Cafe Xs At Carindale

Absolutely bazaar service. I stood in line at the register while she served 1 person for 10 minutes. The cashier wrote down their order on a piece of paper and then punched it into the till asking unnecessary question like "how many people are eating? You have ordered 3 meals but only 2 drinks" It was right at lunch time on a busy day and then after confirming the order on the till which she was so slow at she then roamed around the kitchen area putting the dockets on the boards. Just so wildly in efficient, if she was in training why was she not supported? If she isn't in training why does she still have this job...

Came to meet up with family here. They said food was average so didn't order food. Ordered only drinks from fridge juice and soft drink. They wouldn't give us the drinks immediately, the chick at front who was extremely rude (most staff were all pretty much under age of 18) said couldn't hand us our drinks had to be delivered to our table. I dont understand this and said so could literally grab our drinks and sit and was told again no it has to be delivered. Drinks out of the fridge that went warm on the counter until we got them 15 mins later after a bunch of coffee orders. How is this efficient why not just pass us our drinks and let us sit down all have to do is turn around grab drinks and hand them to us and we sit. I don't understand this inefficiency as a business why double even triple handle drinks that come out of the fridge. Absolutely ridiculous.

A fairly reliable cafe for a feed. Good coffee. Generous portions. Friendly staff. Not sure how the 2 eggs were poached but one yoke was runny, and the other was solid and dry. A little bit of garlic during the sauté of the mushrooms would go a long way. Four slices of bread was extremely generous but probably unnecessary as they dry out and harden before you get a chance to eat them. Would have been happy with just two slices. Social distancing was adhered to and there weren't any tables with dirty plates sitting there (unlike 3 other cafes in the center which we decided not to dine at for that reason alone).
