The Tame Fox — Restaurant in New South Wales

Food: Couldn't recommend this place more! It's amazing! The food was delicious! We had the arancini balls to start which were incredible! Arancini balls are one of my favourite tapas and these were one of the best I've had! I had the tacos for my main meal and my partner had the vege burger. My tacos were so fresh and tasty, definitely recommend! His burger was also yummy but the chickpea chips that came with them were sooo good! They were so crispy and salty, I loved them! The dinner menu is rather limited though which I was surprised about because their breakfast and lunch menu does have more variety including really nice salads which I would've liked to have seen on the dinner menu. But I wasn't disappointed at all with what I got!

Service: The service was incredible! They were all really chill and friendly, the lady who served our table even sat at our table when taking our order which I personally really liked! Our order was placed using iPads and when she couldn't see our table on the app she got another mans help, it was a new app they were using so they needed to add a few things, they were showing us the app and having a laugh with us as we wanted to add a picture of a plant to our table as if we were playing sims haha. The owner was there too and took the time to have a chat with us and say goodbye as we left. He is such a ball of energy and an exceptional person - definitely reflected in his business!

Venue & Decor: They have farm animals and gorgeous outdoor seating which creates this cool country vibe in the middle of a metropolitan area. The decor inside if very natural, beachy, light and trendy, think wicker seating and byron vibes!

Location & Parking: The location is great, right next to Erina Fair, other retailers and businesses. Only 10 minutes from Terrigal or Gosford and plenty of onsite...

Wow… some of the staff need to work on their customer service skills and attitude.

After going in for breakfast this morning, I can safely say that the girl wearing the brown jumper has the most appalling customer service skills I have ever witnessed. It’s a shame that such a lovely place can be almost ruined by such a horrible vibe from that girl. She was passive aggressive, not only to my partner and I, but to other customers as well. We witnessed her going off at a family because their children were playing in the playground. While I understand that it was quite windy today and it was dangerous as the branches from the gum trees could have fallen on the children, the way that she dealt with the situation was not okay. Kids will be kids and a nicer warning from her would have sufficed.

None of the staff were overly friendly either except for the lady at the register. Every place my partner and I have been for breakfast have had the most amazing staff, all so happy and friendly. This place was nearly the complete opposite. Never in my life have I seen waitstaff that are so uninterested.

Food was good but didn’t make up for the service. Smashed avo was a 9/10 but the poached eggs that came with it were...

Place was alright, fairly busy, but quick service.

Food prices are quite high, but maybe that’s because I from out of town, although last night we were eating at Elements in Sydney…so maybe it’s just over priced here.

Food was served quick, the coffee smelled nice, and was strong, but yet somehow bland, also very small.

Food was presented well but the entirety of it was average. No flavour “stood out” on my burger, and the only note worthy things on my partners big fox breakfast was the Eggs and sourdough. The Chorizo was too salty to eat, probably the worst he’s ever tried apparently.

The problem with this cafe wasn’t the preparation, or the presentation, it’s simply the quality of the ingredients. Very cheap and it definitely shows. I wouldn’t return and I do think there is definitely better value to be had elsewhere on the coast.

The last photos is how much I left of my...
