Looking for a pleasant day out, I got a list of places in and around Hartbee****rt Dam and we came across French Toast Coffee Cafe. The whole concept looked sp amazing. it is a little Paris with a small Eiffel tower even with the bridge with all the locks of friends and lovers names engraved on the lock and becoming part of the decor. Ones first impression is a little Paris with a choice to sit inside the Cafe or outside which serves every dish with French toast, breakfast as well as burgers etc.. They have a novelty shop , a clothing shop as well as a pattieserie with soft French music playing in the background. It was all very cute. We excitedly seated ourselves outside and waited patiently to be served. They were not that busy. We were served by a waiter who abruptly with some irritablity showed us how to scan the menu( what if you did not have a phone) After placing our order we received our drink and were left waiting for our meal for quite some time without making rounds again. By the way the waiter did not bother to introduce him, which every waiter should do. Eventually someone else other than the waiter brought us our food which was so disappointing. A measly breakfast of bacon and eggs with French toast and poached eggs with a hollandaise sauce on French toast ( French bread size) so tiny portions for R98? and that is without coffee. The manager was wondering around and now and then walked to the entrance where people were 'being sanitised, but no interaction with the customers whatsoever. Her lack of training her untrained servers and her lack of keeping her customers happy or doing a courtesy round just added insult to injury making what could have been a pleasant day although costly, totally not worth it. I happened to speak to a friend of mine who coincidently went to French Toast a week later and had the same experience with the serving staff and the disinterest of the manager. French Toast is overpriced and over rated. I will not suggest it to anyone.
