I was seated at the tables and approached by the owner with a menu. Asked for chocolate milkshakes with ice cream, owner stated that he didn’t know how to do that. I handed back his menu, he rudely asked me to leave, while there were free tables. Petite Madeline received my money instead See less

Really cosy, excellent Cafe in this wonderful shopping mall. Outdoors is great, with full protection from the weather. The food was really tasty and the service was so good. See less

As soon as we sat down we were told we must make an order, I opened the menu and explained I would need some time to choose and the waiter stood over me threateningly and said he would wait for me to make my order. Then once we made the order he tried to take my debit card alone to the register and demanded we pay immediately and not wait for our coffee first. The table was dirty and the waiter complained to us of having nothing to do yet the tables were uncleared. The waiter is obsessed with the fact that his tables are in a shared area and so makes those that sit there unaware feel horrible for making a mistake. The coffee was disgusting, watery and not an enjoyable espresso. See less

Overpriced … the spinach and feta roll didn’t taste good at all. I don’t mind paying extra if I’m getting good food or service. But this one was a total waste See less

Agree with other reviewers after checking when our food was disgusting. $15 bought me a burnt toasted ham and cheese sandwich, with no side and had to ask for a knife and fork, coffee was cheap, shocking blend, another $14 bought 2 others a so-called club sandwich that you had to search for the lettuce, the Turkey was processed loaf, dried up cheese and a paper thin slice of tomato. The bread was so thin loaf bread that was like crisp bread after toasted, one of them was made with the crust. Avoid and find somewhere that will give you quality for your hard earned dollars. I would add photos but it doesn't give that option. See less

The owner (elder man, large glasses) was extremely rude and pushy. Watches over anyone who sits at the table like a hawk and bullies you into getting something there. Expects you to give your card for payment before putting your order in and gave takeaway cups when asked for dine in. Do not go here. See less

Waiting for our food at 10-30am and couldn’t help but observe a filthy floor clearly from previous days traffic being the time of today and seeing the amount of dust on the counter I could have played a game of naughts and crosses . The bin was overflowing and disgusting .... gotta go meal has just arrived and toast just broke my daughters front tooth See less

I never usually review places but this one was just so bad I had to! I ordered toast with eggs and bacon. Toast was rock hard, you could have caused an injury with it! Eggs were over done and bacon was underdone. I paid $16 for a pretty inedible breakfast. Coffee was ok but the rest of it was a complete disappointment. DO NOT RECOMMEND! See less

The service is terrible. I ordered a coffee and a cake and it costs me 20 buck. After i finish eating my cake, I stay there to do my work by laptop not even more than 2 hours. And you trying to kick me out and ask me to leave? What a shame in a coffee shop. See less

Forgot about my coffee order with only 3 customers in the cafe. Coffee was burnt and worse than a fast food chain. Followed this up by kicking me of their table outside the cafe later in the day because I hadn’t bought anything. There was 10 tables spare and no sign of the tables being filled. The owner/manager stood over me until I moved. Far from friendly. See less

I was supporting an elderly lady in her 90s who needs to sit down on a regular basis. Now admittedly we purchased food from another shop, but couldn't find a seat. We noticed that all the seats at the Blackfork outdoor area were empty, we sat down and started eating. After 10 mins a rather rude man, ( I assume the owner ) came to us, he informed us that the area was private and we must purchase something from him in order to stay seated. I tried to explain that we only sat in the area because it was empty, and the elderly lady I was with needed to sit down as she was in pain. The rude man had no sympathy, he wouldn't allow us to stay unless we purchased coffee from him. Now I could understand this if it was extremely busy, but it wasn't and we weren't in anyones way. Also I saw no signs saying for Blackfork customers only. See less

Exceptionally poor experience ... stopped with two others for coffee & cake. Their display case showed some good sized chocolate mousses, in plastic containers, for $11.95 - perhaps a bit expensive, but it was quite a large serving and I was hungry. Anyway, it comes to the table in a glass which contained at most just half the quantity that was on display, topped with approximately the same amount of whipped cream (which looked to be the sort that comes out of a pressurised can). Apart from the vastly diminished serving of actual mousse compared to what was on display, I can't eat whipped cream, so took it back to the counter. The person there refused to exchange the dessert or make any other change or offer to the order - he just kept saying that was the way they served it and nothing could be done about it. I then handed the dessert back - he took it and simply turned his back on me to attend to other matters. I was absolutely gobsmacked - can't recall the last time that I not only had such appalling customer service from a shop, but also at the way they misrepresented the serving quantity and effectively 'cheat' the customer. The drinks were good, and we continued to sit outside for 10-15 minutes finishing them, during which time the counter person made no effort to more positively address the fact that they'd taken my money for a dessert which did not at all resemble what was on display, and which I could not eat. Sadly, my wife's chocolate brownie which she had ordered, while matching what was on display, was - she told me - quite stale, and for some time afterward she had a stomach ache from eating it. Will never, never go back to this shop again! See less
