Seed and Stone — Restaurant in Adelaide

I'm really really sorry for putting in this review, I used to love this cafe, just came back there today for the matcha, and got disappointed.

Many cafe nowadays following the matcha trend but don't really know how to serve or use the powder properly.

Edit: Thought I would give another chance, however the issue still remains with new staff looking as though they have also been taught poorly......after an 8 second shot, the coffee obviously tastes horrible. Sorry guys, I really wanted to like this place as it's super close to work, but you need to...

In the 6 weeks we were in Adelaide Seed and Stone had the best customer service of any cafe and we were at different cafes literally every day. My son and I have a lot of allergies and the staff were able to specifically state all of the ingredients as they had cooked everything from scratch. The food was delicious and the range of vegan options was...
