Cellar Cafe Fingal Bay — Restaurant in Fingal Bay

Parked out front, it was busy inside. Rang to order take away pizza, realised a man in his 30s ginger ish hair was taking my call, after saying what I wanted he asked me to hold, he walked to the back of the store out of sight, return to my vision moments later and I clearly seen him look at the landline he was holding and hang up as I hear the disconnect in my ear. I also could hear inside the shop as he mocked to his colleague about takeaway orders. So I went in pushing through the busy dining area to place an order with a lovely young girl. With an approximate 25 min wait return to my car to free up space. 20 mins later I hear MR NOT INTERESTED softly call my name. The pizza base is thin and super crunchy, nice but my 3 little pigs has roast beef, I'm serious, I guess the little pig went to market! The supreme is not very supreme, overall both pizzas are what I'd describe as " lite" and so little cheese, I honestly don't know if there was any at all🤔. I've now deconstructed it to find cheese, it's there but wafer thin and sporadically sprinkled and melted around.Overpriced but you pay for convenience of not having to go to Shoal Bay. Perhaps if you had a carafe or pint at the Cellar it would...

Just stopped by this lovely local cafe to recharge after walking from Little Rocky to Fingal Bay during the Easter weekend. I was pretty hot after the long walk and craving for a fresh frappe, they offer fresh squeezed juices here and I asked if they could do that as a frappe and blend it up with some extra ice. It was divine and I really appreciate them doing that for me! A mix of fresh orange, beetroot, ginger and some other veges, it was the best thing ever as a pick me up coupled with one of their fresh baked muffins (raspberry, almond, coconut), one of the best muffins I’ve ever had as it was super fluffy, moist, not too sweet or heavy. The service was spectacular too, the guy was so friendly and we had a lovely chat about what it was like to live in the area as a local. Loved it and would definitely recommend a stop by here if you’re...

UPDATED REVIEW: unfortunately the quality of the food here has changed and so is the vibe of the place. Probably due to a change in the staff, the food is not as "home made" and prepared with passion as it was before. So, the food here is now not worth its price anymore, as in addition to the lower food quality, portions are also smaller and price is bigger. I didn't find the staff as friendly and welcoming as they were in the past and not all the beers were available during my last visit. Hopefully next time I will visit they will raise the bar 🤷

I'd give 6 stars if I could! The staff here is nice and welcoming and the food is just superb. Excellent presentation and sublime flavours combined with passion for home made ingredients. Reasonable price and beautiful area to be in. Special place,...
