Reviews
"We Visited over the long weekend, they were very busy but the service was poor. The young blonde lady was rude, and kept telling us they couldn’t give us the things we wanted. No iced drinks etc neither the man or young woman even smiled. We could also hear their conversations from the kitchen and very unprofessional language being used The cafe needs a good clean it felt dirty. We will not visit again and recommend grabbing a pie from next door, the young lady gave service with a smile and even helped carry some things out to the car."
"Very Poor Customer Service, every thing was a hassle, would not even serve a mate with us takeaway chip and another customer donuts even though they were on the menu board. We had our small dog with us so had to stand outside the front door to eat, not even allowed to sit at the outside tables, not PET FRIENDLY, food was half cold, they would not even let us know our food was sitting on the counter and the knew we were outside. They have just lost repeat business from our group of nine as we will not be going back. We ride to different Cafes every Sunday and have not ever had this type of very poor customer service and will be posting this to all our motor cycling mates."

"unassuming from the outside, excellent coffee on the inside! worth a stop. The menu has a good range and the quality of the prep and plate presentation is excellent. loved the eggs bene. highly recommend."
"My partner and I stopped in for a late lunch, I got the chicken burger ($7.50) and he got the B.L.T. Sandwich which comes with fries ($15) they were both really good, glad to have some warm food, as there isn’t many options round here. The only reason that didn’t get a 5 was because of the poor service. Both guys were not friendly, one stood at the coffee machine and didn’t even say “hi” or “I’ll be with you in a minute”"
