What User likes about Urban Grind Cafe:
Seating is inside or alfresco and it's a fairly quiet cafe nestled up the main street in 'Bally Village'. We had a delicious BLAT on Turkish bread, a wonderful banana nut bread and two well made espresso coffees that had plenty of body.Prices are reasonable and sharing is possible like we did. Our Turkish was on two plates once we told the young lady we were sharing. The cafe isn't sleek or modern but a bit eclectic... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Urban Grind Cafe:
Ordered a toasted sandwich with ham cheese and tomato. It was an open sandwich on a Turkish bread. It cost $12! Was not worth $12. Has gone down hill since been taken over. Won't be going again. Can get a steak chips n salad from collies $17 View all feedback.
