Plaza Pizzeria & Cafe

Right, so this place definitely seems to have changed. We weren't in at the right time probably, so I would give it another go, cos there was not much going on but the place around the corner was a queue out the door. Nevertheless we had great coffee that came exactly as ordered and the "cabinet food" looked great. Friendly service as well.

Been coming here for 2 years and the big breakfast is amazing, so delicious, good portions and cheap prices aswell. The coffee is top notch and highly recommend. The service is consistent and friendly. Always making you feel welcomed. Wadha is amazing thank you for the service, best cafe in kilbirnie and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a new cafe spot. Cheers, Dali

This little cafe is tucked away in Kilbirnie , in a small shopping plaza. It was one of a small number of eateries open on Sunday, and likely the only one not an international franchise. We’d stopped for a coffee but decided on a light lunch. I had the Seafood Chowder, and had to wait quite a while as the place was very busy. It was worth the wait; a creamy tasty chowder made with a mix of fish, including mussels and vegetables, topped with a sprinkle of finely chopped parsley. The garlic bread was more adventurous than most that are offered in cafes. The garlic butter was laced with mustard seeds, making for a brilliant addition to the fish. My partner chose the vegan samosa, which was well received (a lot sooner than my chowder) with a crisp batter and sour cream accompaniment. Definitely a find!

Just had brunch here, never been before, had the misguided impression it was a "greasy spoon" type of establishment! I was so so wrong. Had eggs Benedict with a side of wedges. Poach eggs perfectly cooked with bright yellow unctious yolks, thick slices of fresh toasted white bread and hollandaise to die for. However, it was the wedges that were pure magic. No idea how they got them so crunchy on the outside and soft and pillowy on the inside, in fact I don't want to know, would prefer to imagine they are produced by the wedge wizard and delivered directly to my table. Thought I'd keep this wee gem of a cafe to myself but I just can't keep a secret

Cheap and cheerful eatery. Very competitively priced dishes varying from $10 for soup and toast to $21 for fish, salad and chips. We had the marinara pizza at $20. We had the gluten free option and agreed it was the best gf pizza we have ever had. Its topping of prawns, salmon and capers was generous and tasty
