Westside Espresso Cafe

I am not one to write reviews on certain businesses. However, I have visited Westside Cafe a few times in the past, and while my service has been great I definitely will not be supporting this business anymore. I spoke to a young girl who works there a few weeks ago and she mentioned that they are either underpaid or not paid every single week! Not only has this been happening recently, but this has apparently been going on for a long time, years maybe. This really is what happens behind closed doors and it is disgraceful that young workers like these are not being paid correctly or looked after. I have reported this, and will continue to do so until these workers get what they deserve. Shame on you Michael, it’s disgusting that you can put so much effort into satisfying customers but can’t seem to do the same for your workers.

The place may look a little fast-food but they make really nice coffee. The food is simple, fresh and tasty. The staff are super friendly.

Good coffee, and Michael is always up for a good chat while he makes it

Great Coffee. Great Service. Open nice and early to enjoy a cuppa while walking my dog

OMG - the best, BEST roast beef and gravy roll - anywhere! The coffee's not too bad either ;)

Every time I visit Armidale which has been three times each year ,during my stay I visit Westside cafe each morning before uni and have had great service , coffee and meals as well as an incredibly friendly greeting from a gentleman that works there . I had a different server one day and experienced a very scalded and over heated coffee that curtled by young server . The next day I went back and asked my coffee not be over heated as I couldn’t drink it the day before . I had never had a bad coffee here before and knew it was of high standard and anyone could have a busy moment and accidently over heat milk . The gentleman offered me half price coffee (even though I wanted to pay full price ) and proceeded to make me an amazing cappuccino . Coming from a consumer that NEVER complains as I have worked in a cafe and that is not an easy job to please all. My experience was extremely positive and i will be going back each time I visit . Westside is a local gem with courteous and friendly staff 💎

Staff are fantastic. Courteous, happy, Service with a smile, truly cared about their patrons.
