Five Stars for The Pymble Grind: A Study in Potential and Positivity
Review:
Welcome to The Pymble Grind, a charming little cafe where the coffee is a bit like life - unpredictable but generally good. Let's dive into the quirky world of this establishment, where the owner, albeit a rare sight, is like a mythical creature whose presence is felt even in his absence.
First, the staff. They are the epitome of friendliness, serving smiles as consistent as their coffee, which, by the way, can be a hit or miss. My almond milk latte, for instance, had a bit of an identity crisis - it couldn't decide whether it wanted to be a latte or a science experiment on the separation of milk. But hey, it's all part of the charm.
About those display case signs I suggested? Well, they remain a suggestion. But kudos to the owner for his open-mindedness. He's like that cool teacher who nods and smiles at every idea but hasn't quite got around to implementing them. It's the thought that counts, right?
Now, the coffee. It's Campos, which usually sets a high bar. However, on my last visit, my latte was more reminiscent of a slightly overzealous campfire – a bit on the burnt side. But let's not dwell on the negatives. After all, coffee is coffee, and even when it's not perfect, it's still a hug in a mug.
So, why the five stars? Because The Pymble Grind is more than its coffee or its lack of allergen information (which, by the way, is still a bit of a mystery). It's about the potential. The owner, a rare gem, shows a willingness to listen and grow, and that's worth its weight in gold. The staff, with their unwavering cheerfulness, make each visit a pleasant experience.
The Pymble Grind is a cafe with heart, set on the path to greatness, one suggestion at a time. It's a story of what could be, a place of potential and positivity. And for that, it deserves all the stars. Just maybe bring your own milk thermometer, just in case.
