    The view from the balcony is outstanding! There's a good range of gluten free foods available. Everything I have tried so far is so delicious!! Even though it was crowded we were not bothered by any noise. The staff are friendly and helpful and happy to answer any questions

    Our only problem was the heat on the balcony but it was our choice to sit outside for the view and you can’t control the weather . Inside was cool but a bit noisy and no view. Overall we enjoyed our delicious lunch and will come back again.

    We enjoy coming to Lovewell Cafe and for what they do to help women! But we were there yesterday with friends for lunch when the thunderstorm hit and we were very surprised that we were all asked to leave, as well as some staff, right in the middle of the storm when it was the most dangerous to travel! We thought the cafe would have been left open for the people there until the storm blew over! That was the only disappointing part of the experience. Otherwise we have always had a fabulous time there.

    Waited 20 minutes to be seated following by a 45 min wait for our coffees, where one was missed and had to wait another 20 minutes for. And then a total of just over an hour for our food. I love this place and appreciated the cause but even so the service here is very poor and not just on this occasion but almost every time I go. Compared to Mt Coot-Tha where I have just been where we didn’t even wait 5 mins for our coffees and less than 10 minutes for our food and it was twice as busy. They just need some help and guidance here as they are very unorganised

    It was a serene spot on the day in the midst of rain and sky clearing often. The balcony table we booked was offering beautiful city view, food looked delicious and the taste didn't disappoint. The Mocca I had was perfect to my liking. This was my second visit and brought friends to enjoy this superb place; they loved it too and decided to come back themselves with their friends in future ! Will highly recommend to anyone!

    The menu isn't overly exciting however it's also not overloaded with options. What is on offer has been made and presented well. Coffee is good. The main reason for coming back is 100% for the view and it's a dog friendly venue. Even to find a grassy spot to sit and chat with a second coffee. While waiting to order can be a little slow, it is made up with the quick delivery of food. Tables seemed to clear out fairly quickly therefore we weren't pressured to leave within a timeframe.

    We arrived at an exceptionally busy time when many people were ordering. As we had booked a table we stood at the ‘Wait here’ spot but no one noticed - partly because it could not be seen with the food queue in the way. Maybe change the layout a little? Nonetheless we rally appreciate the Lovewell cafe and will come again.

    We were asked to leave after 1.5 hours... The food wasn't what was written on the menu, there was no dukka and the feta was a liquid. Friendly staff for the most part, they seemed to be trying their best.
