The Pepper Tree

We absolutely had a great time here with fantastic food (espresso was also good one) and services. While we were looking at the menu outside, one of the staff talked to us casually and explained briefly. I quite liked how he didn't push us to get-in, but let us choose, and we are glad what we did. Thanks! Definitely will come back pretty soon.

DO NOT EAT THE MEATBALLS/FRESH PASTA!! I bought some today and it had GREEN MOULD ALL OVER IT! Someone will get Gastro/food poisoning!! I spent $60+ on takeaway today and although the coffee/cakes etc were decent, the meatball pasta was inedible and foul-tasting. I went to cook the "fresh home-made pasta" and almost threw up when I saw the pasta packet was rotten. I thought the sauce could be saved but the meatballs were like dog-food/ hard bullets with poor quality meat. Btw, it takes 3-4 weeks for green mould to be visible to the human eye in humid conditions so it's about a month old by that estimate. No respect for the customer apparently and just after a quick buck.Disgusting experience! Will never go back again! See the photos for proof! 0/10

3.8 with capacity to ascend. The Pepper Tree seems to have all the elements that make a good modern cafe these days. I like the inside. I’ve always admired the distressed look and they have that here with patches of plaster missing and showing exposed brick. I like the wood and old style light fittings as well. It’s shabby chic and immeasurably more interesting than the decor in a couple of the other cafes in the area. The staff were up and about. I was served promptly and politely with just the right measure of human connection when ascertaining and dealing with my needs. Water therefore came quickly as did the large long black I’d ordered. The coffee was absolutely fine. It was well made and flavoursome and was exactly what I was seeking on this cool grey day. The menu looked interesting here as well. I liked the cafe and I’d certainly return.
