Abernethy Lunch Bar - BURSWOOD

I stop here regularly for lunch and know others that also visit here and for breakfast also.The sandwich picture is not usual for them so I'm not even sure it is from the same place? I get sandwiches 8/10 times and they are a good 1.5" to 2" thick with all the salad in them. If you get tuna and salad you get the contents of a small tin of tuna (various flavours available) plus lettuce, tomato, onion, carrot, cucumber etc and can add in jalapenos, avocado, olives etc for a bit extra.  I pay $6.50 and it's on wholemeal bread. I am asked if I want onion, salt & pepper, every time.  The other toppings are chicken, salami, egg, ham, roast beef. I've also eaten their hot meals - the pasta bake on a Monday, noodles on a Tuesday,  Satay Chicken on a Wednesday. I don't go the other days so no idea but its no worse than I'd make at home myself and the serves are large. I have tried their chips and they are good.  The sausage roll in the picture doesn't look like I've seen in their bain marie either, but I've never tried them. If it was, I hope you took it back because the owners would have been shocked too, i'm sure.   If you want a fresh sandwich or warm meal to take back to the office, this is fine.  They have a large drinks fridge to the right and a small milk fridge to the left.  They sell matches, lighters, bagged lollies, potato chips, tic tacs, a few assorted biscuits (tim tams are in the bottom of the fridge!).  They are a lovely husband and wife who always ask after my health and that of my husband.  I'm happy to support this small business, don't let those pictures put you off.
