Went to this cafe with friends and enjoyed it immensely. The service was fast and friendly, food was lovely and fresh, servings are generous, we were very happy with everything. It's one of the best cafe's in the Dural area, we will be going back.

I ordered the chicken, waited 1hour 15 minutes, it was cold, potatoes not fully cooked and salad tasted days old, a bland unappealing meal. Understaffed. Terribly loud environment, worse parking. It was very overpriced. I definitely would not recommend to anyone, I had a nice breakfast here a few years ago but I would never return in its current state.

Quite expensive which would have been ok if the items listed on the menu were on the plate. Hash browns missing with no explanation. Service was dreadful. Slow and when we requested water it never came. I have been several times but this weekend may have been my last. Such a shame as the food is usually good.

I was there for breakfast for my Sister in laws bday. We waited 20 minutes for coffee, another 15 to order food, when our food finally arrived after almost an hour most orders were wrong. We asked for extra bacon and were charged $8 for a few pieces and some of us didn't even get it. When we asked for it took a further 20 minutes for it to come at which we time were finished our meals.

I needed to change my sons nappy, and even though they have high chairs there is no area to change babies and I was told to 'change him on the bathroom floor'! The attitude of staff was appalling and I observed couples leaving after being told they couldn't have a table in the sun as they needed it for the lunch rush (it as 10.30).

It was increddibly expensive for slow, rude service and wrong ordered food. I had 2 hot chcoloates and poached eggs and was charged $37, Not value for money and really the service doesn't make up for it! Will Never go there again!

I have been a weekly customer at this cafe for over twelve months now but after today I think no more. After making a booking for 5 for breakfast 1 of our party decided not to come. The staff were advised and proceeded to tell us that we would have to move tables as they had other bookings for 5 and would now need the table. Bit surprised as if our other person had turned up then I'm not sure what they were going to do then.

But, anyway, moved tables to not as nice position only to discover they then proceeded to sit another group of 4 at our original table. Some might think minor but just goes to show they are not prepared to look after their regulars and this staff member is quite rude most times we attend but have put up with it due to the food. To top it off waited 20 minutes for first coffee which was burnt and never offered water at any stage.

Let me start with the positive. The food is great here which is what used to keep bringing me back to this cafe in Dural. The breakfast and lunch is always consistently good and they are generous servings. Hats off to the chefs!

Now with the negative. The service here is quite poor! even when the cafe is quiet you can be waiting up to 10-15 minutes to receive a coffee or get served. The staff are quite rude and when you ask for simple things like water for the table the staff come across as it is a big task to get anything for you.

I guess the questions is, is great food worth it when there is poor service?

Amazing food and the serves are generous. Great place for a girls lunch out. Don't leave without having dessert, especially the Persian Love cake. As mentioned by other people, the car parking situation is the only let down but it doesn't matter, because the food certainly makes up for it.

A lovely cafe, but parking is a huge problem. Few spots at entrance, large space reserved for nursery customers only. No one is ever at the nursery (not much of quality there) so there's always a big space there. Cafe overflow is in outer Siberia down a loose gravel driveway (choose shoes carefully).

Anyway, food is always lovely. Favorites are the fetta fritters with king prawns and salad, salmon nicoise salad, and specials are good, esp the lamb shank, but they are not available all the time. Desserts are usually nice, coffee good. Shall return, open for dinner soon too!

Revisited and disappointed this time. Entree was ordered but wait staff arrived with the main, entree forgotten. Always a risk when order taken by memory I suppose. Ordered the prawns and fritters for a main again. Sadly only received 3 small prawns, nowhere near kings. Outrageous really, for a main dish. Husband was happy with prawn linguini (similar price, he got 7 prawns).

Anyway, with the entree forgotten, thought we'd order desserts, but the only one that sounded interesting was sold out. Had coffee, left hungry. Also, no water arrived for our table, yet all others seemed to be given it. Had to ask when ordering dessert. Don't think we'll be back.

I truly love Wild Pear Café, an outstanding café within the Hills District of Sydney. The meals are always well prepared and having a husband who loves his food, it’s what we look for when dining out for Brunch or Lunch. The staff are fantastic, displaying lovely customer service at all times, Thank you!

Great food and service, nothing was a trouble for the staff from finding a high chair to bringing the food and drinks out at different times as requested. Parking is a bit troublesome if you cant get a park out front and aren't able/willing to walk a gravel path from the back car park. Generous serve for the price.
