Open but closed! We decided to visit some hinterland towns and planned to arrive at Homegrown around 1:30pm, for lunch. We entered the cafe at 1:45 and noticed a sign that the kitchen was closed.

Based off other reviews, I probably just got a bad day so hopefully others have a...
Read moreLovely set up outside with an abundance of tables, inside I can only imagine it can get alittle cramped esp with the table set up right in front of the service counter. Menu is very limited but nice to have the option of making up your own brekky. Iced coffee was strong for the size of the glass and 4 ice cubes just doesnt cut it on a stinking hot day, had walked in to ask for more but shop full. Perhaps allocating tables from FOH would help the servers as I saw many customers laying there table numbers on the tables while staff were running around trying to serve their meals... Counter staff were pleasant enough but very monotoned. Guy waiter was super nice, cheery...
