I’ve been to Pelican Hill Resort Cafe before and always loved the experience, but this recent visit was really disappointing. They no longer allow self-parking — only valet — which feels completely unreasonable, especially for guests who prefer to park their own car. The staff didn’t seem accommodating at all and simply said, “It’s valet only.”

It’s frustrating to see how much the management has changed for the worse. What used to feel like a welcoming, guest-centered place now feels restrictive and out of touch. I truly hope they reconsider their policies and bring back the great service Pelican Hill was once known for.

Great view, but their latte tastes more like warm milk than anything else. I’m not sure what type of coffee they use, but my latte had no coffee taste or texture.

I had a wonderful experience at The Pelican Hill Resort Café & Market! I ordered a hot Earl Grey tea, which was served in a lovely teapot with a matching cup and a side of honey—such a thoughtful touch that made the experience even more enjoyable.

The ambiance was absolutely stunning, with a beautiful view overlooking the golf course. It was the perfect spot to relax and take in the serene surroundings. The staff was incredibly kind and professional, ensuring everything was just right.

Overall, a fantastic place to unwind with great service and breathtaking scenery. I’ll definitely be back!

My tuna tartar was not bad needs a lot more herbs and spices though. The chocolate was delicious. My friends said their food was okay too. Prices were more for really small portions.

The scenery is really pleasant, and the prices for coffee and cold drinks are reasonable, except that the chocolate cake is a bit expensive (US$16.6)!

food is great, but the barista need to be a bit fast .. and also need to concentrate on what customer is ordering… but they are very nice and really friendly
