and its the same across all middle-eastern restaurants. I know we shouldn't compare but what is so special about this restaurant that has the prices so high. I don't mind paying high price but the food should be worth it, needs flavour and quality ingredients. There was nothing 'wow' about the entree or main meals we ordered, there were no presentation to make the dishes look appealing, service was average. The girl just received our order and brought the dishes. She never came back to check or anything. I wouldn't recommend as they really need to up their game

Food here is so good. We keep coming back. Last visit the beef mince skewers were a little undercooked. We didn't bother complaining. Everything else food-wise was perfect. Sometimes the servers are a little forgetful/ get orders wrong, & sometimes they play the happy bday song way too long, but the addictive food & reasonable prices make this place a favorite.

Great food and friendly staff. Awesome service. Kept checking on us in case we needed more. Delicious selection on their Banquet. Tasty Turkish coffee

The food was delicious, but it was let down by poor service - they forgot our 1 and only drink, forgot to put haloumi in the wrap, forgot the baba ghanoush, the flat breads came out 10 minutes after the meal which needed them for dipping... But, it was delicious, so... 🤔🤷‍♂️

Very dark lighting, food was good. Slow service. We waited 20 minutes to get the menu after being seated. Waited another 5 minutes to get water to drink. Once the order was placed, food wasn’t too late to arrive. Really happy with the size and toppings of pizza. Platter was good as always.

We had a 😞 terrible experience 😞 at this restaurant during the Spring Festival. The fried rice was cold and clearly not fresh, and the pasta was so hard it was unpleasant to eat. The girls serving food admitted it wasn’t fresh, but when the owner came, he rudely dismissed our concern, saying 😡“we prepared food this way, thank you” and then took the food away without offering any solution. I also mentioned that we come here casually, but he didn’t care about customers and just said “we are very busy.” That is no excuse for serving poor quality food with such arrogance. We drove all the way from Gatton, wasting our time, fuel, and money, only to be treated with stale food and rude service. Extremely disappointing and definitely not worth visiting again.

We had the vegan banquet: so delicious (I can’t believe we finished it cause there was so much food, but it was so good!); and so well priced for how generous and delicious it was.

Great place to have a nice dinner in a pleasant atmosphere. Like getting in early here as its very popular and can be noisy. Arrive early and the experience is much better. The food is delicious and the parmigiana I had was great. Was a nice place ro celebrate the end of year with colleagues

Great beer, service and atmosphere. The vibe is upscale casual, which I like. They have my favorite little creatures rogers amber ale on tap, which I appreciate. Good and friendly service. Loses a star because they impose around a 1% surcharge on card transactions. Almost everyone today pays with card, so they should just set a proper menu price and do away with all the silly hidden surcharges, similar to what every business already does with GST.

Visited during the week for lunch, service and atmosphere was excellent, a few different areas with a different vibe that you can choose from, which was great. Friendly and helpful staff. Two of us ordered medium rare steaks but both of them arrived very close to well done, still juicy and tasty but not a hint of pink… definitely not medium rare, apart from that, highly recommended.

We didn't have a booking, so took a cute booth table in the bar. The bar menu was limited, but adequate. Plenty of GF options. We ordered a GF schnitzel with GF fries. The youngers in the party drank mocktails which were a hit. The salads were delicious and the portions very generous, however the prices were on the higher side for pub-fare.

Atmosphere lovely and the staff work like Trojans, pity my roast pumpkin salad was definitely not up to par. Dry greens, cold pumpkin and could barely find the feta or parmasan.

Excellent meal. Great table staff who are attentive without being intrusive. Highly recommended for a meal when in Toowoomba.

Was looking forward to a fantastic rare night out at Fitzy’s . Arrived 7.45 & we ordered 350g rib eye & eye fillet. Staff were ok to say the least but both the steaks were very chewy & advise the waitress & was offered one wine , wee accepted . Then stayed on as friends arrived & we all enjoyed to the wee hours , upon leaving I noticed the taxi queue & asked to return to the toilet but was refused entry.. very abrupt bouncers after spending $360 I found this disgraceful & very poor service, after all I’m no teenager or young at 65 & nature comes more frequently. The place its self is beautiful clean & has a few choices to have fun . Ps the steak was cooked as requested but suggested a change of butcher, suggested Cole’s seriously disappointed regards Frank

(Pictured is Barramundi & Prawns) Went here for my 21st birthday on a Sunday. It was very nice and quiet, and service was very fast and polite. Drinks menu is MASSIVE which is really good for anyone who doesn't know what to drink. Very very good Espresso Martini's (topped with powdered chocolate which was surprisingly tasty). My partner had the Pork Belly for entree which was mainly just fat and skin but he loved the dried carrot that comes on the side salad. I got the Crumbed Camembert for my entree which I thoroughly enjoyed, I was expecting a whole wheel of cheese but only got half which was plenty. The bread and side salad paired nicely with the warm gooey Camembert and the crumb on it wasn't too thick or thin. For mains my partner had the Carbonara which he also loved, it was very flavourful and creamy but had really big pepper bits throughout which threw him off. I had the Barramundi & Prawns as my main. The fish was sadly overcooked and very dry for a dish that's meant to be juicy and fresh, the prawns were amazing though and were very nice was the garlic butter that they are cooked in. The mash for my main was really lumpy but tasted great, the veg is also steamed instead of boiled which I didn't mind but they could have been steamed for atleast 3 minutes more. Overall we had a very good night and I highly recommend The Seasons for a date night or private celebration. The total cost for 2 drinks, 2 entrees, and 2 mains was $130 for 2 people. Menu is fairly expensive but the food is filling.

Food was average. Nothing special. Apart from the seafood platter we also ordered chicken pasta and a bruschetta. The drink was tasteless. I didn’t took much photo because I wasn’t feeling it after trying the drinks. The pasta was good according to my son it was a big serving. The bruschetta would have been better if the balsamic vinegar was drizzled all over the bread and not on the plate! The seafood platter is not bad. The scallops and the Moreton bay bug was my favourite.

I’ve been to The Seasons a few times prior to COVID and always rated it quite highly, but unfortunately, it seems to have dropped a notch, in my opinion. The service was great—attentive, friendly, and professional. The staff really carried the experience and made the visit reasonably pleasant overall. However, the ambience left a lot to be desired. While the restaurant presents itself as an intimate and quiet place, that wasn’t the case during our visit. Unfortunately, we can’t control other patrons, but the atmosphere was disrupted by a few obnoxiously loud diners, which really took away from the intended vibe. As for the food—it was okay. Not bad, but not particularly memorable either, especially considering the price point. For what you're paying, you'd expect something a bit more refined or stand out. All in all, it's a decent evening thanks to the team working there, but The Seasons isn't quite what it used to be.

I took my partner there last night and had the seafood Tower for two. It was bloody delicious perfect for the two of us we couldn’t even fit desert in that’s good filling it was and I’d like to say the service of the people that work there were absolutely wonderful and so nice I would recommend this restaurant to anyone to go there and every time I’m in Toowoomba I will be going back there and I’d like to say the people that write bad reviews on this place you guys are snobby nose people and don’t know what good food was unless it smacked you in the face. handsdown I would rate this restaurant probably One of the greatest restaurants Toowoomba thank you, season for having us last night

Wonderful ambience, fabulous lighting, perfect playlist and excellent service. A hidden gem. I didn't have a meal but my friends raved about theirs. Thank you for a lovely night out.

Took Google's advice and went to this place while we were in Toowoomba for the weekend, ordered a seafood tower and hands down probley would been one of the best ones my partner and I have had especially the scallops. Staff were great and really friendly happy environment. Recommend for anyone to give this place a go.

Friendly and well decorated restaurant. Group booking and we all enjoyed our meals. I had the chicken supreme - delicious. Perhaps the meals are a little more expensive then some places but as I said we are it all. 2 of us were not drinking so tried mocktails - strawberry one delicious but very berry one the liquid nice but too many berries which were half frozen. We have booked to come again

Lovely Café within the Springs Nursery, the staff were very friendly and professional. The food choices were great. The seating ranged inside and outdoors with terrace and grassed areas available. Beautiful gardens surrounded the Café and a children's play area adjacent to the tables . Great place to eat.

Pork belly for breakfast. This was one of the gluten free options and was well presented and cooked. The rice was almost perfect ( I can be picky with rice), the egg was perfectly fried with the yolk still soft enough to blend into the rice. Would definitely have this again. Happy to have a different option that includes rice for breakfast 😋 Our food came out quickly and service was friendly.

Beautiful venue. Staff pleasant but did not deliver cutlery with the meals and had to be reminded to get some. No condiments offered. Food and drinks were only lukewarm warm. One was sent back because it was too cool to eat but truly everything should have been sent back. When the meal we sent back was returned, cutlery was forgotten again!

Breakky in amongst the nursery is so beautiful . . The eggs beni was amazing just different . . Chunky salmon not shaved and loads of sauce . .which it needed as it would have been a touch dry otherwise. . But lovely food otherwise . .

I ordered the Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon, but when the dish arrived, it looked very plain and unappetizing. The salmon was barely noticeable — definitely not the usual pink slices you'd expect. Instead, it was homemade smoked salmon, scraped off the skin (which was still attached), and the chef didn’t mention how it was smoked (in a smoker or just in the oven). These methods produce very different taste and texture, and unfortunately, this one didn’t impress. There was hardly any salmon on the plate, which made the dish even more disappointing. The waitress seemed unfamiliar with the food and couldn’t answer basic questions. About five minutes later, a chef came out to explain how they prepare the salmon, but even then, he didn’t clarify the method. By that time, the food had gone cold and I had lost interest. If you're doing something different with a classic dish, you should inform customers upfront to avoid this kind of disappointment. The Big Breakfast was okay, but the mushrooms were underwhelming. We were seated near the window, which would have been fine — except the view was of an old fridge, which didn’t help the experience. Overall, between the food and service, I won't be returning. Three stars only because parts of the meal were passable.

We were some of the first people into the cafe in the morning, waited well over an hour for our food to arrive, just for it to be cold, bland and rubbery. Waitstaff are rude and no help. Manager too busy on the phone. Not coming here again

Area picturesque but totally overwhelmed with Bin Chicken Ibis. We ate outside and had the birds land on our table plus the were on other tables where clients had left but tables not cleared of finished food plates. Birds eating off plates plus beaks in mugs. Disgusting disgusting but I think out of your control. Yuk! Service very very slow. We only ordered coffee and a milkshake. 35 minutes for coffee and 47 minutes for the milkshake. Shame but we will not return.

Had a good meal at Hog’s Breath Café Toowoomba. I ordered the Mega Cut of their slow-cooked steak with avocado and béarnaise sauce, plus a side of Byron Bay chilli sauce—which was sweet with a nice spicy kick. The curly fries were crispy and tasty, and the house slaw was fresh. Only downside was the steak could’ve been a bit warmer when it came out. Also, worth noting that cold water was extra, which was a bit unexpected. Overall, solid feed with good flavours and friendly service.

Good steak for a good price. The curly fries are amazing. Happily a returning customer. 300g sirloin was a great!

Treated myself to the 600g prime rib steak with garlic prawns. Absolutely delicious meal with great side choices! If you’re hungry I’d highly recommend. Lovely old fashioned fit out with timber furniture. Also shoutout to Cameron for the incredible service :)

Loved their food and friendly service. I visited twice and both were excellent experience. Team was lovely and helpful. Pub style atmosphere was awesome. I had a rump steak and it was perfect. Most favourite one was Curly Chips. Amazing shape and well seasoned taste. It wasn't busy during lunch time and had enough parking spaces.

Pretty good meal there. Clean with super friendly staff who do everything possible to get your experience right. Prices normal for a Hogs. Was not busy when we went in but meals came out quick. Beer was icy cold and offered water on arrival. Cutlery and glasses clean and well kept. Has it's own parking in town there so pretty handy. Food was fresh and tasted good. Wrap was quite tasty and so was the chicken burger. Curly fries were perfect.

I had the rump, asked for medium. Been largely the same at every Hogs Breath I’ve been to, steak was tough. My wife had the sirloin, same there. It seems if you’re not buying the slow cooked stuff, then the steak isn’t important. Disappointing for a Steakhouse. Highlight though, we had an unusual moment where an impaired young man with us got a bit agitated. The young waiter Henrique handled this most professionally. Well done to you sir.

Upon entry to the restaurant, I was met with a lovely young person, polite, courteous and helpful, ushered to our seat. Ample time to review the menu and the waiter came and checked on us and we placed our order. 2 x Rump steaks with vegies and sauces. Quite reasonable for wait time, reasonable presentation of the food. Unfortunately, the meal was nowhere near the standard expected of Hogs Breath in general. Have dined at several Hogs Breath over the years. The vegetables were soggy and cooked way too long and basically disintegrated in your mouth. The rump steaks were thin and cooked medium rare, but unfortunately, they were so full of gristle it was unable to be chewed without feeling like a cow chewing it's cud. After making the issue known to the waiter, the manager came, and we explained the concerns to which it was revealed there was a new batch of steak provided, and the issue would be looked at with respect to the steak. The manager was respectful and understood the issue and provided a discount for us. Hopefully it was just the bad batch of steak and it will be better next time.

Shout out to JP for the wonderful service and YG, Miguel, Efren and Chris for the amazing food! The whole dining experience for our group of 5 is great and we felt very welcome. I would like to commend The Southern Hotel (Restaurant) for incorporating Filipino dishes ,such as Liempo and Chicken and Prawn Noodles (Pancit Canton). We all enjoyed the food. It was all full of flavour and the desserts were made in-house such as the icecream. The money you paid for is all worth it.

This restaurant delivers an outstanding dining experience! The customer service is exceptional—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The menu offers a fantastic selection of delicious dishes, catering to a variety of tastes. Highly recommend!

A Truly Memorable Experience at The Southern Hotel, Toowoomba I don’t often write reviews, but after our recent visit to The Southern Hotel in Toowoomba, I felt genuinely compelled to share our experience. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm smiles and attentive service that made us feel right at home. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between modern comfort and that inviting country charm Toowoomba is known for. It’s the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy a great meal, and not feel rushed. Speaking of the food – absolutely outstanding. Every dish we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether you're after a perfectly cooked steak, something from their seasonal specials, or just classic pub fare done right, The Southern Hotel delivers in every way. The portion sizes were generous, and the attention to detail didn’t go unnoticed. A big thank you to the staff – from the kitchen to the front of house – for going above and beyond. It’s rare to find such consistently excellent service paired with high-quality food. We left feeling full, happy, and already planning our next visit. If you’re in Toowoomba and looking for a place with heart, flavour, and hospitality, The Southern Hotel is a must.

The food is so good, never fails to impress us every time. Kudos to all the staff, chef and also to Kuya JP!

Travelled to Toowoomba for a birthday get together here. Great spot. Plenty of parking, nice atmosphere, (good) kids play area viewable from the eating area in the bistro. Bar /service staff were young and maybe not as slick as more experienced crews but we're competent, professional, and friendly. Food was great. There is a good variety on the menu and considering how busy they were during our visit the meals arrived with surprising speed. Pricing is perfectly reasonable by current standards. It was unanimous at our table that the food quality and value was excellent and above average. Toowoomba has a surprising amount of great pubs, The Southern is up there with the best of them. Highly recommended.👍

Visiting from Victoria and this pub was walking distance. We had the seniors Roast and an apple pear crumble. Would return for the dessert alone. Service was excellent. They were busy on a Monday night. Friendly and efficient staff working hard. No wait time. Warm and cosy. Not too noisy either.

As always, we booked a table (booth) and staff were very helpful, attentive and respectful in particular as we are senior citizens and not because we expect it either. Service is good and so is the food which is reasonably priced, and our group has yet to have a "bad" meal experience, hence we keep coming back. Keep up the good work.

There was this waiter called Nat, she was amazing and lovely and I would 100% give her a raise, she treats her customers with kindness and respect, her smile was lovely and her humor was unmatched. I will be recommending this place to all my friends! It was our friends 18th and he had an amazing time. 10\10, that being said, all the staff we interacted with were lovely, and the food came out fast and hot. This was a impeccable restaurant experience.

Waited 50 minutes for our orders, fair enough as they were very busy. That wasn't an issue. Waited 25 minutes for our drinks, not so busy in the bar, but okay, not complaining about that either. Customer service was not a nice positive experience as all staff we dealt with were very moody and seems forgot how to smile. The food was okay but nothing special at all. Pork belly was soft no crackling and quite dry. Sumac roast potatoes , not nice. Schnitzel was very bland, chicken in the Ceasar salad was not enjoyable so was pushed to the side. Such a beautiful location, gorgeous facility but I doubt we'll ever return. Planned on ordering streaks all round but after reading there was a 45 minute wait on steaks we chose differently. Turns out we waited anyway. Maybe the steaks would have made for an improved experience. But we'll never know.

What a beautiful place to have a wedding! We wanted simplicity, great food, and no stress. Tracey and her team gave us exactly that. Tracey guided us along the way, was very patient and nothing was too difficult. The service from Tracey and the staff was amazing. Thank you so much for our wonderful day.

I've never been able to say that vegetables were cooked to perfection in a pub. These were, and the steak and ribs were out of this world. This is a must visit place if you are in the area.

Attended the show and shine show. Used the facilities of blue mountain and found food reasonable but not inspiring but service extremely lacking. Was busy but not expecting though. Was borderline rude and lack of acknowledging. Our family were regular eaters here but time and time again issues with food and more so staff issues stopped us. Luckily plenty of other places to chose from

Awesome time . Great service from Bec and her team . Prompt food and drink service friendly staff and was great such awesome customer service from Bec who made the experience even better Thank u Bec you met all that was demanded and accomplished so much . My self and the Indian Motorcycle riders group Gold Coast and Brisbane hope to do it again next year with you. Thank you again . Kit

Lovely staff members, very good customer service. Food was absolutely atrocious. I ordered the chicken parmi the chicken was overcooked and mainly dry but was undercooked in a spot, the ham on top had what looked like freezer burn, salad tasted like it was 2 days old, will not be returning.

I went to the cafe for a coffee & scones a couple of weeks ago & it was beautiful but went there on Sunday morning for breakfast & I had to pay for a couple of slices of sourdough with my breakfast, ending up costing me $29 for the breakfast alone & it was like it came from a bain marie, the corn fritters I could not eat at all, I expected to have hot food served to me not half cold & inedible, very disappointing. The staff took my plate away & did not even ask how my breakfast was.

Always our favourite place to come for dinner. Had the salmon tonight- cooked to perfection. And the kids beg to come for the kids meals with ice cream and the kids room. Good old fashioned family night out and the meals were super quick. JP the restaurant manager always farewells us and checks in, which is alovely country touch you don't always see. I didn't want to give a good review because I don't want it to book out, but it really is a great place!

Breakfast - you gotta try the smokey house beens and chorizo with pickled chilli on the side with their wonderful coffee! Great service from friendly and courteous staff. I'll be back!! All good, new menu, member specials, friendly staff and quick delivery of meals. 👍👍👍 Went there for lunch, ordered a 300gm rib fillet steak, mushroom gravy and onion rings topper. The onion rings had been cooked a number of times and the panky batter fell off the onion rings, there was no mushroom sauce and the steak was eye fillet. I was very disappointed with this effort. My wife had the lamb shank which was lovely but the pumpkin was not cooked through...crunchy. Please note the staff in this place are wonderful, no reflection on them at all. Good to try the specials, you won't be disappointed. 😃👍

Meet a guy on arrival . His name was Jaypee. He was so accommodating , helpful with sense of humour. The service was so good . Food here was so great . We dine in here if we go out. Nice place. 👍

Big shoutout to all the staff, particularly the cafe staff. We come weekly and coffee is consistently good with friendly staff. Special shout-out to JP for his above and beyond service this morning with our group. 👏🏽

Called in for a meal with my daughter.. was not disappointed in service or food.. never had a bad meal here

Food was so quick even when the restaurant was super busy! They did forget my cocktail however the manager gave me a refund & got me a cocktail (which was amazing!) Food & Service was amazing!! It’s been a long time since receiving such great food and customer service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this venue and was thoroughly impressed by the quality of the food and the exceptional presentation. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully plated, clearly showcasing the chef’s attention to detail and creativity. The atmosphere is intimate and charming—an ideal setting for a relaxed and memorable date night, especially if you’re looking to try something a little different from the usual spots. It strikes a perfect balance between casual and elegant, making it both inviting and special. While the overall experience was positive, there were a few minor service-related issues that could be improved. These did not significantly detract from the evening but are worth noting for future refinement. That said, the quality of the food and ambiance more than made up for it. I would definitely return and look forward to seeing how the service continues to evolve.

We went here for our anniversary dinner and it was incredible. We had such fantastic service the staff were just so amazing and attentive. The food was just perfect, amazing value. 10/10 recommend, we'll definitely be coming back.

I have eaten at Host multiple times and had the most wonderful experience. The food is absolutely amazing! every dish was mouthwatering and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is calm, intimate, and quietly elegant, making it the perfect spot to unwind. What really sets this place apart is the owner’s incredible knowledge of wine. Their passion shines through in every recommendation, making each glass feel thoughtfully chosen to complement the food. I highly recommend trying the “Just Feed Me” option. It’s a delightful surprise of multiple courses, featuring dishes I wouldn’t normally choose myself, but every single one was delicious and opened my eyes to new flavors. Truly a fantastic dining experience from start to finish. I’ll definitely be back again, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone I know!

There’s food and then there’s art. HOST never ceases to amaze you with their level of creativity and astonishing execution of every element. Impossible to choose a favourite dish and every one is better than the last, not to mention the brilliant choice of wines to complement every bite. Toowoomba is lucky to have these guys here, can’t see what they come up with next

My husband and I love cooking ourselves, so really appreciate the complex simplicity of good flavours and quality food, but this dining experience has been absolutely phenomenal. Extraordinary flavours and food! It's literally the best dining experience we have had in Australia- and we've been here 8 years! Everything was amazing- the staff, the service, the food, the wine... it was fantastic. A special Thank you to Bop for an amazing evening. We will definitely be back!

I'm not much of a meat eater, but overall our first dining experience here was delicious, and each dish was curated and introduced with obvious expertise. The fact the dishes were small but plentiful gave us the opportunity to try a wide range of tastes without feeling overfull; the meal felt like the perfect amount. The house made lemonade was also a highlight and I really liked the zucchini flowers. The autumn veg felt like a few too many flavours in one, but still nice. If there was a more plant based version I'd probably go back every few months, but as it was, it was a lovely and unique dining experience that I'd recommend.

Every member of the family walked away very happy. What an amazing experience. Great food, wine, service and company. The degustation menu is well worth the price. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very welcoming and not overwhelming so we were still able to converse between dishes. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a great dining experience with family/friends.

Went here due to the choices of others. Restaurant doesn't accept cash, but has a surcharge for card usage. Just build it into the prices, ffs. Seating isn't good for more than about thirty minutes, either you're on tall stools or short chairs without a back. The food was OK but they're pushing a little on the high side of prices for the value. The pizza in my photo was $32 + card fee. The dips were $15 + card fee. The only redeeming feature was the desserts, which were surprisingly good in both taste and value. Finally, strangely, for an "Italian"-style restaurant, they don't have coffee.

Easy to find, wonderful staff greeted us and guided us to spacious and well appointed tables. Ordering from a good range of food was easy using the QR code. The food was delivered quickly and was piping hot. Nice to see and experience happy and helpful staff.

The pasta and gnocchi was delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced and it was cooked to perfection. Thank you for good service and nice atmosphere.

Went to dinner with the family for my sister’s birthday tonight, the food was delicious and the service was amazing. Our lovely waitress was so wonderful and cheerful the whole time, she went above and beyond to make sure that we all had a great night. She even went to the extent of bringing out a free dessert and singing happy birthday to make my sister’s night extra special! Thank you! :) ❤️

Vapianos is a remarkable experience. The food’s fabulous, cute furniture and lovely staff.One particularly nice staff is Shanali, Shanali is the world’s nicest Server. She accompanies to everybody’s needs. Sashan, our chief, Hands down did amazing job, crispy pizza with fluffy dough. This is an excellent restaurant. Please go here. ☺️

Amazing service from Joel and staff, he was really accomodating, helpful and friendly! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and the food was top tier! I would encourage anyone who hasn’t been in a while to visit again we tried a new pizza and it was delicious possibly a new favourite!!! Great food, great service! Thank you for hosting us! 🫶🏼

Absolutely amazing experience at Vapiano’s Toowoomba! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with such warm and friendly service — the staff really go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The food was outstanding — fresh, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite. The atmosphere was just perfect — relaxed yet vibrant, with a great buzz that made the whole dining experience even more enjoyable. Whether you’re there for a casual meal, a date night, or catching up with friends, Vapiano’s Toowoomba hits the mark every time. Highly recommend — we’ll definitely be coming back soon! 🍝🍕✨

Great little cafe to enjoy breakfast or lunch. We visited for breakfast and were greeted immediately before being shown to an empty table. After ordering, our drinks took about 10min to arrive, and the meals about 20min, which seemed very reasonable. All meals were good sized and value for money, we spent about $30 per person for a drink and meal. Service was very friendly. The atmosphere was a little loud once the cafe filled up, but it's to be expected, and didn't personally impact our conversation.

I had high expectations from ortem obviously coz i drive pass daily n see lots of people dining in. Service was really good n staff were very hospitable. Strawberry cake was out of the world. It was so rich in flavour n definitely a must try dessert. Steak was also nice. But, the main dissatisfaction was with coffee. I ordered long black triple shot. Maybe its ortem coffee which is dark roast. I always drink long black. But, I found theirs was kinda dark roast so i couldn’t enjoy it though it looks really amazing n definitely made by very skilled barista with great crema on top. Besides, the salmon dish which i was really excited about was visibly appealing n looked really nice but not cooked properly leaving the salmon uncooked n raw. It looked properly grilled from outside but was raw inside. However, the atmosphere was really nice n staff were very attentive.

First time coming here with my partner and it was the best, amazing pancakes to satisfy my stomach. Nice staff that will serve you with a smile and see if you need anything else before leaving your table. Definitely coming here again.

Went twice while in Toowoomba, fantastic food and coffee. Probably the best chicken burger I've ever had.

On the pricier side BUT worth it! A place to go it you wanna treat yourself and others with kind, understanding staff and amazing food in presentation and taste that I wasn't expecting but delicious and filling.

First time coming to this restaurant, staff was so amazing and lovely, tried this new freak shake spring matcha soo yum and thick definitely worth it Got the bene with salmon was good but I feel like for the price the portions is a bit small and the salmon was extra salty but apart from that would definitely come again.

I loved my breakfast at Ortem. Our coffees were made to perfection. The staff were all happy and had a lovely attentive service style. Well done Ortem! It’s so hard to find a good cafe that you feel happy and satisfied with your meal and service.

Nicely decorated, good ambience and very friendly and attentive staff. Our breakfast was exceptional. I also treated myself to a Portuguese tarte - probably the best one I've had since I visited Lisbon a few years ago and fell in love with pasteis de nata.

Same old same old Cafe + breakfast. Nothing out of ordinary to blow your mind, however a very cosy spot and we'll suited for big groups. We headed here with a group after a workout and the service was very organised and speedy. Coffee was alright and the sweets were hit and miss in my opinion. I will definitely try more items in the future and edit this review as I go.

Funky little coffee shop cafe. Awesome fit out with indoor and outdoor seating. We enjoyed a bacon, cheese and beans jaffles. It was extreamly tasty and served at the perfect temperature so it doesnt burn your mouth. We also had a almond latte and a piccolo latte. Both very good. Will be back. Would recommend.

Went back for breakfast for the first time in a while. The place was not too busy (it was only 7.30am) and we were lucky to get a seat without having to wait. I had the Eggs Your Way and my partner had the M&H Platter. I know looking at the photos the bacon looks over cooked but i love it on the crispy side and it was cooked to perfection for me and really tastey. The eggs were soft and perfectly with the yolk soft. The coffee is always good.Great service, good food,good coffee with good company what more could you ask for on a Saturday morning. Do yourself a a favour and go for breakfast you won't regret it.

Nice friendly cafe. Was driving through Toowoomba. Saw the Google review and decided to stop for brunch. Staff were very friendly. Food was fresh and tasty, Weiss frappe was delicious and coffee was good. Will definitely come back again.

Eggs were well cooked, coffee was tasty and presentation was aesthetic, but the food was quite bland. Fantastic location and decor though.

Milk and honey appears to be a great new hipster hang out in the growing cultural Mecca of Toowoomba. The menu is a upmarket, there is no typical bacon and egg roll or big breakfast. However it works, the flavours have been considered and work well together. The coffee is like lava, once it had cooled down it was drinkable. It may have been an inexperienced barista but it's not the best coffee in Toowoomba. The atmosphere is good for family's and kids to run wild however it can get noisy inside with the high ceiling and open space. There is no wifi at present so for students looking to study over a coffee you will need an external connection. Overall I would not rush to come back here, but I would certainly stop in if I was passing by. The cafe is open from 0600-1500 every day. It has a large following with local cyclists so maybe wait till after 9am if Lycra offends you.o

Specifficly came to Super Rooster to take 4 packets of chips & a roll home with me to NSW (freeze them & to place in an ESKY) only to be disappointed with the chips being overcooked & barely any salt in 3 of the four packets, & a quarter of my chicken roll bent back on itself squashed in the foil packet! Been eating these for many many years, so not happy at all sadly. 3 stars for the chicken rolls, none for the chips.

Usually quiet good service, unfortunately when buying take away, most often than not, there is no cutlery included, And they never put a single box (e.g.half chicken and chips) in a bag so it's free to make a mess in the car. Please Include, many people are buying this for lunches for work and am I supposed to eat half a chick and chips with my hands? A lot of the time the window ladies don't seem too happy to be there. Nevertheless, the food is good and it's local business so I continue to support.

First time eating at Super Rooster and I can honestly say that it was great. A generous amount of food cooked very well for a great price. I had the tropical pack and it reminded me of an 80's Queensland chicken shop that I miss very much. With 80's serving sizes and quality. Great job team and thank you so much.

This place was great, what I originally thought was a big fast food place all over Australia with horrible food. I was DEFINITELY wrong. I ordered 6 chicken nuggets and chips, the chips were fresh and very hot, my mouth is still burning, they were crunchy and great, the chicken nuggets, I could split them and see the chicken inside breaking smoothly. Then the coke, for some reason, the coke just tastes better. Great place, kept clean, friendly staff, decent prices, great atmosphere, I was served quickly as well, if I could, I'd give this place a 6 stars.

First time trying and I was not disappointed, the chicken was amazing and one of the best chips I’ve ever had! The store was super busy and the food was super fresh, keep up the great work. The guy that served us behind the counter was friendly and helpful.

Finally tried out Super Rooster after many recommendations from locals and it did not disappoint 🙂 Chips are crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside and the seasoning is TASTY! Fast service considering we went at a peak time and it’s not a massive fast food chain, and the service was so lovely.

Some of the freshest chicken I've ever tasted. Might sometimes take a wait in the drive through but we'll worth it

My husband and I had lunch and upon arrival ordered drinks from a waitress who could only be described as uninterested, rude and was as cold as ice. My husband asked if we could be moved to a quieter area as there weren’t many patrons in the restaurant. Once again served by the same waitress who obviously told her manager we were being difficult, as the manager came out to the dining area to grab some cutlery and looked directly at us in disgust. We won’t be back and whoever the owner of the restaurant is needs to be aware that this type of behaviour and service needs to be fixed. If you don’t want to be there just leave I’m sure there are many other nice waitresses that would love the job.

We had dinner last Wednesday night, the food is amazing no complaint at all. Customer service was terrible, only person that was happy about his job was the tall young man and the guy with a moustache. One of the manager, i think, was very rude. Come up to our table without any manners interrupting us in the table and ask about the food choices i made on my order, just no care at all about the customers. Play area was locked as well so thats disappointing for my kids. We just moved in around the area and this is the closest pub for us but we won’t be going back there.

Spent 2 nights of no sleep. Nothing like the photos on the website. The rooms smelt musty and the bed you can feel the springs poking through the mattress. The photos they use on the website are different even the cupboards are different colour and newer looking in photos. The tiles on floor you can see your own marks from walking as it has a film on it from whatever is used to clean it. Accomodation places need to be more honest with their advertising, especially the price we all pay to stay. Definitely won’t stay here again nor will we recommend.

We recently had my father's wake in the deck room. The food platers were great and enough food on each. The staff had it already at the agreed time and very helpful and courteous.

Had meals here, great value for money, fresh fish with the fish and chips. $12 kids meals that include drink and ice-cream. Great kids playground plus separate indoor kids playroom. Great for families, we will return.

Staff was very friendly.We were visiting on Mother’s Day $50 each for lunch buffet - i don’t think it’s worth this money and most food item from the buffet appeared to be a finger food from the package such as calamari or prawn fries, fish with no cream sauce, only gravy for beef, chips , potatoes salad . No coffee or tea served as advertised and LONG Que to get food! I won’t rush back for this buffet very soon !!! Sorry I didn’t take much photos!

A very busy lunch time session for the hotel on 4 May 2025. Staff were terrific and went out of their way to ensure everyone was happy with their meals and drinks. Well done everyone and thank you Gabbie in particular.

Staff not attentive(head down, carrying on,avoiding eye contact) while customer enters shop & stands at counter to be attended. Atleast aknowledge customer with a smile or just say hello wont be long. Plastic fork and knife ☹ & poached eggs were more like boiled eggs

My bowl was beyond mexcellent! Despite the location, Raw Energy is a must visit! The staff were 10/10 on friendliness and service and I’ll be dreaming about the meal I had here. Thanks for having us Raw Energy! Instagram: theorangenapkin

quick and friendly service, and beautiful food presentation. gf and vegan options.

I wanted to say 5 stars and perhaps on another visit they'd earn it. I've been meaning to try this place for some time now - it's always busy and has that cool 'health food/organic' vibe about it. The yogi bear smoothie was weirdly the only one with protein powder in it, so too bad if you wanted something else. I like the yogi though, nice flavour. Good and THICC. I had the eggs benny - a classic and a good choice to gauge the quality of a brekky joint. I went with smoked salmon, bacon and avo salsa. All of these elements were good. Personal preference would've had the toast a little toastier but not a major point. The hollandaise had a nice creamy mouth feel. It left a slick oily film about my mouth which was a little weird, almost like a snail had pleasantly been tickling the inside of your mouth, leaving his little trail around. Sounds gross, but the sauce was tasty and the freshness of the avo salsa cut through the oiliness of the hollandaise nicely. The best part of this visit was the company - a post workout brekky with friends is a recipe for a good time. A minor slip up in service, one of the guys had to go and re-order his drink. Didn't have to re-pay though. Reasonable. They admitted the mistake though so forgivable offence. Unforgivable mistake - another friend (who, importantly, is allergic to peanuts) ordered a yogi with no peanuts (logically) and on coconut milk, where his wife ordered the same but with peanuts. When drinks came out and the question arose which drink was the peanut-ful and which was peanut-free, the lack of confidence was disturbing. Talk about a deer caught in headlights, that's exactly what this Girl was, standing there with two drinks and one guys life in her hands. Thankfully [name censored for privacy] was able to taste which was which and save the day and her husband's life. Sounds like a dramatic slip up but given how busy this place was, it's not hard to see how this kind of oversight could arise. Perhaps just a little more attention to detail and this would be a five star review. EDIT: wait times can be pretty long

Delicious food, heaps of variety on the menu and a really nice place to eat in. Will definitely be back.

Great coffee!! Amazing presentation and fresh really nice food.

Love the food, so fresh so healthy! Great friendly service ! Our go to 🥰🥰👏👏

We were up from Brisbane on a day trip and we stumbled across this place and we were so impressed with the food fresh hot and delicious. Even was given a little starter of a chicken nibble each on arrival which was amazing. Met a really nice worker there who chatted to us and was a pleasure. Great place !

Enjoyed a meal here with friends. We were offered free chicken wings while waiting for our meals. Most of us had the steak special which was cooked to perfection. The chips were superb and veges cooked perfectly. The portions were generous and we could not fit dessert in. The man who was serving us was polite, friendly and attentive. We couldn't fault the meal or service. We would definitely return here again.

Absolutely beautiful venue, clean and tidy! Lovely staff and the food was phenomenal! I had the steak and it was cooked to perfection! Will definitely be coming back

We sat down at the table and they bought out complimentary chicken wings, they were delicious. We ordered the roast pork meal, the crumbed steak meal and the gluten free chicken meal. All were of a decent size. Service was good, friendly staff.

Large meals served in a very timely manner. Garlic bread was dripping yummy and crunchy at the same time As always the free entre chicken pieces served hot & crispy with BBQ sauce to wet the appetite. Very relaxed atmosphere not noisy or crowded table settings. Overall a very highly recommended place for a value for money meal.

First time had the steak special with chips n salad, very good a great pub meal. Second visit had an Angus patty burger with bacon etc well made excellent burger, but the brioche bun was not for me, bit doughy n sweet. Next time the steak sanga works will be the go.

This was our first visit to the newtown hotel and is a must go again.. The meals are large n absolutely beautiful.. Staff were lovely service was great. Atmosphere was lovely with fire place going. Definitely make a table booking though. It gets really busy

As another reviewer has commented, it's typical pub food. Takeaway this time, they were busy with a delay as a result. Portion sizes are generous for the money. The buffalo wings were battered (unusual presentation) and tasted more of barbecue sauce than buffalo sauce. The hangover parmi was decently sized, a bit overcooked. And what's with honey mustard dressing on almost every salad in the Toowoomba region these days?

My sister called and booked a table at the Westbrook hotel last week on the 10th of August. She booked for a table for 25 people for 12:30 on the 17th of August. The lady on the phone confirmed and said she would write it down on their reservation book. This lady was wonderful and nice on the phone. My sister said she would call and confirm the day before the booking. The attached screenshot shows my sister called the western tavern yesterday morning to confirm and change her booking from 25 to 26 people. The man on the phone confirmed yesterday he would change the booking from 25 people to 26. When our group showed up today to celebrate my sisters 19th birthday, the man we talked to told us there was no booking under Campbell. This is not the first time the Westbrook tavern have messed with our booking, the staff also had wrote the wrong number of guests on our reservation this time last year. This is absolutely devastating , we luckily were able to get a last minute booking at another restaurant. We do not recommend booking here, and the booking system should change for this to not happen to another family.

Staff and venue was generally nice for a quick beer. Food was brought out quite quickly but the quality was horrible for the price point. We bought an array of different items and each was poorly assembled and of low grade.

Food was great - servings very generous & served piping hot & quickly. We really enjoyed our dinner at the Tavern & will take our son & his family when the next visit us.

Staff very friendly and quick to serve. Food came out quickly and was well presented. The sirloin steak was cooked well and the salad garnishes were very nice. The parmigiana had a nice flavour however the schnitzel was very dry, tasted like it was cooked earlier and reheated.

The lamb cutlets were alright, nothing special, but 2 party members were served borderline raw lamb. I pointed this out and was offered a free desert, after I declined I was given a full refund.

Standard tavern food and drink. The steak sandwich was pretty good. The staff were great. Would visit again.

Had dinner here on Easter Sunday with a work colleague and we both enjoyed our meals. We ordered steaks, which were cooked exactly to our liking. The side of steamed vegetables was generous in size and served without any excess oil — a great light option to start with. We also tried the Korean chicken wings, which were tasty and had just the right amount of spice. Meals came out quickly, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Will definitely be back.

The food is great but we found we were eating it in a crowded area on stools and more drinking tables with not enough room. Felt a bit like cramming as many as you can so I think their needs to be a rethink about presenting the food in a better way where it can be enjoyed as it is good. It's just the lack of good seating that detracts.

I wanted to take a moment to commend the incredible improvement in food quality over the past few months. As a frequent diner visiting 2-3 times a week, I have had the pleasure of trying most of the meals on the menu and each one has been exceptional. I had my family reunion dinner this past Saturday and all of my family members were really impressed with the quality of the meal especially steaks as it was perfectly cooked. The flavors were perfectly balanced, the ingredients especially the salads are noticeably fresher, and the overall attention to detail is truly commendable. It’s clear that the kitchen puts a lot of passion into their food. Please extend my gratitude to the chef and management team. Thank you

Everything was good but you need to deal with the crackheads camped out the front and hanging around the gaming and bar. No security to speak of just all the girls/ladies on the floor. They handled the situation well but if it went sideways there could have been an issue. Looks like a great family pub but need some door staff to maintain some order.

I've always found upstairs private events to be fantastic, but our recent visit to the main restaurant was quite disappointing. We ended up at a table with a cold air conditioner pointed at the table between two TVs, and within 10 mins we were freezing. We considered moving, but as there is no table service and we'd ordered on the app, we thought we'd wait for our food and then move to avoid confusion; it ended up taking 45 minutes, with the entree delivered with the mains. The menu on the table didn't match the one on the website, for instance vegetarian meals weren't marked as such on the physical menu. The menus were also large and scattered on tables, which would have been in the way if we didn't have a second table close by to place them on. The ravioli felt like a lot of pasta without substantial filling, and it was undercooked. The pork belly was good, though. The prices are quite high for what feels like a pub experience in a fancier venue. Overall it was a mediocre visit and we'll choose an alternative venue next time we want a date night at that price point.

A Tuesday night so wasn't busy yet somehow they forgot our entrees and the food came out at 20 minutes apart. Value for money is not the case here but I must say the quality was good. Fish plus chips and green salad shouldn't cost this much as that's a cheap meal to prepare.

Phoned to see if there was a table on a Wednesday night. Told there was but couldn't guarantee it would still be available when we got there. We almost didn't come because of that. Decided to try because we hadn't been before. When we arrived and walked in, about 3 staff walked past us without greeting us. Eventually spoke to the bar staff who directed us to where some table were. Heaps available. Didn't get told there wasn't table service. Ordered entre and mains. Didn't take too long for entrees. Wasn't even finished entree and the mains arrived. Meal was ok but not wow like I expected.

I ordered the Combination hokkien Noodles, boneless duck with plum sauce and beef omasum. The restarant was almost empty, only one other table was seated, but it's a very nice place. Food came out of the kitchen surprising quickly. Staff was very friendly. The duck in plum sauce was superb, the meat fell apart in my mouth. The plum sauce was a tad sweet for my taste, but I don't have a sweet tooth (I prefer a savoury meal to a dessert anytime), so that's a question of personal preference. Noodles were great and so was the omasum. I didn't know what an omasum was, but quickly googled it. I recommend it highly. I think even if you are squeamish and don't like food that looks weird, it'll be an easy challenge to conquer because it tastes great.

The atmosphere and the service was good however the food is quite average compared to other places with similar pricing that I have been to. We tried around 4-5 mains with rice. The food was served quite fast and the portion sizes were good. Almost all the dishes we got were a little too salty. Overall I'd say it's a good spot with lots of seating if you're after a meal while shopping

Great place to have a nice dinner and is in a quiet part of grandy. For starters I ordered the pork buns and they were great, sort of like the ones you get in the freezer but a lot better, then I moved onto the Mongolian lamb that came out on a hot plate and was a nice spectacle and also kept the food nice and warm. My partner ordered the honey chicken and the mixed starters platter, she was very happy with her choice and I obviously got a try as well. The chicken was just how I like it, soft with just enough crunch on the battering but still was able to have the honey sauce absorb into the coating. The starters were quite nice too but I do wish everything came with just a little more sauce. Lastly we had deep fried ice cream and I had no idea what to expect as I haven't had it before but I was definitely happy with my choice, the coating could be a little more crispy but it was still a nice taste and looked great. Tldr: Definitely worth a try and has an overwhelming amount of options, would need multiple visits to try even half of the menu. Has room for improvement but overall was a pleasant dining experience.

Such great staff and hospitality. We came in last night when they were very busy, but the staff tried their hardest to make sure our food came out on time. Everything we ate was delicious and hostess was so kind. Despite them being busy, they went above and beyond to ensure we received great service. Thankyou!

Absolutely amazing place. The workers went above and beyond with their service, they even took a picture of my group without us even asking. They even brought out a scoop of deep fried ice-cream with a sparkirler and sang happy birthday to our friend - no idea how they even knew it was her birthday, amazing! I had two sevres of pan fired dumplings and two sevres of steamed pork dumplings, they were sublime. Overall delicious food and absolutely brilliant service

We ordered various dishes, the San cho bao was deplorable, we have been eating from this restaurant for quite a few years now, and have noticed a steady decline in quality. Last time we order from here. Picture of the San cho bao below, which consisted of 90% Carrots and corn pumped up with a layer of fried noodles , Shame $12 😤😤😡😡😡

The restaurant was a little messy with just one young girl working. I had to wave her down to order however there was not even 3 tables being used when I arrived l. There was lots of dirty tables so I guess she had a bit of a busy time before I arrived, the dumplings are not made on premises can tell, that’s was a big let down for me, the chicken feet where nice, the chicken omelette was nice too. Would like to go back and try maybe a stir fry or other food :-)

Our party of 6 came for lunch on Easter Saturday. Food came so quickly and was delicious and value for money . I also had the $12 Tommy Margarita which was also delicious! We had the Taco salad bowl with chicken, slow cooked pulled beef nachos and grilled chicken nacho fries and the authentic burrito.

Honestly, it's quite disappointing. The taste of the grilled chicken was nice, but the number of chips included was very lacking and made this not feel like a complete meal. The chips looked appealing but fell flat on flavour. The quesadilla were also small, skinny, and soggy with little filling. I could have got a pack from aldi for $5, which would have been more filling. Lastly, the serving of rice for $3 was about 4 table spoons in a plastic container. It's not really acceptable. onion rings were decent. The servers were nice, but overall, we had eaten our meals in a very short time and are left feeling a little short-changed. For $40, this was a light snack, not an evenings dinner.

Ordered take out to night got 5 different dishes. Most tasted great but there were things missing. But what I am most annoyed about are my chocolate nachos which is advertised as chocolate corn chips, strawberries, ice cream and chocolate sauce I got no strawberries or ice cream So disappointed about this only reason I ordered them Now if I ate in would I of got it all yes so why not when. I take it home Very disappointing that the good wasn't as great as it use to be. 😭

This review rounds out our 3-part series of chain Mexican restaurants in Toowoomba (see also reviews for GYG and Zambreros). not right in town so no surprise that it's a little lesser known. Perhaps a more central location and this place would be a real hit! Menu is by far the most extensive of the 3 franchises. Menus were also pretty beat up though which leads with a bad first impression. I used to come here on Wednesdays for lunch right when this place opened. They did a 25c wings deal and it was honestly great. Wings not that good - dry and small. In fairness they were coated in the correct amount of sauce and the flavours were great. Also 25c. This was a few years ago now though so it was past time to return. For a place with burrito in the name, there was a surprising lack of emphasis on the burrito menu. Lots of other options though so don't worry if burritos aren't your jam, there's something for most people. The fish taco was light and works as a perfect starter if you order just one. Was informed by another patron that it smells very much of fish which I guess is reassuring - that's what I ordered??? No discount for ordering 2 but at 3 tacos you make a bit of a saving. Pricing is reasonable. Good value. Burrito was good and I liked. I didn't love it, but I liked it very much. Ordering is a weird challenge. Some items have a small blue thumb next to them indicating "BB recommended". Others do not... Overall good experience. Those in our troupe who ordered cocktails enjoyed but weren't blown away - more just happy they were available. Annoying that whatever music streaming service they were using had ads - very distracting. All in all though, everything was good but nothing was amazing. Service was a little sloppy for a quiet night but nothing awful - just a few items brought to the wrong table. A little bit of a polish up and a great staple Mexican chain.

Food Is average, and a service fee when you order on their own website? Don't bother, go to Zambrero and get a bigger and a much better tasting burrito for cheaper. You pay the price that they advertise on the menu.

Very disappointed, I could have been given the wrong meal or been at the wrong time of day (2pm) The Burrito I ordered was a “Large” About 1/3 as big as I was expecting and not very flavoursome. Chips tasted like yesterdays chips deep fried again. Only reason for 2 stars was the staff member was polite enough. A shame as I was looking forward to trying it!

Such lovely food. It did feel very genuine to an uneducated Mexican like me. The staff might not have been perfectly dressed, but very friendly and efficient and once again genuine. Made me feel comfortable. The meals were in my opinion great value and when they arrived they were very pleasantly dished up. I'm a big eater and i was totally satisfied. Will definitely be coming back. Very cool premesis!

I just happened upon this lovely cafe while driving around in circles😂 The sign out front was inviting, so I gave it a try. I enjoyed the relaxing indoor/outdoor environments, the well prepared and presented food (I had nachos) and the unique experience. Coffee was good. I would describe the menu as traditional cafe brunch meals with lots of Asian fusion options.

Absolutely stunning service and food, cute little cafe with heaps of range on their menu Salmon eggs Benny was extremely generous with the salmon serving and was hands down the best eggs Benny I’ve had!

First time here. Enjoy the food. Friendly staff too. I would come back when I’m in town next time.

Took Mum for brunch. Nice atmosphere & very friendly service. Food was 10/10 Had eggs benedict, the tastiest chicken burger & their passion fruit lemonade 😋

I got the spicy waffle chicken eggs Benny (I replaced the waffle with toast) and it was absolutely delicious best breakfast iv had in a long time so so yummy and the iced choc was pretty great to 😊 definitely going back … Went back! Same quality breakfast and the passion fruit lemonade is to die for!! Amazing amazing amazing!!!

Omg, sooo yummy! My tummy is happy. 😘

Brilliant service, lovely staff, very accommodating. Eggs benedict, coffee and berry smoothie were all fantastic. Beautiful atmosphere with gardens and water feature, perfect breakfast stop. Highly recommended.

UVA Wine Bar in Toowoomba is an absolute gem, and a visit here is far more than just a drink; it's an experience curated with genuine passion and expertise. From the moment you step through the door, you're enveloped in an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and incredibly welcoming. UVA Wine Bar is more than just a place to enjoy a glass of wine; it's a testament to the art of hospitality. If you're in Toowoomba and looking for an evening of exceptional wine, delightful company, and truly outstanding service, do yourself a favour and visit UVA.

Uva is the place to go if you want to try a new wine(s) a place to sit with a glass of fine wine while waiting for the rain to pass before heading home or to enjoy a glass of wine before or after dinner in an intimate place with a cozy atmosphere. Light snacks are available to complement your choice of beverage.

Small and cozy - Great location, great service and some delicious treats on the menu! Would definitely recommend

Came from Europe and I was in the area on business. I was alone, they were warm, friendly, helpful, hospitable and kind. The drinks were great, they have knowledge of different gins and wines from around the world. The cocktails are highly consistant and great. The snacks looked very tasty but I had food which they brought in from their sister restaurant Bergen (which has one of the best menus I have seen in Australia until now). The food was very good. A wonderful night

Not sure why people rate this with 5 Stars. My first visit there was a child around 4-5 years of age in the bar (unacceptable). Second visit I ordered a Margarita which arrived slightly cooler than room temperature. When I ordered a second I asked for it to be shaken a little longer the owners reply was”I don’t shake them I just stir them”.

Thoroughly enjoyed a cheeky Friday arvo, savouring a shared platter of delicious cheeses, olives, fruits, you name it. The lovely Kat paired our platter with several wine varieties, sharing insights into their production and palates. Happiness abounds.

We enjoyed a couple of red wines with bread and dips ("Trio of Dips"). The bread was oiled and toasted TO PERFECTION. Bread and red wine is my absolute favourite thing to consume, and uva did not disappoint. Tiny tiny point of constructive criticism - so tiny it does not warrant giving any less than five glorious stars: Shiraz temperature. It is commonly held that red wine should be served at room temperature. This is true, if your room is exactly 17°C. Will give six stars* if the red wine temp comes down by a few degrees. *Due to Google Maps technical limitations I may not be able to bestow six stars, but it's the thought that counts.

I had lunch with a friend at Cobb's Coffee Shop on Friday 24th January 2025. The food, service and atmosphere were excellent. The menu prices were very reasonable and the service was fast. The menu was vast and caters for all tastes. Highly recommend this coffee shop.

Had lunch here today, very nice staff and service was good. Enjoyed my coffee but one of their specialty dishes the homemade sausage roll was not very nice. Pastry was undercooked but the filling was just awful. So solid and dry, I just couldn’t eat it. The salad was ok but very chunky and probably too much.

Visiting Toowoomba for carnival of flowers I saw the #eats leaflet & thought I must try a deconstructed iced vovo. They were busy, very busy. As I got to the counter I noticed a sign stating all meals to be served in takeaway containers throughout September. So I asked if the vovo was and thankfully she said no, but you can order it if you prefer that way. Nope I wanted to try it exactly as it was pictured. Now as I went to order I said I don't know where I'm going to sit as all the tables were now taken. A lovely gent named Steven or Stefan ( tall fella with longish dark hair) went off to find me a seat. Escorted my back to my table. Returned a few moments later just to 'fix' it up, even though it didn't need it for me. This guy needs a raise, what an awesome staff member. Plenty of parking normally available, but for carnival of flowers it's a bit of a fluke. As for the iced vovo, it was pretty, sad tasted ok. But definitely could have been done a bit differently, maybe more coconut or something. But I'm glad I tried it, service was 5/5

Great service from the staff. Coffee and tea were perfect, and the food delicious. We enjoyed the Thai Pumpkin Soup with Sourdough bread.

Good food. Friendly service. Kid friendly environment. Price is not too food either.

Excellent fast service of quality cafe food. Friendly staff were keen to assist. Easy parking on-street or off-street.

Had lunch on a busy Sunday. Best hot chips we have had in a very long time. The milkshake was highly rated by teen. Friendly and welcoming staff. Very reasonably priced. A suggestion from another teen was "please have more descriptions on the menu so [he] could ask to have the bits he doesn't like removed". Thank you.

Very cool cafe. They had a young guitarist performing live on the stage when we went. He was playing covers of pop songs ranging over the last few decades. Nice place to have a coffee or a meal. Very friendly owner and staff. I only tried a milkshake but it was decent.

Love love love the interior. Just a really nice atmosphere and really nice people! Love that they do live music too.

A great spot for a tasty breakfast and good coffee. We grabbed the eggs Benny and a BLT burger. They've got nice and fresh gluten free burger buns which hold together and serve the filling well (all you want from a gf bun). We had great friendly service and the pleasure of some live music on a Friday morning. The bit of roadworks out front were easy to work around, and the entry was accessible with no troubles getting in. Was peaceful as anything inside and a very enjoyable spot. Thanks for a great brekky!

Great food and some lovely guitars on the wall. It's nice to see some fresh ideas happening in Toowoomba. Live entertainment is great. It would be nice to see a guitar group start once a fortnight so we could get started in playing.

For lovers of deliciours food and lovers of music Café guitar is perfect for you. Not only is there good service but the guitars that are on desplay are magical from the diffrent clour patterns to the guitars themselves being pices of art. I know that this has become my favourite café in toowoomba and if you try it, i bet it will become yours too.

One of my favourite brekky spots...great food awesome coffee and super friendly service. My walking group have been to every Cafe in town and Cafe Guitar is in our favourite list

What's not to like... Brekky was fresh and tasty and price was reasonable. Coffee very yum for my taste. Atmosphere here is right up there, very cool. The ladies doing duty were very pleasant and efficient. Recommended

I wish there was a 0 star rating for service. The 2 girls at the counter who served us were so rude and seemed like serving us was a pain. They looked at us rudely, and spoke in a terrible manner. They definitely don’t seem like they want to be working and serving customers. My friend asked them to throw her empty coffee cup in the bin and she said “there’s a bin by the door” she then went over to her coworker and said something about us whilst looking in our direction. Absolutely horrible. Hire nicer people who enjoy their job.

You'd think the staff have never seen cash before. If I pay with cash, I expect there to be enough cash in the till to not give me a handful of 5c pieces. Food was average, staff was forgetful about what was asked for. I speak clearer than most people, so the fault is either with their hearing or their short term memory. It takes too long to be served at the best of times, and the meat was left on an unheated counter for an unreasonable amount of time. I'm usually not picky, but this is the 3rd visit I've had with substandard service and quality of food. The price, being premium, means that I expect a hell of a lot better. When I can buy an expertly cooked steak for $4 more than a burrito at another establishment, and wait less time for it to be prepared, then there's a problem with your business model. I will be voting with my wallet and avoiding the place. I should add that the 2 girls behind the counter were disrespectful at best and downright rude on several previous occassions. Friday night, 1830hours approximately. I don't like being treated with disrespect, but I let it slide once or twice. 3 or more times and it becomes obvious that the person serving has a poor attitude.

Really delicious, fresh tasting Mexican. Got the supremely burrito and it was very well sized

It was nearly four pm and I'd finally climbed the range Un-lunched and keen to eat - I wondered, "Where-O?" The Burger joint reviews were running hot and cold I Mexed it up - and walked into Zambrero It's not boutique, but such a better option Than Dirty Bird, or Hungers, if you dare-O; Toowoomba's solo staffer did her duty very well I enjoyed my bowl of Nachos at Zambrero

Meals ordered well in advance but not ready - had to wait for them to start making them. Wrong meal supplied with our order. Didn’t realise until had driven home. Contacted store and received no reply (over a week+). Food that was correct was well made.

The staff here are always happy and friendly and the food is healthy and delicious!! Thanks to all for making the effort to deliver delicious food and give us a great dinner experience (and somewhere warm to eat!!).

The problem with this place is that it indubitably gets compared to GYG. Something about apples and oranges but this is more like comparing a Pink Lady with a Granny Smith. I've come twice this week, once for lunch and once for tea on a Friday night. Not a good place if in a hurry. Takes a while if there's a queue (cheers to the Karen in front of us with an order of about 100 items). Possibly understaffed, only ever one server on at a time. Once you're up you're up though so be ready to order. On the topic, the "Order Here" sign? Worst positioning possible. The best way to describe it is Subway but Mexican. In that regard it's kinda gyg with a bit more of an "Eat Fresh" vibe. Again though; apples and oranges. Music? Some hits but also some songs are very miss. Seats quite low. Is that a bad thing I'm not sure but definitely very low seats. Child seat also on display. I don't have kids though (thank goodness) so not an issue for me but good to know they're catering for everyone. Pros: large degree of customisation available. Cons: large degree of customisation available. Thankfully they offer suggestions. I like this. On the Friday I ran a burrito featuring pork, white rice, beans, sour cream, guac, tomato, onion and corn salsas, cheese, lime juice and chipotle sauce. Can recommend this combo. The mix of salsas was delightfully refreshing. The sauce with a mild heat that was perfect for my sensitive bowels. I had the red chilli sauce on my first time here and while delicious and surprisingly easy on the heat at the time, it had an afterburn that left me dreading the final 'farewell' of the sauce. Biggest drawback is no sides available. Big let down. The burrito only provides mild satiation. Great for lunch, not so much for dinner. Add some potato chips to the menu and winner for sure. They proudly advertise the number of donated meals. I'm all for doing your bit for the world but the 1:1 ratio of donated:purchased meals does make me think maybe I'm paying too much? Definitely run the tomato+onion+corn salsa combo. My goodness. Neon lights are always cool too.

5 stars and massive shout out to the guy that helped me out today in the bottle shop section. His first class service and personalised recommendations were spot on! Can't wait to come back to both this venue and the linked Bone Idol pub again. Loved the raspberry sours And thank you for the hot tip on the bone idol Dunkel 👍. Legend 😎

We had an incredible lunch at The Plate in Toowoomba! We ordered the flash-fried Harvey Bay squid, two grass-fed rib eye steaks, tallow-fried chips, and charred local carrots—and every bite was delicious. The steak was hands down the best we’ve ever had—so tender and full of flavour. The chips were super moreish, and the carrots were perfectly charred and sweet. Definitely check out the lunch specials too—great value and the dishes looked amazing coming out of the kitchen. Highly recommend!

We visited The Plate for my birthday, after reading so many glowing reviews, and unfortunately left feeling really disappointed. My husband had booked it as a special treat while we were visiting from Brisbane. We ordered the Steak Plate Sharing Feast at $65 per person — spending $260 on food alone for our group of four adults (one of which was a shared plate). For that price, we expected a generous and memorable meal. Sadly, the portion sizes were incredibly underwhelming. The platter included one small piece of each steak cut, a tiny bowl of chips, a small side of carrots, a few scattered green vegetables, a bowl of salad, and tiny servings of sauce and gravy. One of us even asked if more food was coming — it just didn’t feel like enough for a group of adults. The waitress confirmed it was the full meal, but we ended up going home to eat more afterward. To be fair, the food itself tasted good and the presentation was nice — but the pricing simply didn’t match the serving sizes. We’ve had more generous, better-valued meals at well-established restaurants for less, so this felt especially disappointing for a birthday dinner. We love supporting local venues and we understand the pressures hospitality businesses face, but this experience didn’t live up to the expectations set by the menu or the reviews.

Rating: 2.8/10 (Partner: 2/10) Our experience was nothing short of disappointing. While the empanadas were passable (6/10 from both of us), everything that followed left a lot to be desired. We waited over an hour and a half for our mains — an outrageous delay, especially considering we both ordered the 300g rump steak with “beef tallow” fries. What eventually arrived could have been made at home — and frankly, would have been better. The steak was bland, the fat caps weren’t rendered, and the fries were barely warm (being generous). To make things worse, a gentleman and his daughter were seated two places down from us. They arrived ten minutes after we did, ordered, ate, paid their bill, and left a full ten minutes before our mains even hit the table. That alone says everything about the inconsistency and lack of care in the service. The cornbread with maple butter? Burnt on the outside, somewhat salvaged inside, but overall just another letdown. After sitting for two full hours, we canceled dessert and left thoroughly dissatisfied. Two hours. For one mediocre starter and one of the most underwhelming mains we’ve had in recent memory. Would not return. Would not recommend. Poor service, painfully slow kitchen, and food that simply doesn’t measure up to the wait or the price.

We love this place! The food was so full of flavour done to perfection. Price was spot on and the meal size was on the generous side. Calm cool atmosphere and friendly helpful staff.

Had been hearing goods reviews from people and boy did it love up to the hype! Easily one of the best steaks I've had in a long while. They're expensive, but you get exactly what you pay for. The fat fried chips are a must! All the guests I was with said their food was amazing and would visit again (as would I). The buffalo wings were above average. Not the best but something I'd get again. Can't be helped but if a VERY noisy restaurant isn't your thing, best to steer clear at least until most nights aren't booked solid. Food was prompt and staff were very friendly and personable. One recommendation I would have for management is to have some sort of time limit for tables, especially during fully booked periods. Had to wait for 20 mins at the bar because the previous booking we're only just receiving their deserts. In the end, another table had finished and we were seated.

Service can be hit or miss unfortunately but when it's good the staff are friendly and attentive. Not a fan of the new menu model, I know the response to this will be the rising product costs, but that doesn't account for the underwhelming experience of a steak sitting alone on a white plate. For return customers especially, knowing you previously would pay the same price for the steak and get sides included. Now I have to buy a $40 steak and an additional $27 if I want some chips & salad on the side. It is a higher end venue but the customer experience is important and there could be a balance between profit margins and the presentation as customers always want to feel they are getting their moneys worth. I'm not suggesting going backwards but maybe the additional sides you order can come on the plate with your steak so it looks like a full meal.
