Bayside Pantry

Our favourite cafe in the Illawarra. The BEST menu including amazing coffee, fresh juices, and beautiful seasonal selections made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. It's clear the chefs here love what they do. They have so many delicious choices for both vegetarians and meat eaters- as well as great options for kids. The staff are consistently friendly and the cafe always has a happy, welcome vibe. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Honestly every time I go here the majority of the staff are simply rude. They can barely say hello, ask how are you or take your order in a friendly manner. Today was the tipping point where there was a lipstick stain on my coffee cup. It’s reflective of a lot of younger workers which is amazing but their attitudes are super poor.

I always buy my morning coffee at this busy little cafe when staying at the Motel next door and it’s always fantastic. This time I decided to have breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed my granola bowl. It’s no wonder that this cafe is so popular.

Just had lunch and coffee here about an hour ago staff always friendly and food and coffee always amazing...Keep up the great work guys...See you all again soon...

After looking the reviews online I was really excited to visit this cafe. When we arrived the place looks nice, we ordered and I was really excited. Coffee was absolutely delicious, one of the best I had in a long time. However when we got the food my dish was cold and my husband’s was hot. It wasn’t the same to eat eggs Benedict icy cold. I didn’t let this get to me and decided to order a Nutella bomb. The girl asked me if I wanted warm. I went back to my table and waited around 15 minutes. The staff was happily talking loud as they didn’t have any costumers at the time. I thought was so weird that I had to wait that long for my dish, I asked one of the girls and they didn’t seem happy because I interrupted their talk. They told me that I should wait and it was coming. I was disappointed. I also noticed that all the tables had water and staff were really nice to them. It didn’t happen to us. Real shame as I am a travel blogger and I usually write reviews to help local business. I will need to go back to Shellharbour and find another place.
