CJ’s Pastries — Restaurant in Sunshine Coast Regional

1 star...because I couldn't give zero! Visited Sunday 10 Feb 2019. Bought a ham cheese tomato sandwich from the display in the counter. Looked OK... cut diagonally and put into one of those nasty triangular plastic containers. BUT, when I got to the shady spot to enjoy my sandwich, I was VERY disappointed. Two slim circles of ham, nowhere near wide enough to reach the edge of the (rather ordinary) slice of bread. Zero butter/margarine. Not even a scrape!

Or was it I was not frumpy with short arms that you could not do such a simple task? The food was ok, a dry roll sadly, although the filling salad was delish. I will...

I can never go past a great pastry or pie shop and when in a rush for a train, had to stop in for lunch here! Have been here a few times as it’s really convenient to the railway, clean, really pleasant, quick service from the staff and good coffee to boot! Today I had time to stop and try a pastry from the extensive pie menu - plenty to choose from and some different choices as well; butter chicken, Thai green curry and Philly steak and jalepeno! My choice was a spinach and feta pastie and chips. Great value and serve size and also have many combo deals, salads and rolls to choose from! Light and airy and plenty of seating and recommend a drop in to...
