Cafe 85

Bought a chocolate mud cake today. Have never tried anything else that received poor reviews in this post, but I found the chocolate mud cake moist with intense chocolate flavor. The cream that it was decorated with was buttercream, and strawberry glazed, which was perhaps to increase longevity of the cake, but did not detract from the cake. All in all a good cake for a last minute decision without pre-ordering. Service was efficient with minimal chit chat which was fine by me today.

85c Hurstville, bad customer service. A few issues happened in the same time. We bought cakes and some drinks and it was hot inside the store, we noticed two free standing aircon but both were off. The staff at the counter refused to turn on the aircon as the manager is on duty. Secondly they forgot to make my friends drink until we asked them at the counter. Need to review the SOP for this store especially for customer service section.

None of these items tastes like it should. We tried the "tiramisu", "creme brûlée", "Black Forest" and others, and all were incredibly disappointing. There's no taste other than sugar and cheap, artificial ingredients. The "lemon tart" was an overcooked flan filled with lemon paste. I wonder if those two elements were cooked separately. In short: This place is crap. Don't waste your money. Also don't try to pay with eftpos because even if your order comes to $19.70 they'll make you buy another piece of tasteless crap to bump the order over the $20 minimum.
