Pepper N Salt Cafe

We visited on a Thursday morning in time for a late breakfast. The cafe was busy but not full. The clientele were mainly seniors likely to be retired. We ordered the classic breakfast and cheesecake with a coffee and tea. The service provided at the counter was good, no complaints. Our order was delivered to our table within ten minutes of being ordered. We noticed the cheesecake was likely a bit old. It was one of the last slices in the display cabinet. Its age was apparent by the cream on top that was dry and stale. The serving size of the breakfast was quite good and tasted fine however I have eaten better elsewhere. The cafe can improve by having the staff uniformly dressed. Some of the staff were wearing sports shorts which did not appear professional but rather gave the impression of couldn't really care. We also noticed a lady behind the Counter wearing a floral dress handling what appeared to be a chicken loaf with bare hands, bringing it to her nose to smell and then placing it in the serving tray area. This did not appear to be great food hygiene. Overall, I was not particularly impressed by the cafe and will unlikely return.

Had a nice breakfast here. The food was cafe quality and my iced chai was good. My partner enjoyed his food. The young staff however need to build their customer interaction skills. They can come off a bit rude, and one day when I was passing by and wanted nothing but a drink I waited quite a while for the young guy to fill the drinks and then serve me, and he then was rather rude as well. Update: Took my visiting father here recently on a cold day as it is one of the few local cafes with indoor seating. Place was warm and reasonably busy but they got our food and drinks out quickly. Food was a good serving and tasty and we were both happy with our mint hot chocolates.
