Not a horrible spot to grab breakfast, although I remember one of the servers reacting rudely towards my mom when she was struggling to find the right words when asking a question. Just gave off a half snicker and almost an eye roll. My mom didn't pick up on it but I seen and caught the vibe, wasn't polite at all and she seemed rather entitled to your generosity when it comes to tip time. I'm actually getting physically angry remembering this. I came here to say some half decent things about the place as I haven't eaten here in months, but now I'm struggling to find anything great to say about the place out of spite. The owner and the rest of the staff shouldn't take any heat for this, the girl probably doesn't even work there anymore. This happened in the spring or the summer, and it's currently December 2024. The atmosphere there is pretty nice, lots of cool art in the place as it's Australian themed. The food doesn't blow me away but it's got good hollandaise sauce for breakfast and I remember enjoying the shrimp sandwich. It's a solid 3.5/5, would probably give it a 4 if I wasn't so pissed at the memory of that one server. Would way rather eat here than at Smitty's.

I freaking love this place. Every time I come, I get the cheese waffle fries, and they never disappoint. Delicious cheese sauce and plenty to cover everything. The hashes are delicious and a good value for your dollar. Unlimited coffee. The hungry man and bush man breakfasts are super filling... and the place is just full of tacky wall hanging things and it's just awesome and fun. Its a diner. But they do it all very well. Will always come back when passing through from Victoria.

I had the most amazing delivery experience today! The delivery girl was an absolute gem—her smile was so bright and welcoming, and she had the most impeccable manners. From the moment she arrived, she made the interaction feel so pleasant and genuine. What stood out to me even more was her attention to detail; after handing me my order with a cheerful attitude, she took the extra time to close the gate on her way out. It's those small, thoughtful gestures that really make a difference. she brought so much positivity to my day, and her smile and kindness is rare to find!

Went there with our family for lunch. All three of my grandsons had bugs in their drinks and not just one bug but several. I feel that the bugs likely where in the carafe that the server brought for refills as this place could use a good cleaning. As for the meals they were so so. Three of them were not served as ordered and one order was returned because it was inedible. Overall a poor experience.

A great place to stop by for breakfast. It was busy, but we got a table for 4 right away. The service was prompt and very friendly. We had the Harbour Skillet and the Harbour Benny's and they were delish! Generous portion size combined with good food and friendly service, what more do you want? Highly recommend!

Went in super early and the place was already busy. They had vegemite which was a treat! Great food and a fun theme that had plenty of Aussie nostalgia. Missing good coffee though! Basically an Aussie themed dinner but well worth the visit if stopping in the area

Me and my 2 brothers received Flys in our ice tea, a few of them at that and we only noticed once our jug was half gone. When we informed the waiter all she said was its that time of the year the Flys come out of the sink, like excuse me. Later in the meal we received soggy calamari, a small beard hair. And they forgot my gravy. They then only discounted our drinks and calamari. DO NOT EAT HERE

I just LOOOOOVE this restaurant!! The waitresses are super kind and always checking in. Food is always presented beautifully and delicious!! Personally my favourite is the chook curry rotini and the portion is good for 2 meals! They have so many favourites on the menu. They also have so many options if you don t have time to dine in. They have pick up which you can order online or call in and they also have delivery online or call in. Love supporting locally owned businesses. Great job Boomerangs Kid-friendliness: Very affordable kids menu and quite a few options

A true port alberni favorite. Whatever you are craving they will have something that will hit the spot. A few of my favorites are the breakfast skillets, beef mexi munchers and the Chipotle chicken sandwich. And if you want to try something different they have kangaroo and camel burgers Parking: Park on one of the adjacent streets as it its busy main street in front. Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor with no stairs.

Loved this place!!! We were there in September 2021 and would consider coming back to Port alberni just to eat here in fact i was going to book a trip just for a visit and then I see it what... you no longer host a dinner service?? What? But that was the best experience?? This is heartbreaking... I sincerely hope this is reconsidered maybe even just for the weekends Im so sorry to hear you guys are awesome I hope it comes back we need you around to bring the people back

December 22, 2023

We visited here today for lunch and ended up leaving without order. We were seated as a family of 5, keep in mind there were only four other tables. No one took our order. We waited for 20mins and when we finally walked up to ask for a waitress, they did not acknowledge us. Oddly enough, it was not even busy. The service was very unfortunate. This restaurant was a special place for my kids 7 years ago however when we came back we were deeply disappointed.

I was very disappointed with the food I ordered since this place was given such good reviews. I ordered the breakfast which consisted of ham, bacon, sausage, eggs, fried potatoes and a small waffle. I asked to have the bacon and the sausage well done. The eggs poached medium ( there was no toast included in this meal) The food came and neither the sausage nor the bacon was well done. In fact, the sausage looked like it was barely cooked. It tasted ok though. The waffle was the size of a hamburger and was heavy and dry. The potatoes were ok and the ham was processed ham that was barely heated. The worst part though was there were egg shells in the eggs!! The waitress took $2 off the bill. Maybe the cook was having a bad day but if I were the waitress, I would not have even brought that out to the customer.

Ordered steak sandwiches and one was done to perfection for medium rare and the other was cooked more to medium instead of medium rare as requested. Caesar salad was brown in spots so wasn t as appealing as we d hoped for. Place has lots of Australian decor which added to atmosphere. Friendly service and prices were average. Tons of variety to pick from, way more than we d expect.

December 22, 2023

Been there twice. Never go back. Had breakfast the first time. It was terrible. Service sucks. Second time had lunch. Ceasar salad was wilty and not much for flavour. Had the beef dip and was the worst Ive ever had. The au just tasted like dish water with a bouillon cube swisher thru it. The only good thing was the fries and coffee. Never go back

Bondi Beach wrap, crab & Shrimp was delicious with Greek salad. Extreme breakfast with bacon, ham & sausage wow.

We ordered take out. The chicken cordon bleu was burnt and hard as a Rock. It appears to have been microwaved or Sat under the hot light for hours. Not at all worth the price of 26$.as for the 20$ seafood Alfredo, it could have easily passed for wall paper paste.a very disappointing dining experience. We took a cab to return the dinner and ask for our money back and they said come back tomorrow because the boss was sleeping? Then they called the RCMP on us and after a 30 minute stand off infront of the other patrons they finally relented and begrudgingly gave us back our money..we will never go back to boomerangs

An interesting menu with an Australian theme, backed by a fairly consistent dining experience.

Ordered the fish and chips, so called cod tasted like something out of a box, chips tasted like they were over cooked and sitting around for a while. Petty ordinary over all and coffee was cold!! I read about how the owners were chefs, which I doubt. Service was great. Poor girl didnt know what the fish was? I am an Australian, wouldnt eat this back home.

Decoration and ambiance was really nice. Service was very fast. Clam chowder is average. The maple chipotle Benny was extremely sweet and had no chipotle flavor. It also had really old looking sausages.

Always a great place to eat when visiting Port Alberni. Great options and service. I wanted to try the Elk sausage with the traditional breakfast and they accommodated my request! It was excellent tasting and worth asking.
