I love the decor and the whole feeling in general. The food is always served fresh and tasty. This is a great place for a party or work related events.
The setting is what makes this place. There’s so much to look at and it could keep you busy for hours. Very quaint in a great-grandmother kind of way. When I phoned to see if I needed to book for our table of six I found Carel the owner a bit unfriendly and abrupt. Our waitress Patience was so quick-witted and funny she had us laughing right through the meal, she’s a real hoot . Service is a bit lacking though so don’t go if are in a hurry. Most people in our group had a baguette which looked full and tasty, another friend had a wrap which also was rated as quite delicious. I unfortunately ordered the Bobotie pancake and felt cheated compared to everyone else’s meal. It was two small pancakes rolled up with a very small portion of Bobotie which had nothing else on the plate. It looked terrible, tasted mediocre and left me finished long before everyone else and I was still hungry. It should be served with a small side salad or at least garnish. There is no credit card facility and this posed a problem for some of us as we had to scramble between us for cash. They advertise they were votedBest of Ekurhuleni Tea Gardens 2016. Perhaps we went on a bad day so I will give them the benefit of the doubt and give them one more try and perhaps be able to give a more positive review.
Pity this stunning coffee shop was such a let down-Arum Symphony is set in old Boksburg in a days gone by setting-lovely gardens and decor.But didn’t expect too much. Except for the great company and bubbly waitress everything else was a total let down-We ordered their French Toast with Brie & Bacon, it was more like a hunt for a piece of Brie -3 layers of French Toast and Bacon but two 1cm slivers of brie in the dish-We complained and was brought some more on the side-still not enough to my liking-Then the shocker!!!!! I wanted to pay for the bill- NO CREDIT CARD MACHINE!!! only cashWho in this day and age run a business like this?I had to go on my phone and do a bank eft! This was not advised to us beforehand and as I had a urgent meeting to go to I waisted time on doing the eft-such a pity!
