This cafe is a real gem! The food tastes incredibly fresh and is packed with flavor. Their coffee is always delicious. What really stood out, though, was the amazing staff. They are so friendly and attentive, making the whole experience a delight. Highly recommend!
Organised catering from Mr Foster's for a few events and was very happy with the quality and presentation. We had a large fruit platter as well as a platter of petit fours style slices which were very well received by our attendees. The fruit was very high quality, locally sourced and flavoursome. The cafe itself has a great atmosphere.
Asked the team at Mr Fosters for 2 takeaway wraps for my next days lunch on the Bibb Track… couldn’t have found a better spot to compliment the tasty wrap thanks so much
I recently had the pleasure of stumbling upon Mr Foster's Cafe while exploring an unfamiliar city, and let me tell you, it was an absolute delight. From the moment I stepped inside, the enticing aromas and lively atmosphere captured my heart. I had the opportunity to try their chicken cheese and salad roll, and oh my, it was a masterpiece. The combination of perfectly grilled chicken, creamy cheese, and fresh salad created a symphony of flavors that left me craving more. It truly showcased the love and passion that went into crafting each dish. Beyond the incredible food, Mr Foster's Cafe holds a deeper significance. It serves as a bridge between cultures, connecting people through shared culinary experiences. Each bite holds the essence of a community and a glimpse into the stories and traditions of its creators. The service at the cafe was exceptional, with a friendly staff that made me feel welcome and valued. The coffee was also top-notch, complementing the delectable dishes perfectly. If you find yourself wandering through unfamiliar streets, let your gut lead you to hidden gems like Mr Foster's Cafe. It's in these moments of culinary exploration that we truly come alive, embracing the thrill of the unknown and savoring every delicious bite of the human experience. Oh, and did I mention the fairy wrens that hop about? They add an extra touch of magic to an already incredible dining experience. Don't miss out on this fantastic place! Alex
What an amazing little place! My daughter’s burger & chips was so huge and my tumeric latte was to die for! Fantastic friendly service! I will drive 2 1/2 hours just to enjoy this place again soon! Thanks so much for a wonderful lunch and beautiful country hospitality
Brian was soo lovely, helpfully and so friendly. We loved this place so much. Lovely calming atmosphere with quirky charm. His salad dressing is absolutely delicious, a must try. I personally think he should bottle it to sell. It is that good. He was great with my special needs child. Also did I mention it is wheelchair friendly and accessible. Huge win in my books
We stopped at Mr Foster’s to have lunch and no regret at all. Staff are so friendly, the place is full of art and gives you tones of positive vibes, the food was amazing, not only delicious but also beautifully designed. Thank you, we’ll definitely come back
Mr. Foster’s is an absolute gem. We ordered two sandwiches and a pot of tea, and honestly, it was some of the best food we’ve ever had. The sandwiches were incredibly fresh, full of flavour, and clearly made with care, while the tea was perfect and comforting. Sometimes the simplest things done well make the biggest impression, and Mr. Foster’s does that flawlessly. We’ll definitely be back — highly recommend!
