Reviews of Essence Cafe & Bar (Restaurant)
c.
The till is up some stairs so not easy to get to . Reasonable range of choices to choose from for dinner. My husband was pleased to be able to habe some venison. He said it was cooked well. Just how he likes it.
K.
Fabulous food, 7 superb meals, couldn't fault. Table service was good but not very friendly ,pretty sure she wasn't smiling under her mask. Will definitely go back for the food and hope everyone's having a better day next time.😁
C.
Called in for an easy meal. Got the steak eggs and chips. Huge portions and cooked to perfection. The wait staff were awesome and the chef asked if we wanted mushroom sauce with our meals. The sauce was killer tasty. Happy to highly recommend this place.
S.
Wow, brunch has not been so easy, the sevice was great, our waitress was onto it with drinks first while food was prepared. It was quiet busy and food flowed out of the Kitchen almost constantly. Our meals were fantastic and the bread was so not store brought like the last 2 star writen reveiw. I think that person had issues as this place was outstanding. Just dont be that kind of person and tip the staff because you had a great meal and then leave a bad reveiw... these guys are totally worth it.
j.
Very nice food and plenty of it. Bread selection was too large for two, but gave it a good fight lol. Would definitely go back.
B.
10/10 best place to eat in feilding, Poppy is a star waitress and makes the best coffee. Will return time and time again.
P.
Lovely food !! Highly recommended. I had this amazing Venison burger!! Delicious
S.
Just the best cafe in Feilding. Menu changes and they're delicious, kids meals are good sizes. Wide range of options
L.
Wonderful experience at Essence. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable, food was delivered quickly, and it was hot and delicious. Its a shame they are not open on Mondays or I would be back for brunch before heading for home.
J.
Bloody delish! Very full when we left and amazing flavours.
M.
Great for Sunday breakfast. I had the hashbrown stack...more like a tower it was so big! Very yummy.
D.
Great food, delicious cocktails, polite and friendly service. 😋 :) 🤤🍔
C.
Always great food here. For the 1st time though, we were placed next to a very noisy table. We asked if we could be moved but to no avail. I don't have a problem with people having fun as I am not the anti fun police. But.... when I can't even here my partner or other family members talk because another table is soooo loud???
Host responsibility.. 100%
Was not a pleasurable experience. When you pay good money to eat out, and you are trying to celebrate a family occasion. The experience is ruined when you are having to sit next to a group of loud mouths.
Staff could have/should have sorted.
J.
Attentive interested staff. Clean and pleasant surroundings. Lovely meal, good choice on the menu. Pork was so tender. Looking forward to a return visit winter meal when the fire is lit.
C.
We enjoyed a very delicious lunch at Essence, we both ordered Seafood Chowder & Feijoa & Apple Crumble for dessert..... came with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. We highly recommend the food and the waiter was very great - he was very informative and attentive to everyone's needs. We hadn't realized Essence was open and had a lunchtime menu - will definitely be recommending now! :)
J.
Excellent food, wonderful staff. Recommend this Cafe.
K.
Awesome service. We booked a table for 6 for my elderly fathers birthday at very short notice on Sunday. The wait staff read the people at our table really well and provided an exceptional experience. The food was sterling. Will definitely book Essence again. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
N.
A great place to eat with a large group. Very attentive waiter with a great manner and some good banter. Food was excellent and tasty and well presented. They were fairly busy but food came in a timely fashion. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Fielding. Cheers
M.
I love essence. I come here quite often, we get the fish of the day with chips and salad every time. The service is so good as well, our server was hilarious. Nice drinks as well. My favourite restaurant in Feilding!!
H.
I’m a regular. Lovely staff with amazing food and coffee. Always feel so welcome. Eggs bene is to die for
C.

Great food, great customer service. Even though they were fully booked they still managed to squeeze us in!
A.
The tagliatella was awesome, however I still think it is a bit expensive.
T.
Excellent cafe\restaurant. Great relaxed atmosphere, professional staff, great food, not overly priced.
Deserving of 5 star rating.
L.
I have to say, I have had great meals in other places in Feilding, but this place blew the others out of the water, we had the beef and it was mouth watering, will be booking a table shortly, the staff where lovely, never tasted such wonderful food, my mouth is still watering, thank you to an excellent chef and staff.
K.
Excellent food and service loved the venison open sandwich
S.
Good kids meals and they made colouring pencils available so they had a little entertainment while they waited. I had the Buddha Bowl which was delicious! Friendly staff that happily made a tiny sundae for the youngest when she was regretting her decision to turn down a full sundae. Pretty pricey all up but everyone was full and happy so no regrets.
T.
Nice atmosphere, great fish of the day. The veggie combo was tasty but, alas, not hot enough. Timing perhaps a little off. But worth a visit certainly.
S.
Great service here (Lachlan), even tho a large table of 12 diners talking and moving seats. Food presentation and delivery very good, with a relaxed atmosphere.
G.
Always yummy food and
Great service
D.
Service okay but a few smiles with our food would have been pleasant . Toddler in our group was accepted and treated very well. Food was well prepared and reasonably priced. Only down was the rather uncomfortable chair.
M.
Fantastic lunch. Excellent service. Food is delicious, reasonably priced and great portion sizes. Coffee is very very good too
A.
Nice food, great seafood chowder and big variety of food. However I had to wait a LONG time for the service to come. The waiter said he would serve us soon, but he served another table that came AFTER us.
S.
Great chowder. Pity some staff in aprons sitting outside in full view vaping
B.
Food was good, coffee was ok but a bit cold. We have 2 different staff 1 was rude and a bit passively aggressive the other was fantastic
G.
Great service lovely food.
S.
What a great night. Food was awesome and the entire table enjoyed each and every meal. Mains and desserts. Meals all came out together and in a very short time frame, and it was a busy night too. 11 of us at our table alone.
Great service, great food, and great staff. Highly recommended.
Keep up the great work guys.
j.
