BlockHouse Coffee 130 Ryans Road, Nundah, Queensland 4012

"Disastrous......facts below. Booked table and we're put with half our table in the sun. Decide we'll swap seats to spread the discomfort as no other option. Order coffee and they arrive. Lovely coffees. Order breakfast. 3 out of 4 arrive. Wait patiently about 10mins then ask a waiter where it is. Sure sir I'll find out. Then decide to move tables as the one next to us becomes available, out of the sun and get spoken to quite abruptly. Were told it's also booked and "specifically that table". Wow. 4th meal still not there (20 mins) and ask again, twice!!! Everyone else close to finished. I then cancel the meal as don't feel like eating alone and appetite gone. Also happened to a fruit juice order. It also got missed and asked for twice. Waitress finally brings it out and bangs it on the table. Another Wow!! 4th meal arrives 35 mins late even though cancelled. I send it back. Not paying for it now. Too late ..... Owner comes out and apologizes. Tells us he'll take the drinks off the bill as "compensation" and can we please pay for the meals so he can recover some costs at least. Wow again. Pay $9 for a side of bacon making one meal $35? For breakfast here? No way. What food did come out to the others was delicious. I'm hungry and annoyed. You decide. And to reply to the owners comment .... 1. Calling me a liar shows what you think of your customers. 3 of us wrote the review. It isn't wrong. 2. Deflecting our review with a comment on how your food tastes isn't any good IF THE FOOD NEVER COMES TO THE TABLE. 3. If your staff are rude and abrupt, as they were to us, it's a reflection on you and how badly you run your business. 4. "Compensation" never makes up for rude treatment. $10 of true cost in our drinks is all you gave up. Big deal. A true gesture would've been to wipe our bill completely considering how badly we were treated. I'm sure you know how to get it right and do quite often. But accepting you completely stuffed this service up takes a bigger guy than you obviously are. Maybe next time humbly accept your business failed here and move on."

"The food was good. However, service wasn’t. My coffee came very late, almost end of my Brunch and I ordered it as soon as I sat on table. Different staff also came to check up on me and I asked for my coffee everytime. I understand that it would have been busy day for them but at least an apology or acknowledgment of late service would have been nice. Overall, good experience but might go there again."

"The food was so good, the flavour was exceptional. Nice to have a good quality, delicious breakfast."

"Blockhouse coffee is a fantastic brunch spot that offers a lot of delicious dishes. Their brunch menu looks so gourmet that are sure to satisfy. The menu has vegan/gluten free. Their drink menu is equally impressive, with a wide range of options to choose from. I absolutely love their cold brew chai, as well as the mango smoothie or their refreshing juices like the Flamingo or the healthy Frojo. They also offer traditional coffee options like lattes, flat white as well as specialty choices like cold drip. Wine and beers after 10:30!"

"We had the Portuguese chicken and potato hash cakes with poached egg. The Flamingo juice and latte were fabulous. Definitely recommend! Great service and the chef is always friendly :)"
