Saffron Cafe on George - Torquay

Love the friendly, funky atmosphere here. came in the late afternoon, not many choices to lunch, but the helpful waitress hit the vegetarian layer with salat. I was amazed to get a very tasty multi-layered cake with tons sweet potato, delicious! also the great book collection, which is available for buchswap, most impressive. coffee was excellent . I come back with a friend to check other selections. think fez could become a popular hangout for me.

This place has very nice staff. The service was just. Food was top notch. Busy for and earlier breaky. Locals was recommending this place. Will stop at again if I’m in the area.

The beef brisket sandwich is superb!! Juicy meat and the bread is nicely toasted, with fresh vegetables in it. 10/10 recommend! Also ordered a pulled pork burger, not bad, quite juicy! 8/10! Breaky burger perfect condition for the egg! 8/10! However, flat white was not as nice as expected, especially after drinking Higher Ground’s flat white yesterday. Will give it a 6/10.

Pretty busy being a Sunday lunch and first time we've been here. Got a table fairly quickly and had a bit of a wait for orders to be taken, and meals to arrive. Not an excessive wait, but still a little annoying. Coffees came first and we're quite nice but just warm (our pet hate). Meals were basic but quite yummy a bit surprised that we couldn't get chips with our lunch as it would have added to the meal, and would have given added value. Started to rain so asked about moving to an undercover table that was unoccupied and this seemed like a huge request, but eventually approved !! Overall nice food and good location but may not rush back.

Visiting overnight we decided to stop in here for breakfast as it had a nice beachfront view from the tables outside. Overall, the food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. Our only downfall was probably the prices in comparison to other local eateries. There seemed to be a couple of other nearby cafes struggling to compete with the volume of customers who flock to the pond, so be sure to look at everything around!
