The service and food was exceptional. We were initially seated outside and it was windy. As soon as a table became available inside the waitress asked us if we’d like to be moved. The Louisiana fried chicken burger was 10/10, succulent and fresh. One of the best I’ve had. I’ll definitely return when I next visit Geelong.

King Of The Castle Cafe is a hidden gem! The food was absolutely delicious and clearly made with care, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The service was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. It’s a little off the main Pako strip, so it’s not the most central spot, but it’s definitely worth the extra minute drive up the road. I’ll definitely be coming back for another meal.

Decent coffee with a good range of food offering. The quality of the food was ok, but the service could have been a bit better as we were arranged to sit at the rear outdoor area without the heater for a while. We had to ask the staff member a couple of times before she could help us.

My bestie took me out for a birthday lunch to KOTC, and I can say, it didn’t disappoint! The team were warm and kind when welcoming us in. We arrived around 11am on a Tuesday and I was surprised at how busy it was! It was chock-a-block! They had some great vegan options as well as a solid brekky & lunch menu. Food was tasty and didn’t take long to come out at all! Flavours were good and portion was solid. Thanks to the team for your warm hospitality - I’ll definitely be back. If you’re thinking about visiting for the first time, I highly recommend a pop in! 🙌✨

I had the King’s Breakfast from their all-day breakfast menu for lunch and swapped poached eggs for fried sunny side up—great choice! 🍳🥑 The eggs were cooked to perfection with deliciously runny yolks. Crispy bacon 🥓, juicy grilled tomatoes 🍅, creamy avocado slices 🥑, sautéed mushrooms 🍄, and flavourful baked beans rounded out this satisfying dish. The golden-brown potato hash was beautifully crispy outside and soft inside—absolutely delightful! 🥔✨ The toast was fresh and crunchy, tying everything together. Excellent food, welcoming atmosphere, and friendly service made this a standout lunch. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
