   We arrived a half hour before Optus gates opened. There was no instruction from the restaurant that the gates were closed. After walking almost the perimeter we were advised that only Gate C was open early.. We are not young. Very hot weather. It would have been nice to have been given this information in advance.

   I absolutely love City View Cafe but today’s experience could have been better. The menu is getting smaller and even more expensive for what you get. Not much variety like there use to be. The most disappointing items on the menu are the deserts. $16.50 for a ‘lava cake’ was extortion. I know it’s the footy but…… Optus Stadium management needs to review the menu at City View Cafe and make some changes. The venue is superb and staff are excellent.

   City View is a favourite for drop in coffee with friends or a simple meal. Service is always friendly.

   Great game day experience before the game. Without doubt the best view over the Swan River to the City. Good food although now it’s starting to get a little pricey. Staff and service is first rate. Orders are delivered to your table quickly. Yes I do recommend City View Café.

   I am extremely disappointed with the service during our recent visit. We arrived at 1:50 PM and did not receive our food until 2:40 PM—an unacceptable wait time. Despite following up and clearly stating that we had a game to attend at 3:10 PM, the delay meant we were unable to eat and reach our seats on time. This level of service is completely unacceptable. Not only did it ruin our dining experience, but it also disrupted our plans. I expect a response explaining how such delays are being addressed to prevent this from happening to other customers.

   Great view from the restaurant. Menu not extensive but our fish and chip meals were very nice and quite large. Side salad was very fresh too. Meals served to tables around us looked delicious. Drinks menu was good. Very, very good service. We’ll try to make this our first stop before each game.

   We had lunch after an Optus Stadium tour. It was a set menu, my husband & I were able to find something we liked even though the set menu wasn't extensive. It also came with a decent choice of drinks, hot or cold.

   Been coming to the pre-eagle's match buffets now for many years now. First for the year (Rd1) and disappointed that table service is no longer available for drinks. Drinks must be ordered now from the bar or from the bar code on the table. This also meant having to pay for drinks (Multiple transactions) at each order rather than all in one transaction at the end of the meal. All in all, a good location with a great meal with good staff. But at the price the small amount of service that was required to get drinks and have 1 transaction would be appreciated again, if possible, please. Thank you

    Overall it was ok but two of the 3 items out group of 3 ordered were not available despite it being an “ all day” menu. This meant we had to choose items with egg even though one of our party doesn’t eat eggs. Off you take out the items with eggs and 2 other items from the menu, it is a bit limited. The service and coffee were both excellent.
