The Pantry — Restaurant in Launceston

Our experience was very disappointing. We are not one to complain but this was just outrageous. If we could give it zero stars we would. I ordered the Farmers Breakfast and my partner ordered the Potato and Corn Hash. The Farmers Breakfast was $18 and came with two pieces of white sandwich bread, a hash brown that was drenched in oil, and two pieces of burnt tomato.

Where on earth was the service I read about in...

I was highly disappointed with the service I received today. I was carrying my child and purchased a few burgers and a coffee to go. After receiving my items, I was informed that the bag was sold separately, which is not an issue. However, I was then asked to pay in cash. What I don’t understand is why this wasn’t communicated to me when I placed my order. While the food was tasty, I regret to say I will not be returning due to this experience. My suggestion would be to hire some staff or train your staff to be polite and be more respectful ( which I wouldn't address now) and have...
