Exceptionally good value food. Lovely huge wedding reception grounds with large indoor and outdoor seating for good sized groups. The speed of the coffee delivery seems to vary somewhat irrespective of the group size. This however is becoming a regular thing at many cafes with only one barista on. I think it's something to be mindful of if you're pressed for time. I however was happy to enjoy the lovely atmosphere and beautiful gardens and lawns and sit on the wifi checking out some cycling gear I didn't need.😁
Came to Woodlands for a Christmas work lunch (party of 18). I currently have some somewhat frustrating dietary requirements but they were very accommodating in providing me with food that was safe for me to eat. Bonus was that everything was really tasty rather than it feeling like something was thrown together as an afterthought, which I have experienced in other places.
The cafe was very busy with both routine patrons and other large groups like mine and I think the staff handled things quite well. I'm not sure if any of them got time to catch their breath because there was plenty going on, so I commend them for that.
As far as the setting goes, Woodlands is as lovely as ever. The place always feels like a relief from town and traffic and supermarkets and malls. You can just go there and be, even when it is busy. Given the number of people there, it wasn't especially loud which is a benefit of al fresco dining, I suppose. The gardens are lovely and the grounds are perfectly kept. Definitely recommend.
Friendly funny 🤣 staff and nice outlook with heavenly gardens and homestead next door ☺️
