The Food Republic Cafe

It was lunch hour during my visit n I expected a bit of wait for our lunches...Happy to say that all our plates came almost together with short wait. Value for money... Will be back for sure..

We couldn't find a car park and drove round and round looking fir one. Was booked for 12.30but arrived at 12.45. We were told we were late and all he had was a table on Blackburn rd..was very noisy and hot . Food was good but after 2 hrs we went inside for a coffee but the air-conditioning was not working

we pre ordered for a business lunch and the food came out 5mins after we sat down. Everything was great.

Thought the person greeting people at the door could have been dressed a bit more smartly. The cap should go!! Due to bad weather we were allocated a table inside quite quickly. Food is always good at this cafe. Will return.

Had Brunch yesterday with five people They had travelled from Brighton and thought the atmosphere outside near the trees was lovely which included a couple whose daughter had died the day before. I quietly mentioned this to the waiter and he was extremely sensitive to my friends I then stayed on and met two more people who had lunch. They were as equality delighted. i then sy

Beautiful food, generous portion sizes & lovely service, thank you!

Great place for a meal. Large serves and interesting choices.

We regularly visit and love the food. It's always fresh and healthy, with the Vietnamese salad a favourite of many! The service is always friendly.

A most enjoyable experience for all members of the family

All very enjoyable, lovely food, staff very friendly and attentive

Lovely as always! Prosecco delivered with a strawberry touch and the chicken souvlaki special was delicious. Huge serve - could have shared it but so tasty

The young blonde headed lady with glasses was very pleasant, knew what she was doing and looked after our table of 4 very well. I would have no hesitation recommending the food republic cafe to friends.

generally good. Would go again. Would prefer a few more main couse options.

It's always a pleasure to dine at Food Republic

A lovely atmosphere. An extensive breakfast menu but not as big a lunch and other times menu. Great food!

Always a treat to eat here. Food is fresh and beautifully presented.

Visited with my daughter for lunch today and sat outside. We've been coming here for years and the level of service and quality of food is always excellent along with the friendly staff. A great lunch place! They also have a delicious assortment of home cooked take home meals. 🙂

Excellent service and great food. It was really busy but the service was friendly and the food was good sized portions and came in a very timely manner

Service was slower than usual- it was Sunday lunch that we visited and the cafe quite full

Friendly service, prompt and well priced. Very pleasant garden ambience.

Staff should ask guests whether they want any drinks to start after they are seated.

We sat on the verandah on Blackburn rd side. Very bad noise reverberation and it wasn’t very full out there.

The only issue I had was that, when I changed the time of my booking, it somehow converted it from an inside to an outside booking. Other than that everything was great, including service & food.

Great brekkie, great service even though it was a busy morning - always wonderful!

Excellent service, amazing food and very generous serves also easy parking

Loved the food and the overall service. The atmosphere was great too.

Great service as usual, great food as usual pleasant environment reasonable prices.

Lovely food, excellent atmosphere and perfect service! Highly recommended experience!

John and the team do an amazing job always. I had smashed avocado with salmon this morning and a soy latte. Both were fabulous. My partner had scrambled eggs and salmon and loved it also. Well done! Steve😊👍

Excellent service and delicious food. Will definitely be going back.

Best Shakshuka I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommended

A very friendly and welcoming restaurant serving consistently good food.

Requested a table by the window when booking, however when we arrived were told that to book tables by windows that booking had to be made earlier. I was then told that if a table became available whilst we were there then we could move if we wished. We were there 2 hours and within that time tables did become available but we were not advised we could move. A little disappointing but did not spoil the morning. Coffee and cakes were good.

the place was welcoming and warm on this wet day, food very good, service friendly and helpful

I and a friend enjoyed a lovely lunch at Food Republic. Between us we had an excellent hearty soup and a Vietnamese slaw salad with perfectly poached chicken, followed by coffees.

Love that I can book a table online and the food and service never disappoint. Great meeting place!

Very friendly staff, good choice of interesting meals and great service. The food is well priced and the service was very quick. When we come to Blackburn your restaurant is the one we come too. We also appreciate that we have always been able to get parking.

Food and service was great! Waitress was also excellent. Fabulous!!

As usual, very efficient and friendly service. Food was up to usuual very good standard.

delicious food, attentive and friendly service. Thank you very much.

Delicious food. Lovely, friendly staff. Did their best to take orders and deliver food quickly but we did go at an extremely busy time so it was a little slower than usual. My experiences at The Food Republic are always excellent.
