Fahrenheit Cafe - East Gosford, New South Wales

My friend and I attended Mothers' Day, so we expected a crowd. The cafe is small but turns out meals from its tiny kitchen at a phenomenal rate!The staff were hard-pressed on the day, but very accommodating. Unfortunately we waited almost an hour for our meals, which arrived a little colder than we expected .
That said, the food was well made, well presented, and very tasty. The coffee was excellent.
I will return, but on a quieter day.

Extremely disappointed. Traveled from Sydney and found this cafe on Google with high review and all kinds of compliments. However the reality was- Water or napkins was not offered until we asked after 20mins wait. Waited 45 minutes after order to receive the first dish. Checked with waitress to see how long to wait a couple of times and was told that should take 30 minutes since public holiday. However, my friend waited over 50mins. Was not informed of the waiting time at first or otherwise would reconsider. Air-conditioning was not on for a full room on a hot day with no fresh air. Foods okay but extremely disappointed with the service they provided. Not recommended.

Been to Fahrenheit several times but not for a couple of years. We've always thought it above average but today's visit was a real let down.

1. Counter service with no table numbers. Generally cafes with counter service give you a table number to display on your table. A tried and true system. Fahrenheit does not do this. So every 2 or 3 minutes you have a server come to your table and ask if you've ordered the items they have in their hand. They go from table to table pestering you until they find the correct table.
2. Latte was very poor. And a decent amount of it was in the saucer, probably due to the waiter going table to table to find the lucky recipient. Person at the table next to us ordered a large cap, took a few sips and left. If I wasn't so in need of a caffeine hit I'd have done the same.
3. Food was okay. Egg was so undercooked the yolk and some of the egg white spent the meal as a sticky pool at the bottom of the plate, meaning I had to hold the roll in my hand the entire time because putting it down would have meant drowning it in half cooked egg yolk. The sauce I asked for on my roll was not present. No salt and pepper was on the table and none was offered. Hashbrowns were the square frozen ones found in supermarkets
4. Service. Poor. Servers come out with food going table to table to offload it and then walk in empty handed despite passing tables that oviously needed to be cleared. In 30 minutes not one table was wiped down after they were eventually cleared. And seriously, when taking an order please LISTEN.
"I'd like a small latte".
"sure, what size?".
"small".
"Ok, so one small cap"........
"ARGH!!!!"

For a cafe that frequently makes the list of "best cafes on central coast" this was a very poor showing. With so many excellent cafes nearby I doubt we'll be back.

We were in the area this morning looking for a brunch spot and stumbled upon this place. Great food and coffee was discovered. The house baked beans are amazing. The only fault was the eggs being slightly overdone for poached (I love the ooze). The food was fantastic though and if we come through again on our travels, we'll definitely be back to try more!

Great cafe experience this morning. Staff acknowledged us straight away and informed us about how to order and seating options. The coffee was great and the food was unreal. Had the waffle - fried chicken stack and it was delicious. The bench in the sun was glorious.
Would recommend 👌🏼

Just off the main drags and on a sunny day a good place for a catch up or waste some time. Coffee was made very well though not the best taste. Burgers I believe is their strength so more focus on giving them some ooomph would make this place greater. Lovely staff.

The ambience was nice and the place was packed when we arrived. Staff were okay and understandably busy, but not very attentive. The wait for food was long, which made sense given the crowd however we weren’t offered water at all and it felt a bit uncomfortable asking for it since it was so busy.

The affogato and the chai latte was fine- though it’s hard to get those wrong. We tried the chicken and veggie burgers—both were pretty bland. The chicken was stiff instead of crunchy, and the veggie burger lacked flavor, just felt like bread and haloumi thrown together. Fries were decent, but overall the experience was underwhelming, especially considering the rating this place has and the wait time for the food.
