I used to go there regularly by myself during the week and it was one of our go to brunch places on the weekend but, since our last experience a few months ago, I've only come back once or twice for coffee and, while the coffee is still pretty good, longshot is no longer a go to for me

The last time we went there for a weekend brunch, I ordered the middle eastern breakfast and the best way to describe it is "reheated". The rice had that kind dryish overcooked taste and feel you'd get when you put yesterday's dish on the oven for a bit too long. It felt less like mis en place gone bad and more like "I can't be bothered paying weekend rates to staff, so I'll just have a junior burger heating stuff prepared the day(s?) before" - that's how bad my meal was. :(

I was especially disappointed because it was a go to place and this happened about 1 month after my last review, when I have them 4 stars and said it offered "consistently good food".

It might be a coincidence but I left wondering if the relative emptiness of the cafe on the weekend vs their bustling weekday trade reflected some kind of weekend quality drop the locals...

Cafe Long Shot could be a local breakfast venue that offers good food, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. Unfortunately it's none of that.

We ordered coffee, scrambled eggs and pancakes for brekkie. The coffee was promptly brought to our table. The food took longer however. When I asked about the food after 20 minutes, the waiter said that it was just about ready. Apparently 10 minute is just about ready and it finally came after 35 minutes. Not a word from the waitress about it being a long wait for us.

While still eating, the waitress started to clear our table. Even reaching over the table to collect the plate my wife was eating from. I understand that they want to clear the table and get us out of the way for new customers, but at least let us finish.

The food is ok. Nothing special, but serviceable.
