"quite expensive, plus steak doesn't come with sauce and they charge like $2.5 extra.."

"We called in today for lunch and after waiting for over 50 minutes complained to the manager and were told not to talk to him like a child. He was very confrontational and rude. As a result of this treatment and after waiting for an additional 5 minutes, we left after leaving $5 on the table for our drinks. This store must be under new management. I have been a supporter of Hogs Breath for many.." more reviews

With a large family group of 30-odd attending, we were hoping for a good night. My previous two visits had been disappointing, and this was no different.When we arrived, we discovered that our booking for a private room had not been done. The average wait at the bar was ten minutes. A waitress took our orders while someone set up the private room. When we moved in there, our meals took over 45 minutes to reach us. Most of the steaks were very overdone. My wife had fish, which was so overcooked it was dry and flavourless.After our meals, it took over an hour for wait staff to clear the tables.Not impressed.   (foodie58 - October, 2007)

i loved the food, it tasted fantastic, so, my teacher at my school, asked me to write a review for our school newsletter about your cafe, and i was wondering if you had the menu, because i cannot remember what i had ordered, but apart from that, my review is going to be an interesting one. the food was fantastic, the people were friendly. waitresses were respectful. Food came in on time and was not late, beverages arrive on time ass well and was served cold, which was lovely, food was served nice and hot, love the fact that it has to sections, outdoor and indoor, its a people friendly environment, very different to what i am used to but all in all, it was fantastic.   (Fantastico! - October, 2007)
