On Saturday morning the 16th of May we stopped at the Pepper Tree Coffee shop in Philadelphia, Western Cape for a cup of coffee and a light breakfast. We ordered Roosterkoek which is normally served with butter, jam and cheese. The Roosterkoek was not your traditional crispy baked on the coals type that we are used to, but rather a factory bought version with no taste and was under and not baked through. Apart from this we were charged and exorbitant amount for a roosterkoek (R65) and then had to pay extra for the butter (R40) Jam (R40) and Cheese (R40), making this a new world record for the price of a Roosterkoek, which normally sells with all the fillings for R60. I was astounded at this price, and point out that these extra costs are not mentioned on the menu. It is always good to support coffee shops in the country side, but to be ********** like this is, is not a pleasure. Beware people, these are ************ business owners that are charging ridiculous amounts for a simple Roosterkoek meal. Service was slow and the meal arrived before the Coffee we ordered. To this Coffee shop we will never return, but then I dont expect them to be open much longer as they are ripping people Off.
