Delicious Sandwich Takeaway Coffee

I walked past the cafe with my son in the buggy at 14:38 (states they close at 15:00 online) and asked the blonde female employee outside if I could order a sandwich for takeaway. Was told, in a defensive way that they had ‘already put everything away’. I understand it can be frustrating when people want served at the last minute (I used to work in retail), however this wasn’t a minute before close time the cafe should possibly change their advertised hours if they can’t serve customers beyond 14:30. It’s a shame as it’s put me off visiting again, and I like to support local businesses as much as possible, especially in Ellon as I live nearby.

Lunch with a friend, decided to try here as my friend said it was good. She couldn’t have been more wrong! Walked in and there was one table left in the corner (it is a small cafe that also does take away food) we went up to order and I could not see a food menu on the wall, just a hot drinks menu, I asked a member of staff behind the counter about a food menu and got ignored, finally at the till there was a small menu, we both ordered separately. I ordered a tuna melt panini with side salad with no onions (I saw the woman write that down on the pad) (to be told that the side salad was an extra £2.00) thought it was a bit much but ok. We went to our seats, I had to wipe the seat down as their was dirt and crumbs on it. Table joined on to ours was not clean and there was marks on the windows inside and there was dust all over a fake plant to my left. Right now I was thinking I wish I had not paid for my food upfront because I was already disappointed. We waited a long time, Lots of people were coming in and picking up stuff and ordering. Some even leaving before they even spoke. There were people who had come in after us to order soups, sandwiches and what not who got their food before us. How does that make any sense? While we waited my friend noticed she had been over charged on her drink and her food as the menu price is not what she was charged, I looked at mine and found the same issue. We both agreed not to bother just eat and get the heck out of this place. Haha Finally we got our food and my first reaction was what the f*ck is this. Onions all over the plate when I had specifically asked for no onions (intolerance) Both of our salads looks absolutely disgusting! Cucumber was dry, salad was well past its best before date was soggy and yellow. Tomatoes were so mushy. Not worth £2.00 at all!!! I didn’t even eat any of it and neither did my friend. But my friend did try the coleslaw and said it was disgusting like it was made with cheap mayonnaise. Panini was nice tho. No one asked us if the food was okay, no one said a thing. It’s like they didn’t care. Also another thing they are doing is passing off cosco baking as “home baking” and Charging not reasonable prices. (Bought the same sort of cakes from cosco myself is how I know) We only came here as our first choice symposium was full.
