"We had lunch here , and the male waiter was curt when he took the order, then gave my meal to my husband, didn't ask or care who was eating what. Even the way he put the plates on the table was bordering on aggressive....There was never a smile or anything that suggested he cared about us, the food, his job. Then when my husband went to pay, he had the gall to ask for a tip. My husband said no, the service was not good, and he responded by asking where we came from. When my husband said Australia, the response was as if that explained why we didn't tip. Australians do tip, when they get good service. Our daughter worked her way through university in waitressing and was frequently tipped.In fact we had been out for dinner the night before, a tip was asked for , and we gave 15%. At this particular restaurant they were very busy, but the waiter was helpful, smiling, and certainly didn't make us feel uncomfortable like in this cafe. We also noted that the female waitress almost shoved my husband because he was apparently in her way when he was trying to pay. I note all the good reviews seem to date back years ago. Perhaps the problem is you have a captive market , and as most are visitors you know they won't be back so you don't care. And, the food was just okay. The curried lentil soup had okay flavour, but it wasn't very hot, as in temperature), and didn't come with any bread or breadroll. My husbands sausages were cold."
