Reader's Cafe and Larder - Maitland

Care friendly staff who appreciate taste, health local producers. amorelle is a stalwart of the local slow food movement, which is an estimated contribution to the local community. but honestly, there's only his yammo!

Great outlook over the park and kids play area, or sit inside near the library. The coffe is always delicious and the food is tasty. The service is wonderful

I had heard good things about this cafe, but the cabinet was FULL OF JUNK food which made it really hard to keep the kids happy. Food and drinks were ok. 10/10 would not recommend

My husband and I had lunch yesterday and he had the Caesar salad with chicken although he said he wouldn 't order it with the chicken again (too dry) and I had what I thought would be more of a seasonal tart as advertised rather than...a quiche with bacon, mushroom and spinach as I usually try to order vegan style meals. Just goes to show you should get clarification rather than make assumptions and while it was very tasty I will be more careful next time. The side salad accompaniment was fresh and tasty especially with the scant amount of sauerkraut on top. Will give it another go another time, maybe for breakfast. My one criticism was that I thought the menu had too many meals with bacon included in them and not enough vegetarian and especially vegan meal options especially since there are more and more people embracing a plant based whole food diet.

Attended with some work friends, four in all. I requested one piece of raisin toast with a regular size coffee. I was told I couldn’t order one piece as everything is organised in orders, so not to make a big deal I simply said I...would pay for the order but just bring one. There was on issue with the coffee as they gave me the wrong order. I just think it’s a bit over the top paying $12 for a reg coffee and one slice of toast as they are all done in orders. Won’t be racing back.
