Bean Counter Cafe

Would NOT recommend this restaurant to anyone who values their time or cares about customer service. Had brunch here this morning for the first time, was not greeted by any staff and had to ask the barista if it’s table service or sit down. Once seated and our waitress came over, we had to repeat numerous times our order. Over 15 minutes and no drinks, my partners drink finally comes out, I watch as other tables who arrived after us get their coffee before I got mine. I had to walk up to the barista who was talking non-stop to a customer (already had her coffee and seated alone) and ask for my drink (probably the reason for the extremely slow service and over looking a drink on our till docket). My partner got a full breakfast and I had just poached eggs, again 40 minutes to bring out my meal, his food came out at least 10 minutes before mine and was extremely greasy. No care at all, did not enjoy the atmosphere and the tables are far too close to each other, had an extremely loud pair sit beside us I could not even hear my own thoughts. don’t do it.

The man making the coffee (owner/manager?) was really rude. I asked if he could make a coffee in less then 5 mins (before my train arrived). I said it in a joking way and he made a very loud comment to the girl at the register, saying what if someone asked the staff at the supermarket to quickly scan their items as their parking was running out. The cafe is next to a train station surely I'm not the first person to ask this, and I meant no offence. He could have said no if it was that big of an inconvenience. Will not bother him in the future
