Cafe Au Lait - YARRALUMLA

I asked at the counter for a lactose free drink. I asked if I could have the Iced Coffee Lactose Free. They agreed saying they had lactose free milk. An older man comes to serve my drink and it's covered in full dairy cream.I begin explaining that I can not have this because the cream isn't Lactose free and I ordered it LF for an allergy. (Which I stated earlier as I asked if the drink was Lactose Free before ordering. He immediately bristles up angrily and starts talking down at us. Raising his voice and saying that yes it's cream but the milk is lactose free so it's fine. He also informed me it had ice cream in it. That was not lactose free. I tried to explain how lactose intolerance worked. But he kept rudely talking over me. He didn't offer a work around and instead we bought a different drink. Please beware if you have allergies or intolerances. They will serve you the food you can not have anyways. It's negligent and they could have made me seriously ill.

We had a BLT milkshake. Both were great. The BLT was fresh tasty, the best I’ve ever eaten. I recommend!

The cafe owner hovered around my table staring at me until I LITERALLY took my last sip of coffee, when he came straight up to me and asked me to leave. I’d been there 20 minutes (less time than others I could see around me), but because I was solo and had some papers on the table, he decided it was ok to kick me out. I know Covid has made things difficult, but there was a more polite way to have done that. Terrible service and even if the coffee was alright. Won’t be coming back!!

After a walk to Cooleman Court our usual coffee shop was closed so we thought we would try this place . Friendly service . Perfect coffee and Chai and the caramel slice was perfect . Just the right size and a good price . Thanks we will be back .

If you love chicken schnitzel like I do then DO NOT come to this cafe. I have chicken schnitzel regularly when I eat out so I never expected to get a cooked frozen packaged schnitzel from this cafe. Actually I have never had a chicken schnitzel from a frozen packet at any restaurant or cafe until today. For $16 you get a small salad, small amount of chips and a schnitzel cooked from a frozen packet which had a lot of crumb and a very thin sliced so called chicken that didnt even taste nice or like real chicken. I would of expected a freshly cooked piece of fresh real chicken schnitzel. ONLY ate it because I was hungry or I would of left it. I regard this as pretty bad meal and was very disappointing. This meal definitely needs improving especially if you are going to charge $16. Wasted my money here, I will NOT return.
