Review of The Globe Cafe by janeypainy on Fri, 31 Jul 2009:

oh dear oh dear oh dear. i had been a regular for ages becuz i thought it was the absolute bees knees, but i have had to change venues. a waitress poured all maple syrup ALL over my black top very recently and 'supposedly' went out back to give it a clean - WHATEVER! the top was just as dirty as it had been before. oh she sed, here's a card for a complimentary coffee; no 'would you like us to get it cleaned for you?' how about i dont bother coming back in here ever again???????

Review of Decadence by janeypainy on Fri, 31 Jul 2009:

i absolutely LOVE this place. i have been here many times and have tried quite a few different things on the menu. i have never been disappointed, everything is superb. it's lovely to be able to sit outdoors and sip a cappucino on a sunday arvo, then hop back to work feeling refreshed!
