You can use timeout option in http request. If it reach the timeout limit, automatically it will execute the error block

 $http.get('path/to/service', {timeout: 5000});

Here is the correct syntax for timeout.

$http({
        method: POST,
        url: 'path/to/service',
        timeout: 5000
     }).success(function(data){
        // With the data succesfully returned, call our callback
        successFunc(data);
    }).error(function(){
        errorFunc("error");
    });
 }
});

Or modify the default timeout of http provider similar to following.

angular.module('MyApp', [])
  .config(['$httpProvider', function($httpProvider) {
    $httpProvider.defaults.timeout = 5000;
}]);

Goodluck.
