Awesome food, great atmosphere. Sat outside so I could smoke and it was a bit cold so one of the girls asked if I wanted the outside heaters on. Very attentive with great service. The beef cheek was absolutely falling apart while still maintaining its shape.. very impressed, will definitely be back to sample more of the menu
Meals were satisfactory, beef pies and a fish and chips. Been there 20 mins before offered a drink- a missed sales opportunity. Another missed sales chance- we asked if it was possible to have cold dessert in the 15-20 mins remaining before our movie and was told no. Not a busy time for them either. One of the sales staff was pretty good, the other we found not that great. If it wasn’t next to the Bridgeway I don’t think I would go.
Me and my Girlfriend had an amazing experience in this cafe/restaurant and was the perfect way to start the date with it being followed by a movie next door. The food was delicious, the atmosphere totally relaxed, and the staff fantastic. We ate the soup of the day which was a minestrone packed full of flavour and beauty and topped it off with a chocolate brownie which I must say is one of the best and biggest Ive had from a cafe, definitely worth the trip. Will be back for dinner service and a big ol pizza. Clarence road eatery keep doing what youre doing!!
Great breakfast at Clarence Road Cafe – the eggs benedict served on Potato Rosti was amazing, and the eggs were poached well with a tasty hollandaise sauce. The orange juice was fresh and tasty and the coffee I had after was well prepared. A good spot in Northcote Point for breakfast and would definitely be back!
Shaky start but definitely on the improve. A very enjoyable summer early dinner pizza and drink with great service and reasonably priced. Same for a breakfast – it would have been unfair to review after the first visit shortly after it opened. Good service, interesting food and improved coffee means we will be back
This place is average as. Been here multiple times and every time I leave, I leave disappointed and disheartened. Service is average, no enthusiasm just dead behind the eyes. No one wants to take your order, takes about 20 minutes of waiting before you have to get up and order at the counter even though its table service. Food wise usually isnt too bad, not amazing or anything, usually its not to bad. However I had a pizza the last time I was there that was terrible, the base was soggy, undercooked and just lacked flavour. The place wasnt busy so there was no chance that this was an under pressure thing.The only good thing I can say about this place is the coffee, been a long time in the community I often am up at funny hours so having a good coffee is essential to my work, this is the only saving grace of this place otherwise I just wouldnt return. In conclusion I will only return to have a coffee on the go while I get back to looking out for the local community. TL;DRCoffee good, everything else is crap
Avoid. I was a huge fan of the Sausalito when it was open, and after a long wait I finally saw the Clarence Rd Eatery open up. Gone were the homely polished wooden tables, replaced instead by clinical white operating tables. Also gone were the warm colours, replaced by sterile white tiles and lots of blue (because blue is always a colour to associate with food, not). Anyway, the atmosphere of the old Sausalito had evaporated completely, and while this was a huge disappointment, the menu was okay, but now far more expensive for no apparent reason. The Sausalito, my favourite cafe in the area, now became a place I could get a coffee in the sun, where I also had to put up with the lack of atmosphere. There was always a table outside that was salvageable from the terrible decisions made by the owners. Whatever. I at least had that. Until today.I sat down at my table outside and the bland music I used to avoid inside is now being piped outside, right above my head, at the table that was the only nice part left of my cafe experience. Even if the music was music that I enjoyed I still wouldn’t want it piped right above my head. The staff weren’t able to turn it off, and so this created a situation by which I had one choice: put up with the horrendously vanilla muzak, or leave. I chose to leave. I was looking forward to finishing a walk and having a dairy free smoothie in the sun at my favourite table (looking at the sea and away from the cafe mistakes of the owners), but now that has gone too.Billy is a slightly above average cafe, but now that’s the only option around here. It doesn’t have the sun in the mornings, but at least it gets some things right. To the owners: You took a perfectly good cafe, nay, a great cafe, and you made it literally repulsive. Sausalito – Great name, nice music, nice colours, warm, friendly, excited staff, a buzz in the air, quiet outside, groovy inside, reasonable prices, atmosphere, easily a cafe favourite.Clarence Rd Eatery – Terrible name, terrible music, sterile colours, cold, unfriendly to the point of appearing elitist, dull unenthusiastic staff (with the exception of one dimple-faced smiley guy who seems to be the manager, but he doesn’t make up for the tall slouching hangdog waiter or the rest of the uninterested staff they’ve chosen), no buzz, and now no escape from the crap muzak, too expensive, absolutely no atmosphere, and now not a cafe I will ever go to again.What a wasted opportunity this was. I could live with being very disappointed, but the new outside speakers took away literally the only good thing left about that place, and now I’m completely disappointed. What. A. Waste. Of what was once a terrific cafe. Such a shame.
