The Auctioneer Cafe and Bar — Restaurant in Dubbo

The Auctioneer Cafe and Bar located in the heart of Dubbo is a spit in the face to other legitimate hard working businesses operating in the area. Firstly as a Cafe coffee should be your first priority but I'd only describe it as mediocre at best, it lacks the aroma and robustness you’d expect from a typical cafe.

A thing other reviews made very apparent is that a majority of the food is made off-site meaning it is not fresh, can’t be customized or as the owner would describe “a little too much for you”. The reason is being inside the cramped iron maiden of The Auctioneer Cafe they cannot fit a kitchen.

If you’d like to check their menu the official website is unavailable, their Facebook page is mostly inactive only posting every 1-3 months, finally their Instagram which mostly hosts reuploads of photos that have already been posted to the Instagram and all of which do not contain a menu.

Finally went to quietly, politely, explain the situation… that it was ‘not was I was expecting’. A man I can only imagine might have been the owner came, and brusquely asked what the problem was, became defensive immediately and claimed ‘well there’s nothing I can do now’ and waited for me to walk away. Gave him the thumbs up and left. Wow. I hope for everyone’s sake that the recipe/process or something is addressed with this dish - and potentially the response to issues. Coffee was excellent, waiters...

We had a lovely breakfast here after a day of mediocre food on the road from Melbourne. Staff were helpful and efficient and the menu was eclectic and extensive. I had the avocado mash up on Australian shaped toast bread and my husband has the breakfast burrito. Generous servings accompanied by excellent latte and long black. Some indoor seating but a lovely outdoor area as well. Bathrooms further down the hallway and parking was on the road outside . We grabbed a cinnamon...
