Gold Star Snackbar - DOVETON

Stopped here between meetings with a car full off suits. All 4 middle aged blokes in the group agreed very good (bahn mi style) lunch and friendly staff. Shop is a bit run down, but plenty of seating for an impromptu lunchtime meeting, and if the weather is nice, there is outdoor seating across the road. Plenty of parking too.

The entry to this store is a liability claim waiting to happen with a step up in the doorway that offers to teach you to fly. and a sign obscured by the plastic pest trips says watch your step but it only becomes visible as your face rapidly approaches the painted concrete floor just inside.If you survive that hazard and manage to order something from the uninspiring and faded menu board your doing remarkably well for yourself.Once seated i contemplated that most building site tin humpy 's (tea rooms) have much classier furniture and more pleasant ambiance than this place with its greasy windows and tired deco.but it gets worse :The food was Gross how do they get so much grease into a toasted cheese and ham sandwich?On a positive note the Coffee was surprisingly drinkable, and in an ironical kind of way, it caused me contemplate how one should never take good food, a pleasant environment and a safe doorway for granted.I would rate this place at a 1/4 of 1 Star just because I.m feeling generous

Best pork cracking rollers and best hot chips in the area

I had an excellent experience at this restaurant! The customer service was top-notch, and the staff were both friendly and welcoming. I can confidently say that the Vietnamese pork roll I tried was the best I've ever had. I highly recommend this place!

The takeaway coffee was quite good. However, the café itself lacked inspiration, and two individuals chatting in the corner seemed to be a regular fixture.
