The Vintage Cafe has an interesting fusion of historical and modern decor offering a casual laid back atmosphere with good quality food at affordable prices. Only fresh produce is used with emphasis on local Australian seafood, wines, local and imported cheeses. The wine & beer list offers great quality, variety and value for money. A lot of creativity is found in the various dishes, providing a nice contrast between Spanish, Portuguese and Mediterranean food. Served all day, the traditional breakfast portion of the menu offers the Full Vintage Breakfast deal, with bacon, Chorizo, eggs to any taste and toast. For those with a big appetite, the Mediterranean Omelette filled with capsicum, tomato, Spanish onion, mushrooms, herbs and fetta cheese has plenty to get you going.
Lunch is filled with options including fresh made to order salads, pizzas, sandw, steaks.Thu to Sat nights, selection of “Petisco” plates or tasty bites served in traditional clay dishes.
What can be more romantic than the delightful sounds of live Bossa Nova & Jazz which can be heard Thu,Fri, Sat & Sun.
If you are looking for somewhere special, private and a local haven, take a stroll to The Vintage Cafe.

I don't agree with your last review. We had a fantastic time the service was the best we have had in Australia. The food was beautiful and our bill was only $60 including wine. The food was excellent, we have been searching for a good Tapas restaurant for a long time in Sydney and this is real food, good ingredients cooked well.

Would not come here again due to below reasons. Why has this got a 'heart' listed next to it? Very hard to be romantic or intimate place when the seating is so close you are practically sitting on top of the next customer. Waitress does not have a clue and very hard to understand. When I booked, asked if it was BYO, she said yes, then found out it wasn't. She couldn't explain the menu?
Food was over priced. $16 for a pizza the size of a small dinner plate! By the time the food came, we were starving! and it came all at once so didn't even have room on the table. At least they could have brought the bread out first for something to munch on! This place has the potential to be really nice if it was managed effectively.

Took a group of 14 people here after a ghost tour of the rocks. I gave the kitchen my order a week in advance helping the night run much smoother. Everything was great including the wonderful service. I would eat here again.

Loved the meatballs and lemon-chicken special! and the bossa live music was world-class, one voice and guitar filling the air, rather unusual for Sydney.

If you want a great time give this place a look in. The time I have been here, the nights were great with awesome music live. The tapas menu is very good, and the service is great.

I went to this cafe with a friend while visiting Sidney and was thrilled with the quality of the food and the friendliness of the waiter/owner who served us. We enjoyed listening to the soft music sung live right next to us. This was the most enjoyable meal I had during our stay. I was only disappointed later when I found I did not have time to return as they only serve food during the day and three evenings a week. More hours please! The pizza was delicious, the stuffed pastries different and tasty, and the prices reasonable.

I went to the Vintage Cafe for a friend's birthday and was very disappointed. For starters we waited 25 minutes after sitting for them to even ask us what we wanted to drink, after we were basically ignored. Then the food was pretty average with some of the mixes of food served not making any sense, and the bread was stale. Then they had ran out of a particular spirit that a friend drank but still had it advertised on the menu, on top of all that they had no toilet facilities! Total disappointed!!

I suspect the Vintage Cafe were caught unawares by the extensively advertised, fantastically obvious and hugely popular Aroma festival today. Surely if they'd been familiar with this event then they would have prepared adequately for the throng of people that swarmed through the doors.
We were advised when being handed menus that there would be a sizeable wait for food - around half an hour. No problem said we and ordered. One hour later we made polite enquiries after our errant meals and were told "five minutes". Ten minutes later, one of our three meals was trotted out. Scrambled eggs with salmon and dill. Flaccid, rubbery, dry eggs with a splodge of salmon on the side and not a scrap of dill to be found. Tasted as good as it looked.
A further five minutes passed and out came the Vintage Big Breakfast number one. Cold bacon, pleasant chorizo and fried eggs that bounced. I couldn't pierce the yolk with a fork; instead they bent. A further five minutes and out came Vintage Big Breakfast number two. The same awful scrambled eggs, the same cold bacon, the same curiously good chorizo.
A fifteen minute spread for three cold meals after more than an hour of waiting is really unacceptable, even in the challenging circumstances brought on by the Aroma festival. The cafe wasn't filled past its capacity, it was simply full and the kitchen and wait staff were unable to keep up. The worst meal I've had in a very long time.
Our efforts at complaining were measured and polite but clearly not welcome with the member of staff we approached. The compensation was to waive $2.60 for the bouncy fried eggs and a genuine apology from the poor waitress on the till who was the least culpable participant.

I've been to this restaurant twice with no problems and no real issues. The food is always a winner and the price is also not bad. Just recently we had a great night out and we got served pretty quickly and frequently. Will definitely come here again with friends for a quick dinner and a couple of jugs of sangria!
