Review Rochedale Deli Cafe - Brisbane

Patrick Patullo
Coffee was very average, not as good as it was previously. Cafe not at all busy but service very slow! Breakfast was okay still generous servings. Staff no at all attentive, after I finished my breakfast they didn't clear my table. They seemed to be more focused on texting on iPhone. Interior very bland, has lost its old character. I won't be rushing back to this cafe! 😐

Their food is nice. But we waited between 1-1.5hrs for breakfast, everything came out staged and when we asked why, they said they were busy... Mus have missed what busy looks like. However it would have been nice to be told that before we ordered or at least been told there was that longer wait. 2 stars because the food was good. But I won't be coming back

Used to 5 star..sadly needs to lift in all areas. Coffee was very weak..long wait. Meal was poor value for money. Some staff looked poorly presented. Competition is hot so need to improve. Can do much better.

Great staff and food is priced well. Prefer to go to this cafe then another well-known (where will I meet you) , as good sized servings of quality at 2/3's the price . The ambience needs a little bit of work though.

The coffee is actually excellent. The owner Luke remembered my name even when I couldn't remember his. I look forward to heading in for a coffee stop and chat. A really good local barista.

The Deli Cafe at Rochedale shopping centre ha reopened in the last 2 weeks after the fire that went thru the shopping centre last year. Well the coffee and food was of good quality and the old patrons will find their way back to the Deli Cafe. Cheers Ken

By far the best cafe in town! The brekky is delicious and the Coffee #1. The service is however the best part.... a smile and a chat always, If your in this neck of the Woods pop in. But honestly its worth driving too.! Bon apetite

Nothing luxurious or decedant about the establishment, but the food is superb, the staff are efficient, friendly and courteous, and the di Bella coffee is just to die for. Our second visit, and hopefully not our last.

Went pass this café a few times and decided to have a cup of coffee early morning one day. Arrived there as the first customer and it seemed that the business was not yet ready to trade. However, the lady (owner?) still served me the order but not in a very good mood (understandable...). My gaze browsed around and honestly I quite liked the decoration and set-up. When the coffee came to my table, I started to understand why they are busy all time. Although there was no nice coffee art, the strength and the smoothness was worth for the trip.... Recommended.

A nice bustling place in the mornings for senior citizens, mummy dates and small work meetings from the nearby small offices.<br/><br/>Quietens down after 10. Ordered the hot chocolate from their Nutella range. Wow very decadent. Lots of nutella spread on the insides of the cup. Comes with two marshmallows.<br/><br/>Admittedly, if I just want a simple breakfast, I tend to head to G&G cafe as it's cheaper. But this cafe is nicer and had a more extensive menu. Come here now and again for catchups in the arvo over coffee and cake which they do deals for.<br/><br/>Friendly and know their regulars by name. Enough space for pram inside, high chairs available, relatively clean change table in the bathrooms outside in the mall (unlocked).

This is mine and my boyfriends go-to breakfast place. I always get the Mediterranean Breakfast, one of their vegetarian options. Not too expensive and soooo good. My boyfriend always gets their Steak Sandwich, which is huge, and comes with a side of chips. Great service and they always serve a great cup of coffee. Great, no fuss, atmosphere. Great way to start a day =)

We arrived just after 8:30 for breakfast. Have now been waiting for an hour for our food to arrive. As per other reviews, if we hadn't prepaid we would have been out of here and when we asked how long the food would be we were told it was being served up now.....that was 15 mins ago. Won't come here again, I could have cooked it, served it and cleaned the dishes in under 30 mins!

This cafe is one of the better ones in the area, however, compared to cafes closer to the city it's average. The coffee was okay and the food was okay - just nothing special. Service was a little slow, although they did apologise for the wait. I would go back again but only if I wanted to eat a bit closer to home.

Love to come here for breakfast and a sip of coffee to start the day. Coffee quality can match the expensive ones I get in the city, while the breakfast is not only done well but also very affordable! Absolutely great place to have breakfast whenever I'm in the area.

So delicious! I had the steak burger and it was out of this world. So cheap too. Definitely will come back.

Superb Mediterranean brekky.

Eat here!. I just had the best eggs Benedict I've ever had in my life, only a half serve which is quite a generous serve or food. But it was amazing!!

Popular cafe. Great wholesome food cooked with love. Generous portions, some are huge. The salads are really good too. It needs to improve the decor
Chris Knight
Nothing special. I came here after reading positive reviews and my first experience was ok. I had the omlette which was fine but a bit pricey for what it was. I returned another day and had eggs and bacon. This time was disappointed, both the toast and bacon was burnt and inedible. Grilled tomato was far too oily and practically left the entire meal untouched. The meal should not have been served.

Waiting for an hour for breakfast to arrive. Very popular most likely cause everyone is waiting. Food looks good but really need to improve on timely customer service.
Claudia Ng
Good little place & reasonably priced. Can get busy very quick then the service really slows down.

Superb!. Great little café, only downfall is that it can get quite busy at times.
Jacob Caric

Thank you rochedale deli cafe for the wonderful valentines day dinner. Me and my husband loved the atmosphere and the great food and service (as per usual).

Need a business lesson. I would like to write a review about this cafe but I was unable to order a coffee and cake for myself and my wife because after we walked in at 3:30 pm we were told that the tables were in lockdown for their Valentine customers. We went and did some shopping instead and on our way back to the car, some 45 minutes later, I noticed that the place was still empty except for the little reserved signs on all of the tables. I hope those reserve signs pay well because they surely missed out on a lot of casual Friday afternoon cafe traffic and possibly, as in our case, future custom. A lesson or a book on good business practice might be in order. They certainly had lots of time this afternoon to read one.

I've been coming to this cafe for 5 years now and not once have i been disappointed with the quality for the food and the service. me and my wife always bring our families along with us and they also love the food and coffee. i dont know what the bad comments bellow me are about, the staff are friendly and always have time to make you comfortable and the food, theres nothing more to say but WONDERFULL!!
Jasmina S
Absolutly amazing! Ive been comeing ever since they have opended and i have never been dissapointed. The staff are extremely friendly and well presented. The food is obviously fresh quality. You can tell by the taste. My favourite is the cevapi! And everything else!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are after a suburban breakfast hit, this place will suffice if you like a good breakfast, average to poor coffee and limited service. No obvious system for ordering. Do you sit and wait, do you go in and order, at which counter? If you are waiting in the 'wrong spot', then don't expect anyone to tell you. Obviously under staffed, 'I can get you water when I have a chance to.' Tables not wiped, previous cups and plates sit there waiting to be taken away. Very popular, plenty of customers, so maybe I'm being too harsh? The food is ok but the coffee was the final straw. When we finished our meal, a waiter did arrive to clear up. No one asked if the food was ok.

Fantastic Cevapi! (Probably the nicest out of Croatia and Bosnia itself) only problem it takes FOREVER for them to bring them out!. I have been here many times and each time I have to wait over 40min!!...I mean, are they making them on the spot?. Apart from that good hearty food.

Was quite suprised to find this charming little cafe in the heart of Rochdale as the coffee was di bella & of course good. I noticed they do a great selection of cakes too to have with the coffee for $8.50. Also looks like they do a veg brekky with haloumi which would love to try if the reviews on here about the fresh produce are anything to go by

Best hotdogs ever.

Usually love this place... However we always order steak burgers to take away, and usually the meat is delicious and tender. Last time (last night) it was really tough and gristly. Big chunks of gristle all the way through, definitely not the rib fillet we were used to. The big breakfast is ok, the sausage is excellent.

Great coffee, food is authentic mediterrainen and always top quality. Love this place for all meals of the day. And they always have a coffee and cake special!

Best kept secret this side of town. I'm almost reluctant to share how much I love this place in case it gets even busier!<br/><br/>The food and coffee here are simply above average. I've eaten most things from the menu and only been disappointed once, on a particularly busy Sunday morning when we waited ages for our breakfasts to arrive.<br/><br/>Apart from that one off (a year ago), this place never fails to impress. The quality of ingredients obviously has an impact - everything is fresh, ripe and tasty. Best of all, you can buy from the deli and take stuff home.<br/><br/>The only thing I've not tried is dessert, although it seems pretty popular with lots of patrons going for the coffee & cake deal during the day.<br/><br/>Try the Mediterranean open slice for something really special, but the steak burger is delicious too (great quality steak, not fatty, and oh so tender) and the sandwiches are always top quality. <br/><br/>The coffee (Di Bella) is perfect - never burned, ideal temperature...they obviously know what they're doing.<br/><br/>I can't recommend this place enough!
