Bomboras Torquay

Delicious food, amazing coffee, and a cozy atmosphere. My friends, family, and I got a nice table inside, and it felt warm and inviting. The coffee was excellent, and most of the food was delicious too, though the bread was a little undercooked and not quite as good as the rest. The only real downside was the customer service. The man who served us (possibly the owner, but hard to tell) gave off a bit of a weird vibe. It was giving, “you should feel pretty privileged to be in my presence”. That aside, the food and coffee were great, and the café itself is lovely.

Went to Bomboras for the first time this morning and Padre’s cafe. I had eggs Benedict which was amazing the Hollandaise/bernaise sauce was yummy and cooked perfectly. The green breakfast salad (see below)was equally well made. Coffees from Padre were nice as well. Great service, food and view. Many thanks.

This place truly delivers on every level – delicious food, excellent service, and a stunning view that makes the experience even better. The atmosphere was calm and inviting, perfect for a relaxing breakfast stop. I enjoyed a cappuccino and a very strong caramel latte that instantly woke me up. The food was beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. I’m already looking forward to coming back to try their lunch menu

Took my wife here for her birthday and we really enjoyed our visit. The food and service were excellent and staff frequently checked in on us. Food and drink came out quickly too. We were visiting Torquay with our dog and didn’t want to leave him at the hotel, we sat outside and were worried it might get cold, but the gas heaters kept us nice and warm. Will definitely be back.

Their big breakfast was absolutely sensational! SO SO good! We called last minute and they were able to seat us on a large table inside. We were so grateful because it was a cold and rainy winter day. Latte was also delicious!

We just had the most delicious lunch of small plates which we shared. Thank you for the wonderful friendly service and the delicious food and drinks. The view over the beach is lovely too!!

Had a fantastic breakfast. I ordered the Vegetarian Bombie Breaky, and it was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly portioned loved the vibrant veggies and seasoning. My chai latte was creamy and spiced just right, a real treat. My partner got the Veg Wrap, which was packed with tasty fillings and had a great crispy edge. Their cappuccino was smooth with a rich foam, exactly how they like it. The vibe was cozy, and the staff were super friendly. Definitely coming back for more!

Ordered the seafood platter. Was serviced prawns instead of the Moreton Bay bug without even being informed. When asked where the bugs where, they simply said there is a shortage of bugs so they swapped them for prawns instead. When I raised that I have seen dishes coming out of the kitchen with the bugs, they said it is available for the seafood linguine. So I asked why is it available for the linguine but not for my platter. Finally the served us two halves of two clearly different bugs. There was no apology, just arrogance from the staff. Food was below average, the prawns, bugs and salmon were overcooked. Terrible service especially on a day there is a 15% surcharge.
