Ordered $30 cheese platter and smoked salmon bagel for takeaway. For the platter, we were not given or asked what choices of cheese we'd get until I asked the lady manager that was in charge which seemed she was in a rush and didnt explain the options for the order and went back into kitchen. From my experience not all cheese types are available for the platter, when I asked for the smoked cheddar they had, was told by front service staff that relayed msg I could only get the chilli and lime or trufflien which I don't enjoy either. Size of the slice of each of the 3 cheese did seem a bit less as I saw a platter of same pricing elsewhere and compared serving but cheese quality was good. The salami must have been frozen as they were stuck together at first but taste was alright. Not too sure if the lack of hospitality was becos we were asian or not or if it's just lack of service on a busy Sat. Staffs at front service were helpful in asking the qs on behalf...

If city cafes, with millions of customers from all over the world know how to approach new faces and greet new people then I’d hope country cafes would adopt similar attitudes....
Read moreI went there coming home from a weeks stay at orange and had been told Millthorpe was a nice place to stop off and have a drink. We decided to on this place and went inside and ordered. One thing I noticed is that the customer service is horrible if youare not a regular. They practically ignore you and they prioritise regulars orders over yours. When I finally got my chai latte after 15 minutes I tasted it and was surprised. I couldn’t taste any chai flavouring and thought ‘ the flavouring is probably just all at the bottom ‘ I stirred the drink and tasted the drink and was annoyed. These people literally made me pay $6 for a some hot milk and foam with a bit of power on top. Never coming back. 1/5 - customer...
