inconsistent breakfastnoisy cafe
The location was good. The waterfront was a short walk. breakfast was fine, but it was inconsistent. Buffet items often ran out. crockery was not always available, and ordering food sometimes took too long. the cafe felt noisy because it faces a road with a curb, and that bothered me a little. The noise was constant.
