Salamanca Wharf Cafe - Hobart

We had a 7am reservation but when we arrived, the chef opened the door at 7:05 and said he was the only one working. We had to write down our orders and the waitress took our coffee orders at around 7:15. Only one meal out of the eight we ordered came within 10 minutes, the rest took 45 minutes or longer. The meals sat on the counter for 15 minutes before being served. When we complained, they offered to make new meals and the next batch came at 7:45, with the last one arriving at 8:12. When we went to pay, we felt it was unfair to be charged the full rate. The waitress explained there was a holiday surcharge, but we pointed out that it was not a holiday in Tasmania on December 21st. Despite the issues, the food was eventually satisfactory and we may consider returning.

The title says everything. came with the family, should have gone straight. there was an unfortunate table of 8 sitting grumpy. I soon realized that they were grumpy to wait for her to eat! our breakfast lasted 45 minutes. average food., definitionw not worth the wait.

We were a group of 6 meeting for breakfast- there was one other table of diners when we arrived. It took over 25 minutes for the first 2 coffees to come out the next 2 hot drinks came about 20 minutes later and the...remaining 2 arrived an hour after we arrived -50 minutes after we ordered. However other customers were coming in and being served drinks or take away coffees. We wrote our own breakfast order and took the counter as we were getting hungry- we had at least 5 presentations to the counter to check on our order and to ask why others were being served before us when they had presented after us it took 70 minutes after we arrived to be served breakfast. My quinoa bowl was average unseasoned pretty bland tasting. The white hot chocolate was in a really small cup. The others enjoyed their meal once it finally arrived. The staff were very apologetic but we kept seeing others being served and being told ‘sorry we are very busy’ A very disappointing experience. We have had a few friend catch ups here but will be sourcing another venue in the future.

Ordered our breakfast for 4 people and the girl forgot to write down my order. Didn't even check why 3 people had a meal and the 4th didn't. Husband asked at the counter about it and the wait staff was so rude just said not...written on the order didn't offer to fix it or apologise, nothing. Won't be back

I waited 40 minutes without receiving even a glass of water. Eventually, I gave up and left. I recommend going up the road to Battery Point instead.
