ivy & lola's kitchen & bar

my partner and i decided we would go out for one lastbreakfastbefore we had to fly back home. we stumbled along this place on the water front and thought it looked good.
we ordered a orange juice and coffee. the oj was $5 some and 90% ice. the coffee was okay definelty not the best i've had.
we also ordered some food. eggs bene with bacon and chicken and waffles. the eggs bene was average to say the least. the toast and bacon was clearly over cooked. the toast was black, the bacon was crunchy just like crackle. i was surprised the chef served it up to be honest.
the chicken and waffles were average. the waffles were not 'crunchy' they were soft. the bacon was the same as the eggs bene bacon crunchy. the chicken had no flavour at all. the jalapeno chutney was nice and had a good kick.
we were served water but my cup was dirty and the water had floaties in it!
pretty disappointed considering the bill was $50 something and the food was average.

bigbreakfastis fantastic and the taste was on the money . service is friendly and the spot is right by the waterfront. great spot for some great food.

we randomly picked this restaurant forbreakfastsince we were in the area. we loved the interior of this restaurant. and the food was top notch too. we had thebreakfastspecial that morning and it was one of the best bfast we had while we were in qtown. i would definitely recommend this place to my friends and family

good views and interesting foods - most of the menu is unusual combobreakfastand lunch meals. i had eggs with good salmon and a variety of vegetable stuff. very good. coffee was good. staff were the usual backpackers and could disappear occasionally.

went forbreakfastand had the smoked fish with bubble and squeak. must be one of the best breakfasts i've ever had. coffee was fantastic and awesome service. what more can you ask for on a beautiful queenstown morning???!!!

we went here forbreakfastthis morning as we both wanted a more substantialbreakfastthan we had had. the service was nice but quite slow, took awhile to have our order taken etc despite it being quite. i had the pancake stack with a hash brown side and my friend had their big breakfast. the food was nice but nothing special and the coffee was a bit burnt. probably wouldn't come back as i would try other places first.
