"Decent food but not worth the insane price tag. >$90 for two coffees, 4 slices of bread, 2 eggs and less than half an avocado. Please learn from my mistake and spend your money smarter than this. It’s not worth it."
"Coffee is good but not amazing. The taramasalata was the only saving thing for this cafe because the service was cold and blunt. No smiles, no greetings. Cups came out dirty. Dishes were expensive for the size. The mushroom toastie had about 4 small mushrooms, it was super salty and so much cheese it was sickening. This is the second time we visited the cafe and the service honestly hasn’t improved. We only came back for the pate but it was not available and the waitress just rolled her eyes and said it hasn't been available for 2 weeks. Not recommended."
"Very courteous staff even when we turned up near closing time. Generous portion. Nice coffee. In house deli section. Wouldn’t mind going back to try other items on the menu."
"Very mixed feelings about Against the Grind. Pros: great quality food, great selection of sweets, Campos coffee roasted and done right. The inside sitting area is cozy and spacious, and plenty of external sitting area on a quiet street. Also love the deli where you can buy freshly cut cold meets, cheese and other deli products. 5 out of 5 for food, coffee and atmosphere. Cons: the service is inefficient and this seems to be consistent over a period of time. It takes a long time to get a coffee and/or the food when having it in. Last time we asked for table water several times and took a while to get it. 2 out of 5 for the service. Hope the service aspect can be improved as otherwise it is a great place!"
"We have been here for breakfast and it was pretty solid so we decided to give dinner a go. Breakfast was not bad, it was just that the wait was so ludicrous we were annoyed half of our meal turned up and the other half came 30 mins later. Dinner was great, however. The let down was the pasta which had a very sweet taste to it - just the balance of flavours were off, and mushroom pastas have so much potential to shine. The pate was wonderful and the corn spectacular. Looking forward to visiting again to try other items on the menu."
