After all the internal food sit down sites in Chadstone had closed their kitchens with a couple hours of trade left, we remembered Jones outside. Not much to review with a bowl of chips and a ice coffee, but service was good, fast and the food was fine.

Don’t go. It is not worth the wait or your money. Slow service, cold food and badly trained but pleasant staff. it wasn’t worth a star.

I get my coffee from here when I have to go to Chadstone as it’s near my gym so it’s handy. Saying that, the coffee isn’t bad and the service is friendly and can stand a bit of banter which is more than I can say for most of the cafes in Chadstone.

The food and service used to be good but having moved away from the area for more than a year and now revisiting this establishment again, I’d found the menu changed, the service much poorer and the menu tweaked just so slightly towards mediocre. Even the coffee isn’t that good. I would give this place miss unless you have the DeLorean and can travel back in time.

This venue starts with so much promise. Situated on the outside of Chadstone Shopping Centre with big windows, an outdoor seating area and a nicely appointed interior. The menu is good and the food is also well prepared and cooked too. Where this café falls down is customer service. Despite having numerous staff employed in service roles, they are excruciating slow to serve at the counter and at the table. I thought this might have been a once off so I gave them a 2nd and 3rd try. But they failed again and again. I haven’t been back since.

Jones the Grocer has been at the«fancy» end of the new Chadstone food area for a few years now. The deal is, they’re a «fine foods» providore, like an upmarket deli, that also has a café section. I went in for a little something sweet, and perused the cake case where I saw the most amateurish, broken, mis-sized macarons I’ve ever seen for sale. They said they were made by Café Vue. I cant really put it any other way than to say that they should never have been for sale to the public, let alone in a high-end shop. And then to ask over $ 3.50 for them is insult to injury. Stocking old, broken product like that makes me wonder how they are any different to the mom and pop café who are also trying to flog 5 day old cakes. I really expected more.
