Our experience at this cafe was profoundly disappointing from the moment we entered. The bartender, who appeared exhausted, greeted us or did not with an odd look. The venue was disorganized and untidy, which should have been our cue to leave.nnWe decided to try this place as it had received favorable reviews and came recommended by the salon where I get my hair cut. Despite the positive feedback, the reality was different. The tables were cluttered with dishes and glasses from previous guests, and the staff seemed overwhelmed and fatigued, possibly due to being short-staffed.nnOur order included two cheesecakes; the first was the wrong variety and was excessively dry, while the second was under-set and overly soft. The banoffee toast was poorly prepared, and my traditional breakfast was equally disappointing. They even had a chef who could not cook eggs.nnWe considered ordering drinks but were put off by seeing staff carelessly place clean cups near used ones, so we decided against it.nnWhen a staff member inquired if we were satisfied with our meal, I expressed our dissatisfaction. They attempted to address the issue by offering vouchers, which I declined.nnWe left the restaurant feeling regretful about the subpar experience.
Great food and service. Nice ambience and arty feel. 4/5 because the portion is too small for the price. Had the lamb salad - very nicely done and tasted great, just not enough to fill your belly. Pulled lamb was about 1.5 tbsl.. You almost feel guilty for spending so much and not feeling full. To make it worse, I went a public holiday so there was a 15 percent surcharge not their fault though. $25 for lamb salad at normal price is a bit too much for the portion served. I had quick look around and the portion generally seems to be less . I also had chicken burger and fries. Great unique taste - very nice. Fries was ok, but nice touch with rock salt I think . Apart from the portion size, everything is perfect. Must try in Rangiora.
Yum yum yum! I had brunch with family. The gf corn fritters with salad were delicious and so filling. My cappuccino was nice and hot, and my family members enjoyed their choices also. Would definitely recommend and return to dine again :
Lovely food, lovely service in funky surrounds. FOD are great at catering for every dietary requirement with super tasty options. The menu has the usuals, but with some interesting variations. There’s also a cabinet full of tasty options, including some lovely slices.nService was very friendly and helpful. Next time we’re in Rangiora we’ll need to come back and try more of the menu.
FoDs French Toast is something else...the way chef does her caramelised banana creates a wonderfully enhanced treat that is in addition to a well plated simple breakfast. Everything here is perfect, and we came back for seconds after a rural roadie around Rangiora.nThanks for looking after us Fools of Desire!
