We have been coming to this cafe for over 15 years. Recently it was announced they are closing down for good, so we decided to visit one last time. What a disappointing last visit. Very slow service, place was filthy. My son ordered a glass of milk which arrived half full. The hot drinks were served and the food arrived a good bit later. A table who had arrived after us was served hot food before us. A large party seating near by were loud, no music playing. no atmosphere what so ever. Sadly I'm not sure if we will be visiting any of the 2 sister cafes who will remain open.

Visited Brazilia for the first time and was served by waitress Jenna she was so pleasant and very attentive to our requests- extremely impressed as she was very well trained on allergies- something me and my son don’t see often especially in such young workers! Glad to see such pleasant young people taking such pride in their job!!!

This was a good choice for lunch with the grandkids, one who is too old for the kids' menu and the other who wanted something else. The main menu is extensive, covering main meals, snacks and scones, and there is a separate vegetarian menu. Helpings are generous without being excessive and the scones are accompanied by a selection of spreads and jams. Everything came as ordered and there was no long wait, despite it being busy. The staff were pleasant and helpful.

My friend and I frequent this restaurant on a regular basis. Today I ordered an omelette with three fillings chicken, cheese and bacon also brown bread. Twenty minutes later it arrived it had mushrooms in it. I hate mushrooms the waiter took it away and brought it back a few minutes later. It had been cut open and mushrooms removed and instead of brown bread they replaced it with side salad. I informed the waiter that I had ordered brown bread to which she replied that she will get some bread for me. I told her that I did not want the side salad that I just want brown bread she then asked me do you want me to remove the plate to take the salad of to which I replied yes. This is not the first time a mistake has been made with my order I feel that the staff do not care on another occasion I asked for tea and got coffee. I have no complaints about the quality of the food if I had I would not visit this restaurant my friend and I have decided to go somewhere else the next time we are in Bangor.

Attended today with my mother-in-law. Meal was very disappointing. I would point out that this is my favourite restaurant for breakfast/lunch in Bangor. Always the one I suggest. Today we had a very disappointing lunch. However, upon reflection I wish to comment and concentrate on the owner rather than the food. She noticed a plate of food left, she sent someone to enquire if there was a problem, she came to us directly to discuss, she insisting on no charge, she cared. Today we were disappointed with food, but I haven't been able to stop thinking about how it was dealt with. We didn't need to complain, it was picked up and detected by the owner herself, it was addressed and it was taken on board. I have always loved this restaurant and I totally respect the owner for her attention to detail. Her business is busy because of her attention to detail and normally great food. I suppose that's what caused disappointment today, this place normally delivers on quality food. Although we feel that wasn't the case today, the quality of service today was valued and precious.

Last Saturday was a perfect sunny Spring day for a seaside walk from Cultra to Holywood, County Down, and by the time we arrived in town we were ready to have a rest and lunch. We went to the first cafe on entering town and were very glad that it was Cafe Brazilia. The service,food, and decor were all very good. We shared a bowl of delicious Tomato and Basil soup followed by a Salmon and cream cheese bagel. We finished our lunch with a cup of excellent coffee made from wood-roasted beans and left rested and refreshed for our train journey home..

Visited here a couple of days ago, firstly was greeted and served by two different servers which neither of them clearly had a clue the other had been over already. Ordered a Caesar salad which came out with grease around the rim and fingerprints all over. Noticed a girl going around asking for coffee top ups to every table even if they didn’t have coffee on the table. Food was good but needs a few improvements.

Visited here with my wife for my birthday breakfast. We usually order the savoury pancake filled with bacon, cheese & mushrooms. Served with coleslaw and syrup. This was removed from their menu when it was updated in 2018. It must have been popular as it was "re-instated" and this is what we had. The staff are attentive and courteous. They also open until 21:30 Thursdays, Fridays and Saturday. Recommended.

Three of us came here for lunch on a day out in Bangor. The chicken goujons had 5 big pieces of breaded chicken and a good portion of dry chips. The bacon and pea soup had a delicious flavour and was served with 2 slices of wheaten bread. My spicy chicken sandwich had plenty of filling and was served with a small side salad. There was a large pot of tea and free refills of excellent coffee. The food is more expensive than some other places in which we've eaten recently.

The experience here was an average one, the service was just okay, but as time went on it got better! When getting my food I ordered a baguette, this came with salad and a side of nachos, all was fine but the nachos were very stale. My girlfriend ordered a pancake and all was good there. Overall the look and feel of this place was lovely and it helped with the experience and I would definitely give this place another go although the meal was a tad pricey compared to other places.

Would have passed here if our friend hadn’t mentioned it before we landed in Bangor. From the outside very unassuming but big inside and large enough menu. We were here for breakfast so my husband got the full breakfast which included egg, bacon and sausage and toast which he got as wheaten. I got gluten free toast, egg and beans. Both plates were cleaned, and top up of teas as well as having soya milk. It was a busy wee spot which is a great sign.

Was in here for the first time. A very friendly server gave me a choice between two tables and handed me a newspaper to read as well as the menu. I picked the small fry, told her which way I preferred my egg done and within a very short time it was placed in front of me. I was asked was there anything else that I would like, and when I said that I would like some red sauce, it was brought to me in a small bowl and not in one of those sachets that it takes for ages to open. The fry was very nice indeed and the one very large sausage was the nicest that I have ever tasted !!

Anyone wanting to work for the company I would advise to rethink, I had an interview and was told to come for a trial in the new opening cafe, during my interview I was told I would be getting paid for my shift.. when I went for my trial what I thought was a manger, never introduced herself for one and also barely said two words to me the whole time I was there. Personally this is very unprofessional and downright rude. When if finished I was told by the Manager herself that I'd receive a call from her later that day which I never did, I sent a message a few days later and no one wver got back to me and now 3 weeks later I still had no reply. I never received the money for the trial that I was told I'd be getting for going over. If someone hasn't been successful in a job role at least have the decency to let them know. I am very disappointed as this would be a place my mum and I enjoy going for breakfast but I will never be back.

Brazilia never disappoints. It's a relaxed place to have lunch or coffee and catch up with friends. The food is always good quality but doesn't break the bank. There is a reason why this establishment has stood the test of time when others have been and gone.

I have been going here for a few years now either on my own or to meet with friends. The staff have always been great and still are but the recent menu change has been a very very big disappointment. I can understand the economics of cutting back but if what a customer wants, has always been able to get and is now no longer on the menu, then the customer will go elsewhere. My friends and I will now be looking elsewhere. The menu is not what it was but I'm sure there'll be plenty of choice for others but no longer for me. So sad.

Having been coming to Cafe Brazilia for many years but my visit yesterday will be my last. I called in for a bit of lunch on a Saturday afternoon and as expected it was busy. Standing in the queue to be seated and looking around you could see that some of the younger members of staff were getting flustered. There were free tables at the front that hadn't yet been cleared and with a fast growing queue you would expect this to be some of priority to get tables cleared so customers could get seated. Ten minutes later we were seated and handed a menu. It's a brand new menu and nowhere as extensive at the old one. Was shocked to see a menu change seeing as it was so popular. I opted for a warm tomato and cheese baguette, mostly tomato and barely any cheese and the bread was soggy. Was a bit disappointed seeing as it was priced at £6.90. I would have said something at the till when paying but as I wasn't paying for lunch it didn't seem right. It still seems a pretty popular place but for me it's not what it used to be so won't be back.

A group of friends and I went to this well recommended Cafe for breakfast. Although we had pre-booked a table, and were there before the " rush hour ", the service, though friendly, was rather slow. All of us ordered a standard breakfast, one of the key items on an extensive menu. All arrived after about five minutes. I noticed that my cutlery could have been cleaner : rather than create a fuss, I cleaned them on a serviette. The food itself was of average quality : I would have preferred the bacon to have had rather less fat, and the sausage skin was on the tough side. Although three pieces of bread accompanied the order, no side plate was provided upon which to place them. I considered that the bill ( £ 7.35 ) was a little excessive. On a more positive point, the staff were all friendly and helpful. On balance, however, I'm not sure that I would want to return to this establishment.

Fry cold, pot of tea cold, service good and staff lovely, don't think I will return again, pity as it would have been at one time the best cafe in Bangor. When I rang to book a table the gentleman that answered the phone said, " you can't book at the weekend, join the queue" then hung up, no manners I guess, maybe he had a bad start to the day, nevertheless, very rude!

I had heard great reports so my husband and I went here on our day off for brunch. The décor is tired and dated. The walls were grubby, as was the floor. The toilets were as cold as meat hangers. The menu is vast, so I can only assume a lot is pre-prepared and then microwaved or frozen and then fried. Hubby had a chicken burger that I had a taste off; I can honestly say I’ve had better chicken burgers at the end of a boozy night in the local kebab house. KFC also offer better fare. I had a steak and pepper sauce ciabatta. After 2 mouthfuls I was feeling queasy, probably because of the fatty low grade chewy steak and the soppy peppers and over fried onions. The side salad was a watery coleslaw and a few slices of iceberg lettuce. The portion of chips we shared were most likely frozen chips that had been fried a few times to heat before serving. I had a cappuccino and had to ask the waitress to add an extra shot because it tasted like hot water and milk. In fairness, they brought me a fresh cup, but it was no different. In my opinion, this may once have been a lovely place to visit but I suspect a change in ownership has resulted in a glorified greasy spoon…..and not even a good greasy spoon!! For the record, my standards are not high! Honest! Oh...and this cost us £19! Robbed.

My family and I have been going here on and off for years as we have consistently had good food and service. On our recent visit for lunch we had to wait longer than expected for our food due to the volume of customers, which was relayed to us by the staff member serving us. Again we couldn't fault the food and service we received up to this point. However when trying to pay the bill, I stood by the till, on my own, and waited until a member of staff saw ME. The staff member came to the till, at which point a female customer walked straight up to her, handed her her bill to pay ! Ignorant woman is an understatement, ignorant staff member taling her payment ahead of me, totally unacceptable. To cap it all once she had paid, another female appeared at her heels and did the same thing! Incredibly the staff member took her payment too! At this point another female went to pay ahead of me, and I had to protest that I had been waiting at the till before these people. The staff members response, 'they were all sitting at the same table'! How does this give them the right to just dander up to the till, push in and pay, with the staff member doing nothing about it? Needless to say we will not be back in this establishment.

This cafe was quite busy nd liked inviting,so in we went.it was warm on a very cold day,with quirky decor.we wer seated immediately lovely view from table at window,menus given,drinks ordered.the hot drinks arrived nd orders taken,panini,toasties,fries.came quite quickly,the panini had a v unusual flavour,dunno wot it was,toasties just average,one wasn't heated through nd was soggy inside which was mentioned when server asked if all was ok,but no response.wouldnt rush back here let's say.customers wer offered refills of tea nd coffee but we weren't approached which was a bit disappointing.

A busy cafe with a nice atmosphere. Situated on the seafront and close to parking. Good freshly baked scones.

Friendly service, nice ambience, good food. All in all a very nice customer- friendly experience. Felt appreciated as a customer and that is why I keep going back to this restaurant. Keep up the good work!

Nothing dreadful to say but nothing inspirational either. Mediocre fare at inflated prices. Appears popular but more for its site opposite McKee Clock

I called in here with my son for breakfast during the Christmas holidays. We were seated quickly and thankfully for a change did not have wait in a queue. After ordering food and drinks we didn't really have to wait long at all for the food to arrive, no sign of our drinks however. One of the girls came over and said she would chase the drinks up and they eventually arrived. It was not busy at the time so I'm really not sure why the drinks seemed to be an issue. My family do enjoy calling here but the service is definitely not what it used to be, I believe that if a couple of key members of staff are off then the service level slips. Some of the staff present during this visit looked totally disinterested. We will return for sure but maybe not as often as we used to.

Most Sunday's, I find myself sitting in Cafe Brazilia having brunch. Quite a busy little spot, so you can find yourself waiting on a table coming free - however, when this is the case you know it won't disappoint. Staff hand our menus while you wait on a table, this helps ease congestion in the cafe.I visit with my partner and two kids, staff are super friendly and pleasant. Food is served in good time, cooked to perfection and certainly what I need on a Sunday morning.

This is a great place to get some good cafe food. I enjoy the decor - has a nice feel. It can be a bit slow mainly due to how busy it is. But if you aren't in a rush and have time to relax, chill and eat a good breakfast this is perfect.

All day breakfasts in all variations....scrambled eggs are fabulous, Soups and sandwiches always fresh. Staff are friendly and polite. Always willing to help.Parking is a bit hit and miss unless you are lucky enough to get into the marina car park but its worth it. Sometimes busy at lunchtime and you may have to wait for a table but the food is great.

My friend and I went here for lunch and both ordered steak and mushroom baguettes which were very tasty, they just lacked steak! I don't think that 2 small pieces, no matter how tender they were, warranted the price tag. I would order again as the flavour was excellent but would clarify that they did contain enough steak to meet the description!The service was friendly and efficient.

No nonsense cafe food with reasonable prices and great service from the staff. I really liked the fact that they listened to our request for a window seat, and made sure they accommodated us 5 minutes later. Little things like the free coffee refills mean so much when creating a nice cuddly memory of our trip to Cafe Brazilia. Food was tasty and not expensive. We went on a Sunday at noon without a booking, and maybe due to Christmas shoppers, we were lucky to get 4 people seated. Maybe make a booking folks?I would eat there again without hesitation.

It's a while since I had been here as I had been put off in the past because of a long queue. However last week we got a seat without any problem. We only had lattes, but they were very good and the staff friendly - even better - the lattes were cheaper than anywhere else we had frequented in Bangor.

Close to the marina harbor, Cafe Brazil is a nice place where can have a coffee or a light lunch on a rainy (or sunny) day...

Just had coffee and toast but it came out fast and hot. Exactly what we wanted. Not as busy as it used to be but I think that's more to do with the change in parking spaces outside rather than the food which did look good.

Always enjoy the mid-morning coffee break in this restaurant. Child friendly which is great for our grand-kids who love coffee and scones!

Usually call in every weekend for lunch. Sometimes it can be busy and you have to queue for a few minutes but it soon clears.The service is always quick and polite.The food is pleasant, problems are rare, and over all very good value for money.

Used to come here regularly but had stopped so we returned with high hopes of a decent light lunch. Sadly it was not to be. My mini breakfast arrived with tepid watery scrambled eggs that hadn't been cooked sufficiently, and was returned. It arrived back eventually with warm watery wet eggs that were unpleasant to say the least and inedible, Bacon which I had asked to be well done now resembled Hard Tack! Husband had soda, bacon and fried egg, one of the pieces of soda was damp - but he ate everything as he was starving!!When waitress arrived to give us the bill (there had been no sign of anyone to check on the second lot of eggs) she agreed that the eggs were wet but no reduction in the bill was offered altough she did apologize. Staff are pleasant, service was quick but no, I won't be returning.

We tried here last week for lunch, my boyfriend got the fry which wasn't great, I got a chicken tikka baguette which was totally weird. It was chicken curry that you would have with rice and chips. Not the chicken tikka you would get in a sandwich or baguette! Service was great and the staff were very friendly.

It seems after awhile some restaurants feel they can stop trying once they build up a good following. This seems true here. This place used to be great, now not so great. Our breakfast was not the best we've ever had.

Didn't know what to expect, the place was packed. I had the fish in chips , they were ok, but not like the chippys. My friends had the tuna sandwich. The food was good but for fish and chips go next door to cafe cod

I visit this place regularly on weekends and while always drawn to the fantastic breakfasts there is a wealth of great food on offer and always cooked fresh. Sarah and the team make everyone welcome whether it's your first time or a regular.The busy vibe is testimony to the high regard this place gets from customers. Highly recommended.

First time visit for us but daughter and husband had been here before and thought we would like it, and we did. It’s a small venue so would assume that booking a table would be essential. The restaurant does small plates of food as well as a few larger choices. We went for the small plates and had about 5/6 between the four of us. Great variety of tastes amongst the dishes which included a whole plaice, chicken skewers, green beans (so good we had an extra portion) smashed and fried new potatoes. It’s a little noisy but a good atmosphere, our waitress was friendly and chatty and knowledgeable. They apparently have a steak night once a week which we might do on the next visit to NI.
