Powder - MOUNT BULLER

Service is not quite there, more interested talking to their mates than serving customers. Food is okay

While the food was decent, the service left a lot to be desired. We were still eating when the manager repeatedly approached our table, asking if we were finished. The rude manager even told us, “You can’t stay here all day,” despite the fact that we had only been there for an hour. I would not recommend this cafe to anyone.

We had lunch at this restaurant during ski season and felt that the prices were exorbitant for the amount of food we received. My two-year-old fell asleep, so I ordered a few coffees and settled in to read while I waited. However, a waitress I hadn’t seen before abruptly placed a ‘reserved’ sign on our table and walked away. When I inquired about it, a man who I assumed was the manager—without introducing himself—came over and told me something along the lines of, “You can’t stay here all day; we need the tables” even though there were several empty tables available, one of which he chose for himself. After a pointless back-and-forth discussion, I had no choice but to wake my sleeping child and carry all our belongings out into the snow. Other reviews echo this negative experience. I recommend eating somewhere else.

We absolutely love the Powder Bar! The food and service are fantastic. A big congratulations to the staff for a job well done this season. Looking forward to visiting again before the season ends! - JB
