Shingle Inn

Always drop in when I visit Tuggerah. Cordial staff, comfortable chairs and great fruit cake and coffee 🙂👍🏻

Extremely nice coffee and very friendly staff. They display a great example of customer service. The prices are reasonable. The store was very clean.

Had bacon poached eggs mushrooms onion and toast good price great food excellent service absolutely no complaints thank you girls

Friendly. . . Great Food. . . Price. . . Great spot if you've got kids as it's right next to the play spot (for kids)

Delicious coffee

I ordered an all day big breakfast and a chocolate frappe. The service was great and both the food and drink were delicious and very reasonably priced compared to other cafes around. The only con for me is the location which is fantastic if you have kids because it's right next to a play area but if you are looking for a quiet place for lunch this isn't the place to go.

Had a wonderful coffee made by Sara, I think that was her name.

I really don't like doing negative reviews, but this place's food is sub par. The only reason I gave any stars at all is because the staff were very pleasant. Eggs Benedict was cold, eggs were so underdone that there was egg snot on top. They couldn't do waffles, so we got Canadian pancakes instead. The pancakes were made from the cheap pancake shake batter you can by at Coles. $4.60 for a 300ml Speing Valley orange juice. Ordered 5 drinks, one we had to get in a take away cup because by the time they got around to making it (they were waiting for a fresh glass), the rest of us had eaten and were ready to go. I'd have been extremely happy with our experience if I'd have paid $50-60 for two adults and two teenagers to have brunch, instead I feel I've just wasted $110.

Will not be returning.

Update:
Thank you for your reply, Kathy from Head office. I tried calling the number for head office on your website, but only got a voicemail. If rather not post my mobile number here, so maybe you could give me a number I can reach you on, I'd be glad to give any further feedback.

2 stars 🌟 and only because the staff was great...well the girls anyway.
Big breakfast ordered but since my daughter is 20 and not 10 to call this a BIG breakfast is a stretch. Mushrooms & small poached eggs over cooked by the un-netted cook. Pancakes come with frozen berries.
If you have kids, grab a booth & a passable coffee....definitely not for the foodie

Our food was incredibly disappointing. We were missing ingredients that were listed on the menu and when we asked for the missing items we were asked to pay for it. The food was very inconsistent. Both ourselves and friends ordered a bowl of chips each. Our bowls were completely different sizes and we both paid the same amount. The sliders are pictured with burger buns yet ours came out with small cut out slices of bread, it looked like an egg ring was used to cut out a slice of bread.
We paid over $70 for an incredibly disappointing meal. We won't be returning.

I’ve been here a few times and ha a tad fe it coffee and service. Last week on Christmas Eve though, I got a caramel latte- an Easy order. It was so terrible it was t even drinkable.

However because it was also hot I didn’t get to try it until I got into my car. The flavour of the coffee suggested that they had burned the coffee and I don’t know what about the milk but it was undrinkable. Very sad.

The lady at the counter wasn’t happy to be there. She didn’t even ask how I wanted my eggs which I thought the cook would correct . I ordered two eggs toast and avocado. I got one cold fried egg on cold toast and avocado spread like butter. They did replace it with new poached eggs but they were all spilt and half missing. Not something worth $16
My mums breakfast wrap was so soggy it fell apart. Neither meals cafe worthy.

Ordered a banana bliss, waited, watched a man collect it drink out of it, come back and say that’s not mine. The young kids serving there put it aside, then when the other drink was ready they served me the banana bliss that the guy had just drunk out of, I said “I’m sorry can you make me another as I just watched another guy drink out of that one the young guy says “how about I just change the straw?” 🙄 I said no thank you, I’d like another so they reluctantly made another. Wow, they really have no concept of customer service and how straws work especially in covid times.

Extremely disappointing and expensive. Ordered smashed avocado and feta on sourdough. For $15.50, I received a smear of avocado and 3 crumbles of feta on 2 less than fresh sourdough slices. When I queried the very small amount compared to picture given on menu, comment was "It doesn't have to be like that, just a guide." Oh, wow, such concern over customers ' concerns. Never again! Don't waste your money or time.

Ordered smashed avo, very disappointed when it came out it looked very unappealing, only 1 egg with 2 slices of toast? Menu said it came with Feta ours didn’t. Overcharged for what we received. Would not come back in a hurry.

Will I get shingles at the shingle inn??
Concerned patron, after eating here half an hour later I was very unwell horrible food not good when driving to Sydney on the pacific hwy

Smashed Avocado was really poor. Barely toasted bread, thinly spread avocado and could count the crumble of feta on my fingers. Money wasted.

Took her 20 mins to get one coffee & sausage roll. Not friendly lady either. Probably because very busy and tired ? :(

meals are very expensive for a cafe,even got order mixed up and food over cooked. 2 adults 1 child $72
