  Stopped by for brunch after hearing a lot of good things about Tall Timber, and was pretty disappointed with the experience.
  Despite going on a Saturday at the peak brunch time of 11:30am, we luckily didnt have to wait long to be seated. The main waiter that greeted us and organised our table was lovely and helpful… but the other waitress we dealt with for the rest of our visit not… quite as good.
  As well as the cafe itself, they also have some outdoor seating and a lovely sheltered courtyard area consisting of a long wooden table and benches with outdoor heaters.
  We started off with a flat white and hot chocolate, and both drinks were nice, though they took a while to come. For food we ordered off the lunch menu and opted for the pumpkin ravioli and Mediterranean chicken… and the food was what really brought the experience down for us. Dishes werent balanced, and wasnt sure what to make of the flavours.
  The raviolis pastry was thick and felt undercooked, and despite the fact that the dish is named pumpkin ravioli it felt like they were trying to hide the fact it was pumpkin. In no way did they try to bring out or complement the pumpkin flavour, but tried to smother it in a heavy curry-like/spice-y flavour and for some reason… they also added balsamic sauce too?
  The chicken on the other hand was a bit dry, and instead of the light, refreshing, herb and spice-y flavour wed expected from the name… it was plain and seemed more like a simple rub.
  Guess we just ordered the wrong things that day? But then… why are these dishes on the menu if theyre not up to the standards of their other dishes?
  Would only come back to maybe takeaway drinks…

  Popped in for brunch with some friends, very busy on a Sunday morning. The wait time was about 10 mins which was fine and the staff were very attentive and friendly.

  My coffee was perfect, my folded eggs were nice however a little on the boring side. I was expecting there to be more of a herb taste in the eggs, however it seemed there were only micro herbs which were flavourless. It certainly wasn’t a bad dish just not an exiting one.

  All in all a nice cafe with a good ambience and great staff, I would definitely come back and recommend.

  Meal: Brunch

  Ordered: French toast, timber folded eggs, juice and coffees

  We visited Tall timber yesterday for Brunch and were treated to a delicious meal. The folded eggs with goats cheese was delicious and the French toast was not too sweet but enough to hit the spot. The coffee was well made too. Good food, fast service and a very friendly environment. A must if you are a brunch bandit!

  Her’s: While the food was quite tasty and felt healthy, our almond coffees were a real disappointment. They tasted like watered down non coffees. We told a wait staff who told his manager…who then came to ask how things were. We didnt know who she was though and thought she was talking about our meals (which were fine).

  The almond milk was an extra $1 which seemed too high…given the result as well. Won’t go back but certainly their meals are instaworthy.

  HIS: Presentable, popular, but poor coffee.

  Came here with high hopes, which were reinforced by amazing coffees. My scrambled eggs were flakes of salt with some egg, my spinach was pure salt and the mushrooms were buttered and salted which made my throat hurt for the rest of the day. Had to get my own cutlery as it was not served before or with the food. This was funny to Mr Dinosaur who launched into his coming to america TRY THE SOUP! routine. Funny, but would not return.

  2.5/5
  I dropped in here for a coffee today. The service was friendly.

  I ordered a strong skinny latte and my coffee was $4.70 plus an eftpos surcharge.

  I saw the surcharge fee sign taped to the table so unless you were looking you would not have seen it!

  Unfortunately my coffee was just pumped out quickly by the 2 baristas without any attention to detail and it tasted pretty ordinary to say the least.

  It wasnt a good start to the day!
