W ell, as much as I'd love to say the food is as fantastic as the view, unfortunately, it is very inconsistent.

Breakfasts are very popular, however, for some reason they sometimes find it difficult to get out your coffee before your meal, and some meals will come quick, others not so.

On the coffee, its not the best I have had, but it is consistent and quite good.... this is not Sydney or Melbourne remember.... and I have had much worse around Perth

Dined in the evening twice. Unfortunately dissapointed both times and probably wont try again... unless someone else convinces me that they have improved dramatically. The view is spectacular however in the evening.... so, go with low expectations of the food, take a great bottle of wine or two and have a great night still.....

The staff are sensational... a really lovely bunch of people... always very welcoming

Overall, a great place for a coffee and to watch the great veiw and the world go past..... If you want to eat, breakfast is safest.....

I have also experienced the food at the Wild Fig. With such a fantastic view I too was expecting something special. My experience with breakfast on two occassions has lead me to avoid the place for breakfast.

The first encounter with the big breakfast saw it arrive at the table with dried up cold bacon that was cooked I am sure hours earlier and the two fried eggs stuck together, leathery and hard.

The second encounter the bacon came the same, but at least the egs were still soft.

I will give them this though, they make the best hot chocolate around.
