For lunch yesterday, I ordered a salad sandwich which was served with a delicious side salad. I didn’t expect the serving to be as generous as it was. The service overall was excellent. My compliments to the chef.

Very pleased with my lunch today. $13.50 or so for a simple toasted cheese and tomato sandwich on multigrain and a pot of tea. Not the cheapest I’ve had but close to it, and very nice surroundings to have it in. I was happy with the amount of filling they used, they didn’t scrimp on it like many do. And both staff members I interacted with were very nice

Prompt and friendly service from the staff on today. Food serving size was larger than we'd anticipated (a nice surprise) and was also delicious. Atmosphere was a bit of a let down - wallpaper was peeling off the wall in sections, and cobwebs on the ceiling. We had a lovely experience regardless, and would come back again.

I had the beef burger and chips with a decaf flat white and each one was notably of high quality. Despite getting a decaf it was almost as good as a regular due to brand and preparation. Chips were slightly spiced and crisped just right, the burger Pattie, bun and other ingredients were all fresh and could be tasted separately as part of the whole. Instead of feeling smushed together like at other places. And very noticeably it wasn’t oily! Not even in the small but negligible way, but actually not even a little excess. I don’t know what I’m talking about, I simply enjoyed it and wanted to shout out some well made food. Oh and the service was unobtrusive but helpful as needed.
