I will start this post by saying the food at Servery and Spoon is very tasty - I had the cauliflower fritters with a tasty salsa, and someone else had the breakfast burrito which smelt divine. Additionally the coffee is the Coffee Supreme varietal and made very well - it is the cafe of choice open really early when in need of a coffee on the way to work.
After this glowing recommendation about the food, I will now say stay very clear of the strawberry lamington. The serving size was small (that's ok tho), the flavour covering was very patchy, making for a slightly stale sponge inside. There was a layer of jam in the middle, but this was surprisingly lacking in flavour. The part that really got me and ensured this lamington was at the same level as the BGF lam, was the fatty, flavourless coating, that should have been strawberry (I think?) but was just fatty and flavourless. A disappointing lamington indeed, given the deliciousness of the other food and baked goods in particular. This said I will be back to S&S to sample their chocolate and almond lamington, just in case is fits into the legen.... wait for it.... dary category.
Here is a nice link to an article about Servery and Spoon:
