The Whistler - Maitland, New South Wales

Came to the cafe for breakfast with three friends and left the most disappointed i’ve ever been when leaving a cafe.
My partner and I waited an hour for 2x cinnamon scrolls after I had to remind the staff twice because they’d forgotten about them.
I ordered 4 coffees for the table, paid $7.40 for a “Mug” Iced Latte that came in a water cup when the rest of the table ordered small coffees and all had larger glasses.
All coffees had requested vanilla syrup, none of them had vanilla syrup in them.
One of us ordered a sour dough toast with nutella, 45 minutes later, a multigrain piece of bread the size of a small child’s hand arrived over toasted..
We were told that they had run out of bacon for one of our bacon and egg rolls, 35 minutes later, our friends ham and egg roll turned up with a hash brown that could’ve passed as a brick.

I have never been so disappointed with the service and food of a cafe in my entire life.

Had wonderful fast service here today, no issues whatsoever.
Coffee was nice, don’t think the chilli scramble had any chilli in it (not as I would’ve expected) but it was a tasty breakfast either way and everyone else was happy without it.

Beautiful place. I went here for the first time for an engagement party and it's a hidden gem! Enjoyed my several lemon, lime and bitters + alcohol free beer 😁

Enjoyed dinner with a group of 20 people. Menu had a good variety on the menu. The room was a little chilly. The only issue was that the fish I had was dry. Overall service was quick and staff very friendly. Great atmosphere at The Whistler.

I ordered chilli scrambled eggs on gluten free bread with mushrooms on the side. I receive very dry small buttons, so I had to ask for some butter to rehydrate them! Fyi There was bacon crumb on the eggs, which I was a pleasant surprise!

Thank you for the awesome service and delicious food. Really enjoyed it here. The pork belly bites were so nice and crispy. Didn’t get a pic unfortunately they were too delicious lol 😂 but all the other food we had was perfect. The bathrooms and overall restaurant was clean and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Went for dinner last night, 3 of us ordered pork belly, it was terrible it was 95% fat we each only for 4 bites. We left starving and ended up getting McDonald's after. 3 were forgotten and ordered medium rare steak it come out well done. Drinks took a long time. But in saying that the two bartenders were clearly overwhelmed with how busy it was. Definitely need more staff on! (But they were both great)
