We recently enjoyed a wonderful dining experience at the Wooden Mill Café! The best were the chicken burger and sub—absolutely delicious! The marination and spices created a perfect blend of flavours that we couldn't get enough of. Additionally, the team welcomed us with warm smiles, making us feel right at home. Their exceptional hospitality and attention to detail truly set this café apart! Definitely we will be back

Wow Wow Wow! DELICIOUS authentic Manoush and Zaatar and the coffee…. Campos coffee - so good! We went a little crazy and bought so much food and it was all so tasty, definitely hit the spot! One of my favs is the Cheese and Spinach Minis OHHH and the Lahm bi Ajeen! Service is amazing from everyone, Antoinette is always so friendly and helpful, so welcoming! As someone who is Lebanese I highly rate the quality and taste of this food. Will keep coming back for good coffee and authentic Lebanese food!

I never have to say "extra hot" to any cafe for temperature I like. Coffee from here was luke warm. Cafe is noisy which is why I prefer to not eat-in. Staff are wonderful. The door is too heavy for sliding open and close when it's cold.

Wooden Mill Bakery is an absolute delight with top notch baked goods. Every item on their menu is a testament to their commitment to quality! The cozy, welcoming ambience paired with friendly, attentive service makes every visit feel like coming home. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee and pastry on the go or a yummy fresh manoosh every bite is a delicious reminder of why handmade truly tastes better! Amazing cafe!

After dropping off my son at school, I love coming here for a cup of coffee and breakfast. The coffee is nice, the food is delicious, and my favorite is the cheese and bacon bread. The owner and staff are very friendly—it really makes my day!

Good food. First time trying manoush, it was good. Their burgers were good as well. I can say that this is a good place for your brunch whenever you are in Normanhurst. The kids loved the juices and the portions are good, so can say that it is worth what you paid for. You can choose to eat outside the place and be on the side of the street. They have some magazines that you can read or answer while waiting for your food - they even allowed us to borrow a pen. Would be great if they offer free water for customers.
