Calypso Cafe

Great acoustics, one can actually hold a relaxed conversation here. The service is great and the venue spacious. Good wholesome actual food is available for a reasonable price. Overall a nice place where one can either hold an actual conversation without straining to hear, and get a good wholesome actual meal. Give stars.

Try the daily specials from the blackboard! Reasonably priced, relatively fast, efficient and friendly service for the most part, good sized portions etc. Everything depends on the person serving you though (sometimes even the price). Discounts on bain marie take away portions from 2pm Mon-Fri. Alcohol, coffee, desserts, salad rolls/buns also available. Good range of soft drinks, milks, juices available as well. 5 minute zone free parking out the front.

Went here for breakfast, just plain bad! Me: do you do eggs benedict? Waitress: No Me: can I have a look at your breakfast menu? Waitress: we don’t have a menu, our breakfast foods are over there. Went over & had a look, terrible selection so I ordered some raison toast with a flat white. Me: can I have that with butter Waitress: blank look Me: can I pay with my credit card Waitress: cash only. In the end I got slightly burnt toast with margarine. And they don’t bring your coffee to your table you have to get it yourself. What a terrible start to my morning (I liked the coffee though).

$17.20 for a schnitzel burger and a cup of tea? Its a frozen processed piece of chicken with a bit of lettuce on a bun and a teabag in hot water! Also who cuts a burger in half? The best bit is wrapping your hands around the warm bun and taking the first bite! Thanks alot calypso you took that away from me when you presented me with two ends of a burger.
