Today I visited Paperbark Café for lunch. Paperbark Café was my deceased husband’s favourite nursery café and over many years we have eaten many delicious meals there.
Today friends took me to the café for lunch as today would have been husband’s 79th birthday.
We were so disappointed by our experience.
The vanilla slices are still MAGNIFICENT!!
But the quality of the rest of our meal was far below the standard I had promised my friends they would enjoy at Paperbark.
The share plate is a shadow of its former magnificence and the breakfast burger and chicken burger my friends ordered were meagre and disappointing.
We don’t mind spending the sort of prices charged for generous servings and delicious food, but this is not what we experienced today.
Our drinks were fine, but next time we will come for morning or afternoon tea to delight in the vanilla slices and perhaps a Devonshire tea, but definitely give lunch a miss.
I am disappointed and saddened.

Approximate cost: $100
