Blackstone Cafe - Mosgiel

Had a very nice Sunday brunch for three adults. Great coffee, food and welcoming staff. Ciabatta toast and spreads were beautiful and the eggs were cooked perfectly. The place was warm and homely and the price was right couldn't ask for more.

We visit Backstone at least once a fortnight, for breakfast and we really enjoy it.  It is our go to place for breakfast dates.  The wait staff are very professional and friendly.  Would recomend to all AAAA

The food here is above average for a cafe style meal, but unfortunately they are let down by their less than attentive service. We ordered the salt and pepper squid salad and the chicken sandwich. The quality of ingredients and mix of flavours was excellent. The squid came with a mojito mayo which was outstanding. The chips with the chicken sandwich would have to be fairly up there in terms of 'best chips in Dunedin '. We were wanting a coffee after our lunch and although we waited for at least 15 minutes, no one came near our table well they did of course, to take orders from other people, but did not clear our plates or ask if we needed anything else. I find this frustrating and common to so many restaurants in Dunedin. On the whole though, the food is worth it, so will make this a regular spot when in the area.

We visited Blackstone on a Thursday evening, for dinner. <br/ <br/ I tend to judge a restaurant by its antipasto platter, and Blackstone 's Mezze platter did not disappoint delicious. Given that it is billed as a 'cafe and bar ', the food is far better than I expected.<br/ <br/ Delicious, quality food, well presented. The Cardrona Lamb Rump was melt in the mouth, and the Rib eye steak was cooked well. Both my companion and I are gluten free and this was easily accommodated both for the Mezze platter and our mains.<br/ <br/ Highly recommended for a good meal out.

These guys know how to do things well, friendly quick service, warm inviting environment and great food. Plus they can cook and present crisp tasty chips! Many other places find this extremely hard.<br/ <br/ I could not fault my cold beer and chicken sandwich at the leaner by the fire.<br/ <br/ If in Mosgiel head here, it's not hard to find.
