Juice Jar Cafe

Decent coffee, but not worth terrible customer service! I went there for a number of years (I’m a local), some staff were lovely but the owner was always so unfriendly and it almost seemed like an inconvenience to be ordering from them. The last time I was in there, the owner was arguing with another staff member at the counter as I arrived. There were no pleasantries; no greeting; the whole interaction was very cold. The two continued to argue over my order as the male staff member couldn’t work the computer and she had to help him. It was very awkward. I waited for my juice and coffees and the arguing continued. The juice came out of the kitchen eventually by another staff member who also didn’t bother to say anything, just almost dumped my order on the counter and turned around and walked off. As he was walking off he then got snapped at by the owner. I felt SO uncomfortable by the time I left it definitely wasn’t worth the hefty price tag that came with it. I interacted with three staff that morning and not one of them were friendly, let alone said “hello/goodbye/thank you”. I wish this was an isolated experience but unfortunately I’ve experienced this lack of service one too many times here. I won’t be back!

Was ok. Food and drinks were delicious and fresh. Clean tidy venue laid out nicely for a small space. Menu is simple and great for fast prep however pricing is too high, like supermarket ingredients done nicely but needs to be cheaper. Lady behind the counter wasn't having a great day unfortunately, was a bit sour. It's a local spot but won't return as many other better priced options exist.

Disclaimer: I wasn't a customer. My partner and I were looking for a place to sit and the outside of the shop was completely empty. We were rudely told to order something or leave. Now I understand some people reading this will feel it's completely justified, however why a cafe, that probably relies on locals, would risk hundreds if not thousands of dollars in potential revenue to ask us to leave their otherwise empty venue is beyond me. We were simply sitting outside on the chairs, and not impeding their operations of business. Being a frequent visitor of the area I will ensure this cafe never enjoys the patronage of myself or those in my company.

Things I like about the cafe: Good and convenient location in local shopping centre, plenty of carparks, indoor and outdoor seating, friendly service, coffee ok, cake medium ok, nice comfy interior. Things I didn’t overly enjoy: The food: we ordered the super health kick salad, a quinoa salad, a piece of cake and two cappuccinos. Although it said on the menu there were no goji berries in my salad and the tiny avo didn’t really count as ingredient. The dressing tasted like a cheap supermarket product, not homemade I would assume. Both salads were a bit average which is said as we mainly order salads in cafes and this one is close to us. I‘d recommend to upgrade the salad selection to create more value.
