Squeeze & Grind — Restaurant in Sydney

Yes they were serving customers but not overly busy. After I paid for my coffee and toastie to eat in the barista suggested a table number. When I went to sit at that table a family had already occupied it so I sat next to it. I waited 40 minutes then politely asked a waiter about my coffee and toastie. She said they had looked for me, (funny how I never saw a single coffee and toastie brought out and I watched every service as I was cold and thirsty) and she eventually got the coffee. I waited another 20 minutes then went to the counter and asked about the toastie. A fake red headed older lady came out to my table , stood a distance away and was rude and tried to humiliate me. She told me it was my fault because I had sat at the table next door and that she supposed she would have to get me the toastie but I would have to wait. Several other patrons were almost as embarassed as myself. When the toastie finally arrived it was nothing extraordinary. I asked the waiter who she was and she is apparently the owner. After her rudeness and attempt to humiliate an older lady she has not only cost her establishment. My custom but the custom of a half a dozen other clients who enquired as to if I was ok. Shame on you. With unprofessional behaviour like that you will soon learn that people will not tolerate a service industry who does not understand the word service. May your patrons wake up to your lack of decency...

I’ve been to a few cafes in Camden, Squeeze & Grind is far the best. Think of the grounds of Alexandria and inner-west cafes, they are right up there with them for their quality, taste and presentation for both food & drinks. I like their cold drip coffee and buttermilk pancakes are both amazing. The staff are nice and service is fast because you need to pay upfront rather than waiting for someone coming to take your order. It gets pretty packed on weekends so get in early and get a table. 5 May 2019 Review: the cafe was packed at midday and we struggled to find a table due to popularity. After 11:30am, you can only order from the lunch menu which meant we could try new things. Chicken linguini pasta, Angus beef, sticky pork belly dishes are delish. This is still my favourite to-goto cafe in Sydney’s south west. Go on and try it for yourself and let me know what you think in the comments.

2022: menus have changed, prices have increased, portion has reduced but importantly the food still...

today I went to squeeze and grind for breakfast… Prices were a rip off, and the customer service was terrible. definitely won’t be going back. My allergies weren’t taken into consideration there. I asked the lady at the register for gluten-free bread and some shamshed avo on toast and some scrambled eggs and she charged me $27. I ended up getting feta on my bread even though I have a dairy allergy and stated that, didn’t ask for any feta, I just asked for the gluten-free toast and the smashed avo and scrambled eggs separate.I asked for them to remake it they said “no” so I asked could I get a refund and they also said no one asked me to literally scrape the feta off my bread even though i have a servere diary allergy she didn’t care and continued trying to give the box back. but I know it was because they couldn’t be bothered making it again.I retold her my order and still they ended up remaking it and I only got two pieces of gluten-free toast and avocado as a side for...
