Chris and Andrew, the franchisees of the Port Macquarie Hog’s Breath Cafe have been in the family since 2006. ‘Andrew was a sales rep – he travelled up and down the coast all the time, and he chose to eat at Hog’s Breath when he travelled. So when the opportunity came up to open a store here, the brand was a perfect fit,’ said Chris.

Very disappointed as usually the food at a Hogs Breath is good. They had no prime rib due to oven breakdown and the steaks we had instead were fatty and overcooked. Mac cheese had no taste. The service was good and the hostess did let us know their oven wasn’t working before we sat down. Probably wouldn’t rush back.

Not only was the food cooked to perfection, it was extremely tasty and plenty of it! Also, the service from the staff really caught my attention, they were all doing a wonderful job making sure everything was enjoyable for the paying customer. Well done Hoggies! 👏👏👏

Funniest and sweetest experience! The lady sitting across from me was celebrating her birthday with her son, and we got chatting about having that “extra” dessert because… YOLO 😂 Not long after, I went to pay for a dessert for this lovely stranger I’d just met, only to find out the gentleman who had been sitting behind us and had already left had secretly paid for her entire meal and her son’s too! 🥹 So beautiful! She’s now on a mission to find him to say thank you and possibly ask him on a date ☺️😂 We’ve even become Facebook friends along the way! The staff were absolutely wonderful and completely behind the whole thing. They were having as much fun as we were! Special shout-out to Olivia, who mentioned she was still in training. She’s an absolute sweetheart and definitely a keeper. ❤️ Food 10/10 for taste, value and an even better experience!

Whilst on holiday in Port Macquarie, I paid extra to ensure I received a quality cut of meat, so I was very disappointed with what was served. The meat was extremely sinewy and tough, making it difficult to eat. I could only manage to eat about half of it. Given the additional cost, I had expected a much better-quality meal.

The signature steaks at his Port Macquarie cafe is consistently cooked to perfection and the seasonal vegetables + curly fries are recommended sides. The ambience with indoor, deck and garden dining options is rarely offered. Service from the staff was awesome.
