40 min wait for a steak and chips? No sauces and no seasoning on the meat should have checked the reviews they are actually telling the truth for once…

Truly disgusting food & service. Only went because Peggy Jean was fully booked. Antipodea is the polar opposite of Peggy Jean. Avoid at all costs.

The ambiance and decor are great, with a contemporary yet nostalgic feel for any Australian. The menu is varied and interesting but honestly I was quite disappointed with the food itself. The pide was bland, served as an uninteresting wrap, nothing like delicious pides (usually a pointy pizza like form) in Australia. The meal was over priced and ultimately not satisfying, and no pizzas served on the day of the visit. It was the service however that let the place down most, we were not greeted warmly by the manager, we had to ask repeatedly for table service, and as ever when staff take orders without writing anything down there is the concern that something will be forgotten, which indeed happened so we had to wait quite a while for one person’s dish and by the time it arrived the others had finished eating. We left feeling dissatisfied, like we had paid too much for poor service and disappointing food, so I don’t think we’ll be returning. If you’re just going for coffee then yes it’s a nice atmosphere, but I wouldn’t recommend the food - you can eat much better elsewhere for the same price.

Honestly one of the worst places I have been to in a while. We were sat by the kitchen, in a space that wasn’t even a space (despite booking), the bench didn’t even fit the table so my friend was basically hanging off the edge. We then ordered our juices… 20 mins go by. I then have to flag down a waiter to ask where they were and also order our food. Food then comes 20 mins later.. but still no juices. We ask again, and say if they come after the meal we don’t really want them. The waiter informs us that he’s sure his manager will take care of them. They come another 10 mins later after we finish eating. One isn’t even the correct order but we take it anyway. The bill then comes with the juice still on the bill. We ask to see the manager. She comes over and states ‘apparently you don’t want to pay for the juices that you drank’ I was so taken aback, having never been spoken to like this before. This service is the worst I have ever had and I will certainly not be back!

Awful experience - avoid. They are direly understaffed. When the food finally did arrive it was cold and we didn't eat it - we were concerned about the safety of the eggs. We waited 30 minutes with the inedible food sitting on our plates in full view of other diners before anyone returned.

We visited this cafe 3 times, because the menu and coffee are great, as are the cakes on the counter. The service was frustrating every time. They’re incredibly disorganised and chaotic. The counter was collecting dirty dishes for 2 hours. 2 of our orders were incomplete, and we collected our own coffees from the counter as they stood there for more than 10 mins. If you’re ok with the slow service, it’s still worth going for the atmosphere and food though.

Lovely space, food also quite good though some dishes better value than others (the slow roasted tomatoes with feta and toast is a piddly portion for the price). Service was patchy but the lady who was managing the place recognised this fact at the end of the meal. We’d return.

All in all, quite a poor experience. We were seated and served rather quickly. Our table was at the front of the restaurant, which got very cold whenever anyone entered or exited. Our food arrived 35 minutes after ordering and was very good despite two wrong dishes being delivered. It did however take 45 minutes after ordering for 2 coffees, a tea and an orange juice to arrive. This is ridiculous. We were not the only table to experience problems, with another table receiving incorrect food and another two receiving food before their drinks. This was our third time at Antipodea, and whilst the food is great, the service has always been poor and has gotten worse.

I have been to Antipodea a few of times now and whilst it was good in the beginning it has unfortunately gone downhill very rapidly. The service is poor, the food quality is poor whilst the prices are high and the biggest red flag for me is they can’t make fried eggs, which really makes me question what sort of state they receive their eggs in that they can only poach or scramble them. On our most recent visit today, the lady (blonde hair, white shirt) by the door made it clear that we were inconveniencing her by asking her for a table and kept us waiting for such a long time that we nearly walked out (with hindsight, we wish we had). The chicken thigh burger was exceptionally dry (tasted like it had been cooked before then heated up) and the drinks prices for the non-alcoholic drinks are extortionate. £6 for a warm juice. To be fair the chips were good and were the only item we would reorder. Save yourself a lot of money and go somewhere else in Richmond.

Just left this restaurant, never leave bad reviews but honestly this was so disappointing. Claimed to not have our booking on arrival even though half of the table had arrived and were already sat there. Didn’t have several drinks on the menu. Food was slow and arrived cold, had to be sent back, when it came back it was average at best. Asked for the dessert menu, was left for 5 minutes to choose then when they came to take our order they inform us they have 1 piece of cheesecake left and no other desserts at all?! It wasn’t even 2pm?! Why were we given the menu? Bill comes with 15% discretionary service and when I asked to remove it I got a lot of attitude about how that will have to be approved by the manager … Avoid, don’t waste your time and money. So many other places in Richmond.

I came for lunch as a group of two. I had smoked salmon on the pita bread and chorizo omelette and lamington and French fries. The smoked salmon was very good quality and French fries were fresh and nicely salted. However, the chorizo omelette was really too oily and the lamington cake was too dry. I also liked the atmosphere with plants and vegetation surrounding us in the restaurant. Overall, I had good lunch.

Followed a friends recommendation to come for brunch here at the weekend, the welcome was strange! I asked for a table for one, the lady on the door told me she had just given away the last table, even though I could see several tables available. She said they were booked. So, I went away for an hour and came back to find those tables still vacant. I thought maybe they didn't want my custom as a solo person taking up a table for two, so I asked for a spot at the bar if they could please squeeze me in. The same lady said "we don't allow seating at the bar at the weekend, but a large table just left sooner than expected so we can sit you in the back". I then sat and had a lovely meal at the back of the restaurant almost entirely alone for about 90 mins. All the time, those tables in the front of the restaurant were empty along with almost half of the tables around me. SO WEIRD and felt a bit personal they just didn't want me to have a nice table for some reason?! The food was really good, service good (a bit slow but I wasn't in a rush), coffee good, but the lady on the door really let them down.

Good food but poor service. Visited for a weekend brunch, on arrival we had to wait a substantial amount of time before been served, this set the tone of the meal, with us having to wait a considerable amount of time for our drinks and food. The food was nice however the service let the experience down. The seating was also quite cramped and a few times throughout (and whilst we were eating) we were asked to move our table which is poor etiquette. For the cost of the food the service was below expected standards.

Visited for lunch with my friend. Both ordered the prawn benedict special. It was nice but for £16 expected a larger portion, more prawns and hollandaise sauce... also pricing should have been clear from the start.

The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and the staff were really friendly and helpful, however the food was awful. We ordered 8 different dishes and they were all bland, overpriced and super disappointing. We had to send the burrata back as they served one cut in half and we thought it was a mistake, it turns out for some reason the chef thinks changing £6.50 for half a burrata (which the whole point is that it is whole to cut into the creamy inside and when halved had become extremely dry) was somehow a good idea. If food flavour and value for money aren't a concern then the decor, ambiance and wait staff make this a really nice place to go. Strongly recommend avoiding if you're looking for good food sadly.

The surprise hero here was the roasted edamame. It was the strong starter to the evening. The chorizo scallops were delicious but very small. The crab and hake fish cake was good but more of a potato croquette. Quite delicious, but not what expected. The Indian chicken and slaw, on the other hand, was exactly as expected and very good. The duck chips were wonderful. Of course. The banoffee was light and delicious. The blueberry cheesecake was very slightly dry and could have used a glass of muscat as a companion. The service was very friendly and attentive. For a place we have been walking past in Richmond for months, we are finally glad we stopped in. Oh…Make a reservation! The first time we tried to “stop in,” they were full.

Went here on the 3rd August in the evening and I most say that the staff were most helpful and kind. A real credit to the Antipodea name. I was served by a marvellous waiter called Joe who really took the time to guide me through the menu and so was patience as it was my first time and had ever eaten Australian food before and was a little anxious. But that didn't matter as I had Joe! In the end I had the Pork Tomahawk and the scallops as a starter, which were delicious and my compliments go half to the chef who made it and to the waiter for recommending it. Paired with some fruity little cocktail, I do forget the name now. But it was lovely to see the staff making my drink quickly and more importantly, tastily!!! Also a massive thank you to Rebecca who greeted me and my date with the warmest of smile and took the time to explain any COVID restrictions in the restaurant and how the menu was layout. All around fabulous experience and staff, will be there soon again.

I think I might have come on a bad night. I had only been to their Kew location before and really loved it! This location was equally beautiful with real vines hanging from the ceiling and the staff was very friendly. The squid starter was quite nice and so was the burrata, though the burrata was more salad than cheese. Unfortunately it took about an hour for our mains to arrive and even though they weren't quite what we hoped, we ate them before we had to a chance to tell the wait staff as we were quite hungry. My partner got a steak he had ordered rare and it was unfortunately quite well done. I got a chicken thigh sandwich which was nice, but it was literally one chicken thigh so most bites were just bread with sauce. I feel badly that we didn't tell them about our issues before we ate as I'm sure they would have corrected them. Even though we told them about the steak after it had already been eaten, they still took it off of our bill even after we rejected their offer of a free dessert. We picked up some of their selection of Australian imports before we left. .

EDIT: Look at the disingenuous response from the owner! This picture was taken the minute my plate was put down. You can see from the picture it's just been served like that. Rather than apologise why lie? It's really disgusting to lie when your customer leaves a genuine review and make out that it's something to do with them. Unlike the Instagram pictures, the pancakes looked super ugly. Mis-shaped but also tasteless. They were lukewarm and bone dry. In fact worst I have ever had.

The food was lovely and the staff very friendly and chatty but no request was fulfilled. We came as a group of 4 for a joint birthday of 2. I called ahead twice and requested on the website for a little candle in the dessert. We always reminded the staff when we came in. To our disappointment when we got the desserts the 2 people didn't get what we were expecting for their birthday dinners. We were compensated and the two desserts were taken off the bill which was very generous of them. Also called ahead that we are going specifically for the tomahawk steaks and was assured there will be some. We got there and they had none left. The other steaks were very delicious! My friend who ordered medium got medium rare but still nice. Desserts were soo good and very generous portions all round! (Except the 'pavlova' which had a tiny crumble of meringue. Chips and veg was lovely. Would go back for food but not for special occasion which is sad because Its a lovely atmosphere.

The food is very average for the prices they charge, not Aussie style at all plus they add extra service charge to the bill. I had breakfast there & my avocado mix (avocado with crab on sourdough toast) was definitely not fresh & prepared beforehand. The overall taste was plain with strong onion present (which supposed to be pickled). Maybe one positive thing - the freshly made orange juice was ok. I would not recommend this place if you want do get quality tasty food, maybe for the drinks it's not too bad!

Super friendly and helpful staff and quite a decent coffee. Avo brunch dishes with sourdough bread were delicious, however the gluten free bread offered was a bit of a letdown.

We stumbled over this adorable and modernly quaint restaurant on a drizzling day and a lovely and very hospitable Canadian lady was able to seat us and attend to us right away. The atmosphere is casual smart with a very cosy feel. low hanging planters in the front area dangle above you giving a lovely outdoors feel but indoor. A lovely variety of seating options are available. The food was so delicious and prompt. I ordered the Avocado toast and added the folded eggs as a side. We also ordered the amazing banana blueberries pancake for all of us as a desert. Their smoothies are amazing and so were there non alcoholic (seedlip infused) drinks. All in all a great, tasty, and well rounded venue. I have been back three times and every time the experience was as nice. I highly recommend. Bon appetite

We went for dinner and the ambiance is good and the servers were nice! the only thing I would have to say is that the portions are a little small for the price. Otherwise everything was perfect!

Booked a table outside at 2pm for 2 people, I asked for in advance if seating will have cover/umbrella some sort of shelter from the rain was told ok, once I arrived they didn't have tables available for me unless I sat on the seats provided next to the restaurant essentially on the street with no shelter and it was raining so we left and found another restaurant, very disappointed I know they don't have space for a lot of seating outside but when a table is booked, make sure everyone seating their know they have a time slot of 1/2 hours so you can fit customers booked accordingly. Seems like it's not managed properly.

This is my first negative review and is only posted due to the restaurant not responding to my emails. Olives delivered without olive sticks, the waitress told us "oh we don't have them".Mains completely lacklustre, "Indian chicken and chips" served with over 1/2 the plate stacked with coleslaw - clearly portioned to save money. at £17.50 absolute rip off. Butternut squash curry had no heat symbol on the menu - upon serving the dish to my girlfriend the waitress joked "no one manages to finish this one"... Broccoli side (£5) was literally 5 pieces of steamed broccoli, not even cooked with any other flavouring. I could do a better job with a camping stove. Tiramisu was frankly embarrassing, literally hard, unsoaked sponge layered with what looked and tasted like squirty cream, topped with coffee flavoured biscuit shards that went all over the table because it was served in a tall thin glass. Staff were absolutely shocking - drinking cocktails at the bar right next to our table whilst on shift, no one was looking after tables and couldn't have cared less about providing good service. I've worked in the service industry myself, and at this price point, it's not much to ask for basic service and good food. I've attempted to contact the restaurant about this and they have ignored my emails. Do not waste your money here.

2 stars may seem harsh, but trust me, it is wholeheartedly deserved.Been before and had a great experience, but this visit was absolutely horrible in every way. Service, food & whole atmosphere of the place has changed for the worse.Went for breakfast last week at 11.15am (had this booked in advance).Waited until 11.35am to order. Then waited 15 more minutes before we even received our coffees. More than a half an hour sitting there being ignored and the restaurant wasn’t even busy? We spent 90 minutes in there for breakfast. Obscenely long.We then received the wrong bill at the end. Service was all over the place. Orders getting lost, waiters not knowing what tables to serve, a shame. Management have to look at the processes.Food was very average on top.Probably won’t be back.

Very overpriced and somewhat unfriendly service. The host didn’t even say hello to us before barking “do you have a reservation with us??” which we didn’t. Our order was noted down wrong and the wrong dish was brought, which was rectified fairly quickly but was awkward. I actually am still thinking about the prices and how outrageous they are for the quality, even in today’s market! The sweetcorn fritters in the photo are £16.50 and extra for the feta and egg! As we left nobody even said bye or thank you. We won’t go back.
