Mona Vale Homestead & Pantry

Absolutely lovely little cafe in a great location. Beautiful tea and food was delicious. Staff were very friendly and we will definitely be back.

Monavale has amazing gardens accompanied by this lovely cafe, we were able to sit outside and take in the lovely surroundings whilst enjoying an amazing coffee. Superb!

Be cautious about booking an event here .This was our expierence today.

We won't be back to Mona Vale resturant again.So very dissappointed in their customer service .My husband and I put so much planning into our event at Mona Vale for our 13 guests which was my husbands 60th birthday and being on a very low income we had to save up for this event all through this year.We had two meetings at Mona Vale to plan the event and finialize all the arrangements including the menu and make sure everything was correct .The last meeting we had was just on Wednesday November 4th.The event was today for a party of 15 and when we arrived I discovered that the menu was completely wrong.This was very upsetting as we had put a lot of effort in choosing the menu and it was supposed to be special to as Mona Vale was going to print out a menu for each guest but of caurse the menu was completely wrong and so the menues had to be removed from the table in front of our guests and I had to then lay a complaint in front of our guests about the menu .Mona Vale then said they could do the orginal menu and reassured that they would fix things and give us the menu we had agreed on but when the meals came out I think the vegan and vegetairn meals were in correct and the lamb was lack lusture. Then after mains the staff were supposed to come and offer guests dessert menus and then a little while after dessert a birthday cake was to be brought out for my husband.Well the staff did not come to our table with dessert menues and ask if anybody wanted to order dessert.Dessert was forgotten and instead the cake was suddenly brought out.My son who has worked in the hospatality industry as a chef said the lamb mains were not up to scatch and he said it was unproffessional of Mona Vale not to come to our table with dessert menus and my husband and I feel the same way..Finally my husband and I paid Mona Vale in advance before the day and our payment included $32 for a dessert each for my husband I and 2 non acholic beverages for me at a cost of $16.Well I never had any drinks at the event and my husband and I did not have any desserts as Mona Vale never offered our table a dessert menu so that ment Mona Vale owed us a refund of $48 but they refused to refund us. Feel so very very let down by Mona Vale and feel our guests were let down to.

beautiful setting - excellent high tea and the function room upstairs is great for a private function

Great coffee, no cabinet food though, and menu food is very pricey. Lovely spot for high tea though
