Girlbert served me and was a very polite bloke. He was patient with my selection and had perfect customer service !
I recommend cafe presto if you want to enjoy your day around a positive atmosphere and nice food :)

We ordered chicken schnitzel and chicken avocado focaccia. The schnitzel had no taste and was very dry. Unfortunately it tasted bad and a huge opportunity to improve. The chicken and avocado tasted ok. The coffee was nice and the staff members were very polite. Price wise I think it was ok.

Took advantage of taking the misses to this (extremely popular at the weekends) cafe at a more quiet and leisurely time. With a half full seating area, we had the choice of seating anywhere. The misses had pancakes, a child's portion, which is quite adequate, unless you fancy the full pancakes that are absolutely delicious, but about the size of an average Victoria sponge!!!
I had the Buffalo Chicken Benedict.
Both dishes were delicious. A pot of tea and a coffee served in a bowl (similar to how the French drink their coffee) topped the bill to just under $50.
Highly recommended and will be back, just as long as we can get a table!!!

Lovely cafe. Been a few times now and can be a bit hit and miss. On this occasion the staff and food was lovely. Music was a bit loud for a cafe and not exactly soothing. Maybe best of the 80s but mixed with heavy rock. Not quite what you want while enjoying a coffee and lunch trying to have conversation.


We liked the service here. The guy worked on the counter was really quick and gave us a great service. I tried the soup and felt like it was not so fresh. But the wrap was good.


Disappointed. I’m pretty sure they saw this before gave it to me but how? They just don’t care I didn’t get it for free mate I paid money 🤬


Had a lovely brekky date here with my daughter. I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and great coffee. The staff were super friendly and should be commended for genuine service. Cute little café to meet family & friends 🤗


dropped by the cafe a while ago to see that the store was selling r u ok day cupcakes. these were simply devine, though i couldn’t help but feel the only people who needed them were the staff after being verbally bludgeoned by the owner


Friendly staff; beautifully presented delicious big breakfast!!

Usually I don’t like to complain but this was so bad Im incredibly disappointed. Had to wait over an hour for food, I know they were busy but I thought it the food was good it would be worth the wait. I was wrong. The food was way too overpriced for what it was. We had french toast and mushroom delight and hashbrowns. The bread and hash browns were soggy and they served the french toast on a layer of wilted spinach and barely any strawberries. It did not live up to the expectation.

Bit disappointing that whenever we go there are only ever one of the pies that we'd like or none and staff won't make more. Missing out on sales. Pies are yum, just want to buy more!!

Best caramel slice I have ever had. Service was hood too.




Drinks were nice and frothy. The food was flavourful and there was a good amount of sauce/ syrup for the meals. I’d have preferred my egg to have been more runny. Busy place and reasonable priced food and drinks :)

Their coffee is superb, and the sausage roll is simply divine. A must-visit for anyone seeking quality baked goods.

I always get a welcoming reception even when I get there very early morning.
Coffee is best in taste and temperature compared to 5 other cafes I’ve tried at Knox. Clean environment. Very happy to recommend Cafe Otto.

Absolutely gorgeous egg and bacon brioche!! OMG delicious .. thank you Bakery on Linden!!!

Great little place with good coffee.
Dont recommend the peanut butter hot chocolate unless you REALLY like peanut butter because that is the dominating flavour.
Convenient place that's open early.

I order chai lattes everywhere I go and this is the best chai latte that I’ve ever had! Was so smooth and delicious 🫶 also lovely service.





We came on a Sunday at lunch time so it was super busy, we had to wait 15 minutes to get a table and 25 minutes to get our food but it was SO WORTH IT. The food and drinks tasted soooo good and it looked really pretty and fresh. The staff were very friendly. The servings were huge tho I couldn’t finish mine.


It was a lovely experience sitting in the sun after I asked if a table could be moved into the sun. There is also blankets for the customers to use which I did. We only had coffee and cake with real cream. It was yummy with my Carrot cake.
I had eaten half of the cake before I remembered to take a photo. Sorry 😔

The way the boss treated the workers was atrocious. Criticizing them constantly while he made more mistakes.

YOU JUST CANT SIT AND TALK THERE. BUS stop nearby is a crazy noise every 2 minutes. Such a shame, this is the only outdoors sunny spot in the centre and its horrible noisy.
Nothing wrong with the Starbucks, just like usual you see everywhere. Friendly staff and normal services.
The only complain I have is with the Shopping Centre for allocating a cafe next to bus stop. You just can not sit there and have a conversation or anything. Buses 10 ft from the shop are too loud.
Five stars to the cafe, but trust with the advise do not plan to sit there.

Coffee wasn't very good, was bitter tasting and milk was not silky. They served my coffee in a disposable cup instead of a proper cup even though I said I was dining in. The customer service from the older woman was rude and not very friendly. Very curt and not welcoming. Please do better.


This is the worst customer service store i’ve ever been to. The drink is completely tasteless today, and very sour. It likes they forgot to add sugar, and when I asked for a bit more sugar (just sugar), he said that’s extra 10cent for syrup, that i can use sugar bag instead which is useless because the drink is cold, sugar can’t dissolve. It ended up in the bin.

Worst food l have ever received in a cafe.
Fish still frozen, 6 or 8 chips, food was cold and tasted really bad.
Serve decent food and give value for money then you won't get bad reviews

Convenient cafe located outside of Myer at Macquarie Centre. Ordered the avocado bruschetta for breakfast on a Sunday morning. Although it had all of the expected ingredients for a smashed avo (crumbed feta, cherry tomatoes, balsamic glaze), I found the dish to be very average and somewhat bland.


Welcoming and speedy service. Food has always been decent, savoury or sweet. Disappointing portion sizes and steep prices.
I've been going here long before it was "Bakery on Linden", and have been mostly disappointed with the change.
The prices feel steep for the quality and portion size given. I paid $11.60 for an Egg and Bacon Pie and a small coffee (no alternative milk). I can't understand what would make either the pie or coffee near $6 each.
And even then, the coffee left a strange aftertaste, unsure if that was the coffee or the powder used to make it a mocha. I did notice the barista pouring shots to prepare the machine, which was good to see, and may have meant I came in a little too early. Egg and Bacon Pie was pretty good! Very salty and hearty.
Inflation has noticeably impacted bakery good prices but this location so much so. Diamond Burger, a burger joint on the same road, has also noticeably steep prices, but they make up for it in quality and portion size, whereas this place does not compensate their prices or portion sizes in any way.
I would love to be able to come here for breakfast or a snack more often, but with food quality so middle-of-the-range and prices so high, the temptation is not there.
All the best to future customers and I commemorate all hospitality staff.
EDIT: I appreciate their reply to my review, I will give them another shot sometime soon, looking forward to it!

bad bad service accused me of taking her sugar



We had a fantastic brunch at Cafe Elixir today. We did have to wait approximately 15 minutes to be seated which wasn't a problem as we could see they were very busy. We got the Hash Stack and Canadian Breakfast (French Toast) & Caramilk hot chocolate. Presentation of the food was 10/10. The Hash Stack was absolutely fantastic - I would highly recommend it (9.5/10 - would be a 10/10 if it came with bacon). The French toast was a bit too sweet and could have done without the ice cream on top but overall was good quality (7.5/10) The Caramilk Hot Chocolate was a bit disappointing unfortunately (3/10)
All up we enjoyed it and will be back again.

I got a latte and a baguette thing. The coffee was very nice, the best ive ever had in this city but the baguette was so hard like a rock. I think if i came earlier when it was freshly baked i would have had a better experience but it was still worth going here just for the amazing coffee.

Arkaba Cafe & Grill have the best steak sandwich and fries in Adelaide! Plenty more options available and great coffee too. Highly recommended.

Love this spot for breakfast, my wife and I go the breakfast platter for 2 everytime. Great value and variety on this board. We always have some left over. My favourite thing is how accommodating they are, they specially make my daughter a banana smoothie everytime (as there is no plain banana smoothie on their menu). Great spot

Brilliant service. Always fast as well. Very friendly service. Coffee is some of the best, the food is delicious, fresh and hot everytime. This is my go-to place! Thanks guys and girls :)

A old gem in the city. A great place to visit. Accessible with wide open spaces.


Always a lovely spot. They stayed open over lockdowns and continue to support the community. Fresh menu options and tasty coffee



Lovely, tasty, fairly, fleshly, freshly cooked breakfast 🍳
I have known them for many years, and I have my breakfast 🍞 with them at least once a week
Thanks 🍒 beans

I tried the salmon avocado toast and the Hawaiian Chicken burger at Cafe Cherry Beans, and both dishes were delicious.
The salmon avocado toast was beautifully presented with fresh smashed avocado and smoked salmon on top.The flavors blended together perfectly, and the dish was filling yet light. The Hawaiian burger was equally impressive.The service at was exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff. Overall, I would highly recommend both the salmon avocado toast and Hawaiian burger at Cafe Cherry Beans.

A pleasant surprise.
Walked in not knowing the menu. The owner just made me what I asked for regardless. Something you don't find much any more, especially when a business is run by employees only.
Great job.

I had a great time. The staffs were committed to great service and were very friendly. Most importantly the food and coffee was GREAT👍🏻.


Very nice place. Had quinoa salad and was good. Presentation could be little more creative, but other than that, I would eat here again. Service was good as well.


This place has amazing food, great coffee and top knotch service. Have no complaint what so ever🫡🫡

Usually the coffee isn’t too bad but today 6 of us ordered drinks and only 1 (hot chocolate) was drinkable.
1 coffee had sugar syrup in it when it wasn’t asked for. They did remake the coffee however the second time it was bitter.
1 coffee just tasted like milk.
The $10 mango smoothie I ordered didn’t taste like mango and was so bitter it was undrinkable.
Very disappointed :(

I like the atmosphere here. Tucked away at the back of the 225 St Georges Terrace building. The high ceilings and open space makes for a less intense feel. Access to the gardens at the back is also a bonus.



we've used them a few times for some of our events - and they really are good and fresh. quite a good range of options, which includes vegetarian options. staff have always been very friendly and helpful.

Customer service was a little lacking when I visited but the food was really good! I had the Big Bertha sausage roll and it was so delicious!




Was happy with how quick we were seated on a busy brunch/lunch time. However, that quickly fell through. The waiters forgot to bring out cutlery and other things we asked for, the apple juice tasted like diluted apple pear cordial, and the food was a bit cold too. We just didn’t like the feel of the service. Hope it’s better next time as the food looks good when it comes out.


Good coffee and honest service. They made a mistake with our order, they acknowledged it straight away and rectified immediately.

A really nice place for pastries. We go there a lot and my daughter loves their vanilla slice in particular.
I left my credit card there yesterday🙃. I went in just now and you know what? They kept my card safe! Really great people 👍.

I have been going here for as long as I can remember, there service is some of the fastest and the food is always very nice.



Relaxing casual atmosphere, love the special touch of a water bowl for the fur babies (outside), breakfast was delicious 🤤 and amazing and friendly customer service 👍🏼

Decent coffee, and the barista staff are amazing, easily one of the best parts of my day to come down and say hello.

Cafe Otto never disappoints! Food is always served hot a tastes delicious. The toastie and hot drink deal for $9.80 is definitely my favourite. I have been going here since I was young and they has never mucked up my order. Staff is always polite and respectful. I definitely recommend going here!!

Hot chocolate was smooth, chocolatey and all-round delicious. The white chocolateoose cake was good but I have one suggestion, make the moose and the bottom cake part a 1:1 ratio and it would be amazing. The h and cheese croissant was really good. Would recommend

Went there for a late lunch, still lots of customers there. A very popular local cafe with great food. Great coffee and food in big portion with reasonable price ! Will definitely go there again.



One of their many branches. It is located on the ground floor of the mall. It is adjacent to the street. Parking is easy as it is part of the mall. They have plenty of seating inside and outside.
Service and quality is typical Starbucks fare.

This is my favourite Starbucks. Good location near the entrance to Macquarie Shopping Ctr and the main bus station. Friendly staff. Quick service. Variety of drinks and good coffee. We ordered an Almond Cap, Chocolate Frappe and a Cinnamon Scroll...yumm! Plenty of seating area.
We'll be back next time in the area.
We'll be back next time in the area.

It's a beautiful setting but the coffee had a weird aftertaste and my crossaint was hands down the worst I've ever had. It was irredeemably soggy, stale and chewy :(


Excellent range of snacks and meals. I greatly enjoy the iced coffee made by the staff here - full of flavour and made with care. The owner is very friendly and always makes us feel welcomed.

The customer service was a bit below average, wait times on orders despite there being only two other customers was a bit excessive, food was decent, but nothing spectacular, while the pricing was quite a bit more than the quality and quantity of the food deserves.


Been coming here since it opened, great coffee and food however recently had the new fried chicken burger which looked absolutely amazing, shame it was not nice at all but the chips were nice at least.



Dropped by Cafe Southgate on 7 July 2022 and was introduced to the owner Jason. Great host and a good place to come for breakfast!
I was told by my friend who brought me there that the kitchen was running by a Aussie lady. She is really an expert in creating an authentic Aussie breakfast!
The coffee latte was fantastic too!
We came with a larger group of 4 on 9 July and I was surprised that Jason still remember my name!
Will visit him again when I'm in Adelaide again!

had the best latte I've ever had in Perth (after 30 years lol). Well done and such lovely friendly service. Quiet and peaceful spot

The coffee is grim, and there are usually really long wait times. Sandwiches are okay though.






Great place for friends catch up or family gatherings. Friendly staffs with smile on always. Great coffee and breakfast meal portion is large and very delicious 😋 would definately come back again.

Just ordered two Veggie sausage rolls from Menulog And hands down the best jesters I have ever been to!!!
They had just the right amount of pastry to filling ratio and they arrived piping hot !! 🥰
The filling melted in my mouth, so yum !!
Wish I had ordered more !!
Will definitely be back !! Thanks guys 😍🥰

This place lives up to its reputation.
I got the pancakes and absolutely loved it!!!!
I think its the first time I couldn't finish the plate infront of me.
I got a take away container so all good.
The staff are super friendly and bubbly

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great service and food. The BEST Jester's I've been to by far


Good coffee but fail with the food.... who sandwich presses a croissant...?











Good coffee outlet in the mall with the seating is good and have good space.
The quality of coffee was yummy and good.
Staffs are friendly and happy to help.
Ambience was nice
Place was clean and well maintained
The service was really good and quick
Best coffee shop in Macquarie park mall
Highly recommended for coffee ☕️ and also the goodies were decent collection

Apricot slice + cappuccino top notch at 6am.
Coffee was very well balanced. Not too dense.
Popular cafe in the morning for takeaway before work.
The rest of the food looked fine in the display case, something to try for lunch.
Small cafe itself, sits a few tables but very well geared for a coffee on the way by.

Great breakfast location tucked away in the suburbs. Really friendly staff and are always welcoming. The meal sizes are generous and prices are reasonable. From meals to drinks i think this is a great place to catch up, hang out sms enjoy.

Love getting my morning coffee everyday from this place. The manager (alias Mr bond) and Jnr are always a laugh and they make great coffees. Keep up the good work girls and boys


A nice little shop! Greeted warmly, shop was clean and tidy and the mars bar cheesecake was amazing! A great little stop in for a cuppa

Great Coffee. Nice place to sit and enjoy if you have the time.



Been here 3 times this year. The cream filled sweet pastries are pretty good and very fresh but don't pick the coffee cream filled vanilla slice, it was so average. Inside is not a good place to sit down for a cup of coffee and cake and some conversation because the place is squashy and gets very noisy, but they do have an alfresco area.









Variety of delicious drinks at Starbucks made very well. Fast service, friendly staff and nice presentation. I tried the Sakura frappe, has a nice strawberry flavour and looks very pretty. The coffee frappe tasted very nice too, with a good amount of sweetness. Only negative is the paper straws which are at all Starbucks, but it is so difficult to use as the paper goes all soggy, and I have to replace with more straws at least 2 times, so I recommend to bring your own straw. But the drinks are very yummy and service is great, I highly recommend.


Our favourite cafe!! Amazing food, always clean and tidy and the staff are the best :D highly recommend




Sausage roll was delicious, coffee was pretty good too. Lots of seating and nice shop, plenty of savoury goods and if you like sweets (donuts!) then this place has it all too!

Right next to work and love the friendly service and great coffee at a good price. Food is pretty good too.

Chips were over salted and soggy. The giel serving us was nice enough but seemed like she was distracted, she kept asking over and over what we wanted. A mostly uncomfortable experience.

Beautiful spot, almost friendly staff. The coffee is also reasonably good, but the cafe can be crowded in the morning.



Pricey and the coffee isn't great at all, not consistent which makes it difficult to rely on

Outstanding value, service and chicken, mushroom and cheese risotto!! We have travelled a fair bit here and overseas, but here is the best right on our door step. Thanks Vince!

Terrible coffee - too hot, over extracted with no clarity of flavours (I drink black coffee) - but the staff were friendly and efficient. Food is quite tasty and it's a nice spot to sit and read the paper.



*note* This review refers to Tartine at 161 St Georges Terrace, not Trinity Arcade. When it comes to coffee, I'm damn hard to please. After exploring the Perth CBD, I'd practically given up on finding a decent coffee...until Tartine.
I stumbled across this place yesterday and lucked out. I had a mocha coffee flavored with peanut butter. The result was simply perfect. The coffee was strong enough on it's own, but the addition of the peanut butter turned it into something really different.
I'm back here this morning having another cup with an apricot slice. This will be my regular cafe from now on.

Great meal with family, quality food, decent serving, good price for what you receive, nice atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff, have been before and will go again, pokies are here if that's what you want, live music as well tonight, not sure how often, Fri through weekends I think, there is a drive thru bottle dept, motels rooms, upstairs venue nightclub, easy access on the corner of Fullarton and Glen Osmond roads, next door to The Village shopping centre with Woolworths and a few other shops with upper and lower level carpark

Brilliant service, great coffee and food. Great prices.


Excellent chef and good service. Extremely delicious food. Meals are a bit more pricey than other restaurants nearby but this place is worth every dollar. I recommend the chicken and mushroom pasta, it's glorious.



Really friendly service, great choice of food very reasonably priced. Be sure to get in early before the better food is gone :)

Kept up with the quality of pies, chips and coffee to be expected of the Jesters brand. A franchise business with very friendly and lovely owners and staff, serving the local community. Very supportive of the near by school's activities.

Local owners and friendly staff here. Pies are always fresh but its nice to be served with a smile and have a chat. Coffee is better than other Jesters I have been to.
