punnet eatery

had lunch here for mother's day with two daughters and grandchildren. we didn't have a booking but were lucky to secure atableas someone had just cancelled. we were provided with complimentary nibbles (delicious) while we waited for our meals (delicious). the children were able to play on the playground while waiting also. we were also given complimentary cheesecake (delicious) at the end of our meal.  the cabinet food selection was lovely so we had to have some to take away! definately be back ☺️

i've seen punnet all over social media so decided to give it a go. beautiful location but they need a sign out on the road. we stood at the sign that said 'please wait to be seated' for five minutes while waiters kept walking by, so we joined the queue at the cashier. we had atablebooked, but it had been given away, so we waited for another. cabinet selection was great but we decided to order from the menu. turns out we were given old menus, and the food we wanted was no longer served. how does that even happen?
our coffees arrived quickly and were great. while waiting for our food a guy came over and abruptly told us the area we were sitting in was closing soon- we hadn't even received our food yet. waited half an hour for the food but it was awesome- a bit pricey but i guess that's what you can expect with organic products.
unfortunately i won't be back. firstly we were ignored, then our booking was forgotten, then we were basically told we needed to hurry up, and waited 30 minutes for food. good food doesn't always make up for poor service.

wow! i am blown away. where do i even start?

walking into the cafe, we were greeted by friendly staff who showed us to our table. the decoration, the brick wall, the wooden furnitures and fresh flower on thetablejust added to the dining experience.

there were lots of choices to choose from, all day breakfast and lunch menu were both available. caters for all.

coffee came quickly and was delicious.

the lamb rump was divine. soft and melts in the mouth. the all day breakfast was filling and flavourful. and the royale we also got, had a decent size of salmon fillet perfectly cooked. nevertheless, ourtablewas impressed with the meal we had.

thanks for this awesome dining experience, punnet cafe! will sure to return again!

came here for lunch with a relative. had been here before, but a lot has changed. they have now added on a shop and more seating.

i ordered the salmon carpaccio with a side of fries and a salted caramel smoothie. the other person ordered the strawberry watermelon salad. did not have to wait long for meals to come out, but since ourtabledid not have a table; it did create confusion for some staff. received the meals and lived up to our standards, presented nicely and tasted good.

after the savoury dishes, we ordered from the cabinet. both ended up with the raw strawberry cheesecake covered in dark chocolate, was nice for each cheesecake to be on a chilled plate.

it does pay to book as the place is very popular for both breakfast and lunch

beautiful place with an interesting sounding menu. it's known to be quite busy and i was glad we had booked atablewhen we turned up and saw how busy it was. i had the kimchi pancakes which were quite tasty, bf had the jerk chicken, which he found bland & quite a small portion. mum had the confit duck and had no complaints. we were told there would be a 30 minute wait on food, but it came out much faster than that, which was great. unfortunately they completely forgot our coffees, which we again mentioned to the person serving us, only for them to be forgotten a second time. we ate our meals and had dessert afterwards, but the coffees never turned up, so we went without.

the food is presented really well, but for the prices they charge ($25 is the average for lunch), our expectation levels were pretty high, and unfortunately not met.

came here with a group of 6 at the weekend and had to change our reservation due to out of towners. the phone staff was very accommodating. got to the restaurant and though it was bustling we got to ourtablein no time. everyone at thetablewas incredibly satisfied with their meals. the only thing that we could mention for improvement was our server was very stuck in his way of providing service. didn't seem to care about his customers but rather get through the day. will definitely be back for the food but this particular server seemed too cool for school.
