Wattle Park Bakery — Restaurant in Adelaide

I've been a customer of Wattle Park Bakery for over 20 years, from when it was a smallish bakery to now a full seated cafe. I've noted two things, 1) an expanding of their shop and 2) a gradual decline in their customer service to the point of arrogance.
