What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Selu Garden Cafe offers a mixed dining experience. While many praise the delicious made-to-order omelets and the scenic creek views, some reviews point to issues with buffet quality, high prices, and inconsistent service, particularly during busy holiday events. The atmosphere can range from pleasant to disappointing depending on seating location and staff attentiveness.
"Thanksgiving Day brunch was DELICIOUS!! They had an omelet station and breakfast items, a huge charcuterie spread and a full Thanksgiving menu with turkey, ham and all the traditional sides and desserts. Will definitely be back for breakfast!"

"Overall a great place. Don was a great waiter. Honestly, the BLT had way too much bacon but I am sure others love that. I took most of it home for the dog. Hubby had breakfast and he said it was a decent breakfast. We sat in the back with a great view of the creek. Would recommend trying this cafe"

"I made a reservation for 7am but there wasn't a wait time either way yet. The food and service were great. Our server refilled our coffee and checked on us to make sure we were all good. We ordered the Soco Omelette with a biscuit and fruit. The biscuit was so fluffy and soft. Also ordered the pancake stack which was alright. Due to unforeseen circumstances the buffet was closed so I hope next time it's open for us to try."
