The Ridge Cafe And Studios

Visited a few times recently after doing one of the walking trails. Cakes are great highly recommend both the coffee cake and carrot cake. Service can sometimes be a bit hit and miss. Popular but plenty of seating so have never had an issue getting a table.

Thursday a.m. an excellent time to visit the cafe after our walk. I was with our rescue Doodle in training so the young lady staff member helped by bringing my coffee out to the deck for me, then my cutlery which I’d forgotten. The big breakfast was served quickly, was perfect and kept me going all day. Noisy under 3s were there in abundance but never a nuisance there is lots of room. Summary very good food, coffee and choice, supported by well trained, thoughtful staff. And Doodle loved it too!

Disappointing Americano coffees for the two of us this morning, Sat 15 April. Not up to the usual standard. Definitely couldn't have been made by usual staff as so different. Very poor, weak flavour milk had been put in by staff before serving (please don't do this! which meant we couldn't choose how much to put in according to taste. If coffee doesn't go back to the good standard it's been we won't be purchasing again. Seemed to be almost all new staff. We hope they'll get training from the previous staff to get the standard back!

Friendly fast service, had jacket potatoes, and a chicken wrap, service was friendly and fast. Food was fresh and tasty. Also dog friendly which is a plus

Delicious food. Prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes and high quality of food. Everything homemade and delicious. Staff are friendly and cannot do enough to help. Will definitely be back!
