Not that great today. No garlic bread available. Meal not really what it was supposed to be. The salad was supposed to have lentils, kale, carrot plus other ingredients but was 99% lentils and tasteless. I felt like sending it back but was too polite. Slow service. Dont think I'll eat there again and will only go there for a coffee in future.

Great view, wonderful food, courteous staff. What more could you want? I recommend going for brunch ( before 11.30 am). Love that menu. Some items are available all day. Vegetarian and vegan option available.

We enjoyed our visit. Service was friendly and efficient. Seafood pasta was good. Others had corn fritters which they enjoyed. Lovely view over Georges River.

A very pleasant lunch yesterday in lovely surroundings. Open air with umbrellas and a smaller indoor seating area. We had the zucchini and corn fritters which were delicious, and I found their coffee was pretty good too! (for a dedicated tea drinker) The area is perfect for children as there is a great playground nearby plus a swimming pool (closed for winter at end of March) Would certainly go back again as there are lots of things on the menu I want to try!

Lovely position very pleasant staff although did not receive all our order. Food average and very limited for children should have a small menu for children’s food.

Great food, service and location. Good value for money and fast service. Only hitch is parking which can be a nightmare on weekends but it’s a minor quibble

This was my first time visiting blackfish and was out for a casual lunch with family. A table was quickly prepared for us and our orders taken promptly. The meals were all exceptional and came out without to long a wait. I will definately be back.

Great location and view. Wait staff friendly but dropped drink over my companion and weren’t compensated. Food was priced very reasonably and presented well. The dishes we selected both came with an ‘Asian slaw’. This was slopped on top of the soft shell crab and the fried calamari resulting in cooling both down. Surely the ,slaw’ or salad goes on the side of the dish.

Fantastic venue, service terrific, friendly staff and great food. Our group of ladies loved the attention the staff showed us but they also left us to enjoy our own company. Well done.

It’s a lovely cafe. The location is amazing and the staff are great and really accommodating. A decent variety of food, would have been better if the seafood platter had less fried stuff.

Atmosphere and location is great, the high tea menu could be more balanced, only 2 savoury dishes and about 6 sweet. Staff are friendly. Could be a bit more attentive and concerned less about clearing away

Blackfish Cafe is an outdoor venue. Beautiful view from restaurant overlooking the Georges River. Umbrellas provide shade and there was a breeze from the water.

Young friendly staff, tasty food. The position above the river is lovely with an interesting outlook. There is a children’s playground near by and ample parking during the week although busy on the weekend.

Overall good experience. We were a party of 9 with 3 children. The children's meals came out first which was good but the adult meals came out 30 min later which meant they were finished before we got started. Food was good, location was terrific and while things were slow coming out we were quite satisfied and will be back.

We loved the view, the service, the food was fresh and tasty. The only thing was the wait for the food, but understandably so given the number of visitors.

Food was hit and miss. Service average at best - one person’s order was missed and arrived after the other 8 people had finished. Location excellent so it’s a shame.

Service was very slow as they were very busy combining takeaways with table service. I also felt that 15% surcharge for public holiday was excessive.

Fab location, service excellent and friendly however my toasted ham, cheese and mustard panini was not the best. It kept sliding apart so really hard to eat and the cheese seemed very processed.... sorry! However other meals looked good...

Perfect Sunday breakfast spot! Food was great and not too pricey. Service was a little slow but it was relatively busy and there's plenty of view to take in while waiting.
