The Coffee Emporium

I love the coffee emporium, the staff are wonderfully friendly, amazing at coffee, and treat every customer very well. The decore includes some very comfortable chairs out the front where you can people watch, and some cozier tables deeper in. In my opinion it's the best cafe in Stocklands.

Service was good, food was amazing!! I got the chicken salad with passionfruit lime dressing and was the best salad ever, my child had the kids serve of waffle ice cream with Nutella sauce and sprinkles. That also was delicious. Will be going back again soon.

EDIT: Revisited and portions seem to be larger and better value. A TCE big brekkie was too large for me to finish (just), and I normally eat very large meals. Score has been increased by one star. Last star missing due to coffee being good but nothing exceptional. Overall a nice place for a drink and maybe some food, but it has what I would consider some easily solvable issues. Firstly drinks. We had ice coffees and they tasted great, but what I did not expect at such a nicely dressed and sit down location was to be served in takeaway cups. Plastic takeaway cups. I initially thought someone must have made a mistake but as I watched other customers being served I noticed the only thing being served as sit down was hot coffee in mugs. Smoothies and other drinks were all being served in plastic takeaway cups. Considering the price and apparent quality I found this very unusual and not at all pleasant. For food I had the TCE Salmon, my review photo is joined. It was mediocre at best. For a full size lunch it was very small and contained little that felt filling. The taste was ok with the salmon and avocado being nice but the toast and cheese lacking much flavour at all. By the end of the meal I felt I was finishing it to not waste food, not because I wanted to. Overall I feel this place could do so much better with just a few touch ups to the drinks presentation and food quality. It looks and feels great and has a surprisingly homey feel despite being in the middle of a shopping centre.

The food was amazing, a little pricey for a shopping center cafe, but in all honestly it was more then worth it, the meals where quite large and, neither me nor my compatriot could completely finish them. The coffee wasnt amazing being slightly burnt, but the milk was perfect and the general tempreture was on point. The atmosphere is suprisingly nice and service was quick and friendly. Our food and coffee came out quickly and the over all experience was enjoyable, 4/5 stars purly because of the burnt coffee
