We been to double barrel many times and love taking friends there… the whole experience this time had changed … food didn’t have flavour like normal… was so quiet and still took 25 minutes to be served … then realised that the ownership has changed…. A real shame as this place was a hidden gem

Excellent spot and the weather was spectacular that day. Food was quick and delicious, while being relatively busy. No wine by the glass was a shame.

Made a booking through OpenTable, picked my parents up from Helensvale, drove there.. IT WAS CLOSED. Also, another couple had made a booking and turned up at the same time as us, only to discover it was closed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast visit to Double Barrel at Benowa. We had an excellent waitress, who was attentive to our needs and our food certainly showed that she had carefully recorded special requests. The food was well presented and delicious. Serving sizes were good. Concerns: The cash register is now at the entry point. We had to wait considerable time-despite having a reservation, as a group at the register couldn't make up their mind about their order and no-one could progress until the order was sorted. The same issue happened on the way out when two ladies couldn't decide on the drinks they wanted. Once we were inside we had no menus. The staff member on the register still had a queue to manage. We sat there till we saw the menus outside on the pole. The system seemed to flow better when the register was indoors. Parking is always an issue. It is normally impossible to park in the area where one should park. Illegal pool parking is the only issue.

Disappointment is an understatement. I have been coming to this cafe for years. I am there normally once every fortnight. The owners have changed the menu where a lot of the items that differentiated the cafe have been removed. The ordering process is ridiculous as they have taken away table service so you have to line up in the same line where people are trying to find a table, it is the most disorganised chaos.. Our meals we normally love but our coffees came out 10 min before our meals and were cold by the time the food arrived. When it arrived our toast which is usually beautiful fresh sourdough was cold stale bread. I ordered a side of avocado for $4.5 and got 2 thin slices much less than a 1/4 of an avocado. It has put me off returning. Such a shame as I was a regular.
Double Barrel Kitchen & BarResponded on March 24, 2025
Thank you for your feedback and for being a valued regular. We understand that menu changes can be disappointing, but they reflect seasonal updates and customer preferences. The shift to counter service was a tough decision made to help maintain menu prices amid rising costs, and we appreciate your patience as we refine the process. Our sourdough is delivered fresh daily, baked the day before, and our side of avocado is a quarter, sliced and garnished to complement the dish. We’re sorry if your experience wasn’t up to standard and always encourage feedback at the time so we can make things right. We appreciate your support and hope to welcome you back for a better experience.
