After a hot afternoon out thought we would pop in to Flinders Village Cafe for a coffee and cake. Two colleagues of my husband had both said the coffee there was good. So we went in, got a nice seat in the court yard and then I went in to order for the 3 of us. The line took quite a few minutes to get from door to register, even though not too long. I ordered two iced coffees and a long black as well as a slice of passion fruit sponge and lemon tart. After awhile our drinks came, it was a hot day so we started. We waited for our cake, people who were served after me got their meals and still no cake so I asked a waitress, she then went off, then nothing, so by this time we had well and truly finished our drinks and I asked again, still nothing and more meals came out. Eventually I got attention of another waitress and said, look I dont want to sound rude, but our drinks came out 35 minutes ago, we ordered cake and I've asked the other waitress twice, even people who came and ordered after us have their meals can you please check our cake? So then CAKE CAME! It was delicious. So we ordered two more coffees hubby went in to do it this time one cappuccino and one long black. Eventually I received my cappuccino. But no long black came. Then again we asked, nothing. Then a waitress came out and said one long black, yes...but she had another coffee so said oh its not yours and took it elsewhere, again people who came after us??? Another five or ten minutes and hubby's long black came. During the course of this their were waitresses coming out with food they had no idea where it belonged...was a real circus.

I will say though, the coffee was good, cake was good, iced coffee had hair in cream ontop and the circus was not necessary.

Would never consider eating there after that experience, but would go if all i wanted was coffee and had an hour or so to spare.

Stopped by for a coffee and cake. It is nice to sit in the courtyard but the music was pumping and it was kind of a dance mix. The coffee was okay. The best part of the passionfruit sponge was the passionfruit icing. It is nice simple cafe fare.
