The staff appeared disinterested and rude when we ordered. I am coeliac and paid extra for bread, which is normal, but I was only given one slice of bread for the chilli scrambled eggs, which I wouldn’t expect to pay almost $30 for. The eggs were overcooked and did not taste good. My friends were disappointed by the other meals ordered. The kids meal didn’t even appear to be made in store, and was tiny. Highly disappointing. We were happy to leave and will not be returning.

My daughter and I ate at Bluewater Grill last night and the food was terrible. We saw lamb cutlets on the specials board and were immediately excited. We love cutlets and I was happy to pay the $40 each. Two so called cutlets were served on each plate with chips and salad. These were not lamb cutlets! Maybe they were veal but they certainly did not taste like lamb cutlets. The meat was pounded thin and covered in a horrible herb crust that was soggy due to the glutenous gravy that had been poured over the cutlets. The whole meal was so disappointing and definitely not worth the very expensive price that was paid.

Absolutely outstanding with their customer service and their staff. Nothing was a problem at all. Coffee was on point (I'm particular 🤣) the food and atmosphere were fantastic. I'm gluten intolerant and there was no hesitation in accommodating my dietary requirements.
