I visited this place the day before it was closed (for renovation !?) in July 2015. We heard it was one of the must-gos in Tasmania so we made sure we…

Really enjoyed our lunch today. We had chicken, Camembert and blueberry crepes for mains followed by classic lemon crepes for dessert. My meal was accompanied by an Irish coffee.
Just awful! Ordered 2 Irish coffees but they were dreadful and we couldn’t drink them. Possibly the most unwelcoming restaurant I have ever been in. Dirty facilities and slovenly staff. No wonder it’s up for sale. Avoid!
Don’t go if you have children, or like good pancakes. Came in with my husband, mother-in-law visiting from the UK, and our two children (age 5 & 3). Sat outside, the menu was funny, basically saying there was a surcharge on rowdy children, or they’d be fed to the elephants. Went inside due to wasps. Sat down and ordered, looked up at the specials blackboard which said something like ‘Surcharge on rowdy children. If your Children are rowdy CONTROL THEM!!’. Okay….Looked around and they had all sorts of signs sayings don’t touch this, don’t touch that. Okay…My 3 year old sat at the table next to us, and he lifted the corner (the corner, nothing more) of the daggy leather table cloth. A surly 20-odd waitress came out and said ‘can you get your son back at your table?’ I said, ‘Sure, this business’ view on children is really clear with the signage you’ve got’. Provocative I admit. She said ‘well, if you could control your children, it wouldn’t be a problem, would it?’ in such an awful rude way. Couldn’t believe it. I’ve never experienced such rudeness. Please, if you have children, do not go here. You’re not welcome.Pancakes average.
Disappointing. Food was ok but overpriced. We made a detour to visit as we love quirky restaurants. Really put off by all the notices. Close the door, rowdy kids will be surcharged, and worst of all a 3 pointer in the ladies asking customers to respect the facilities. Sadly they don’t respect the customers as the basin had not been cleaned recently. Coffee not great either.
Overpriced, poor food. The hot chocolate was the worst hot chocolate, it was cold and had no frothed milk what so ever. I couldn’t finish it. The pancakes which I ordered (apple and cinnamon with ice cream) were cold. the apple wasn’t cooked properly and hardly had any cinnamon. I could have made better at home. They also don’t have soy milk, the coffee is grossly disgusting (to the point where you can’t have more than a sip) and was mainly water. The caramelised bananas were hard and not caramelised either. overall, extremely disappointed.
This place has always been a favourite of mine, but has suddenly gone downhill! Very cheap ice cream that tastes like homebrand, flavourless pancakes and way overpriced. Ordered the banberry which was supposed to be banana and berries but only had banana, blueberries and a lot of apple. Very dry with no sauce in it at all. I am guessing the place is under new management. We won’t be back.
A must visit when on the East Coast. Famous throughout Tassy for good reason, an incredible selection of pancakes. Best to find it off the A4 from the St Mary’s end. Only take cash, so be prepared.
