Food was delicious. I ordered a sweet brekkie of canadian brioche with bacon , pecans and maple syrup which was yum. Service very slow with the coffee orders. Need more staff for this duty to handle all the customers. Very busy place around 8am. Can get alittle noisy. Not the place to go if you are after peace and quiet... More

The Gunshop Cafe was easy to find, easy to get a park and easy to get a table (apparently harder at the weekend.) I wasn't impressed with the "please wait outside to be seated" sign on the door but it didn't take long and we had a window table a great coffee. My trout was a second choice but a... More

For an establishment that on the surface appears to be very simple, the Gunshop Cafe is anything but. The food menu not only changes daily, the combination of the choices is quite remarkable. The food was fresh & elegantly presented. The serves were very generous & the service staff were extremely friendly and very happy. Top notch for lunch! More

Consistently amazing food. Excellent service and Friendly staff. Try the Mixed Berry French Toast, The potato hash cakes with fetta or the Duck and Venison Sausages. Alternately, if you do not know what to order, pick something, then eat it, go for a walk around West End and then come back for lunch :-) The place never disappoints. The only... More

I've been numerous times and have never been disappointed. Always a consistently fantastic place to eat - whether it is breakfast, lunch or dinner. Parking is the only difficulty but that is negated with The Gun Shop Cafe experience. Do get around to heading here - it is well worth it! More

similar to any high end breakfast cafe except just a bit more interesting. These guys dare to mix it up a bit more and if you dare to order in a not so conservative fashion then you will be pleasantly surprised. More

I would not recommend this place at all. Service was shocking, no apology for food that took over 45 minutes. The drinks we ordered before mains never came out and after asking 3 times for them we gave up - how difficult is a smoothie and orange juice... At the register they tried to charge us for the drinks and... More
