    We found them so accommodating after I accident booked the wrong restaurant on open table and had to get across town by taxi, when we got there the other restaurant had called ahead to let them know what we’d done and they were so nice and made us feel at ease. Well worth the wait as the food was amazing

    Hi Julie, Thanks so much for sharing this! We're really glad it all worked out in the end—and no worries at all about the mix-up. Huge credit to the other restaurant for giving us a heads-up too! It was a pleasure having you, and we're so happy you enjoyed the food. Hope to see you again sometime (hopefully without the taxi dash next time! Loudons Team

    An amazing place for breakfast. They have a very delicious food. We had a plate called lahsa its really good. We also ate french brioche toast and wild mushrooms. All are more than good I can’t describe it. Highly recommended.

    I would have scored my experience higher if there had been no dogs allowed. Unfortunately I watched a dog put its paws on the table which is exceptionally unhygienic.
    Loudons New WaverleyResponded on 27 May 2025
    Hi Angela Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience was affected by the presence of dogs. We understand that not everyone is comfortable with animals in dining spaces, especially when hygiene is a concern. While we do aim to be a dog-friendly venue, we also expect pet owners to follow appropriate behaviour guidelines. We'll be sure to review our policies and remind guests of proper etiquette to ensure a comfortable environment for everyone. We truly appreciate your input and hope to welcome you back for a more enjoyable visit in the future. Loudon team

    Absolutely loved brunch at Loudons! Food was delicious, service was fantastic, and drinks were great as well. Their Mediterranean avocado toast was phenomenal pared with a Bellini. Highly recommend if you need a quick bite before wandering around the city or if you want a leisurely brunch on a Saturday afternoon. Perfectly located and quite easy to walk to from most places in old town; may be a bit of a hike if you’re further in new town, but probably no more than 20 or so mins.

    Hi Briana, Thank you so much for the amazing feedback! We're absolutely delighted to hear you enjoyed your brunch experience at Loudons—from the Mediterranean avocado toast and Bellini to the service and atmosphere. It's great to know our location worked well for your city adventures too. We really appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome you back soon—whether it’s for a quick bite or a relaxed weekend brunch! Loudons team
