    Do not support this business at all costs! Staff are underpaid and the owner is rude and does not appear to care about her younger employees at all. As for the venue it feels tierd and is in desperate need of new supportive management or ownership that will care about the business and give it a new livelihood that it immediately needs. The management relationship with staff appears to be of very low morale. Anybody looking for a good cafe or coffee in Ashburton look no further than 10 meters across the road at Joe Frank, who are a perfect example of a well run bustling cafe that knows how to treat it's staff and customers well. As a resident of Ashburton for 20+ years, i do not hesitate to tell fellow neighbours and residents to steer clear of this venue.

    Great service, yummy food that had great contrast. Warm Bagle to the cold salmon, spicy pickle I believe and crunchy seeds on top. Ticking all the boxes. Mocha was lovely too. Temperature was just right. Some places have coffees piping hot which I can understand in takeaway cups but when you're sitting in it needs to be at least sipping temperature. Only suggestions would be smaller plate for the bagle or adds some chips to it as the plate was to big for the bagle.

    I always love going to Milk Cloud. Service is quick and food is delicious. Yesterday, I ordered the large vanilla milkshake and I was more than satisfied with the size. I also ordered a delicious avocado and chicken focaccia. Thanks Milk Cloud :) You never fail to please.

    Food was yummy. Upstairs was warm and cosy. Service could have been faster. But they are always busy. The front section downstairs is right next to the bicycle track. Perfect cafe to stop for a coffee on your bike ride.

    Great coffee and friendly staff. Some wifi to catch up on emails and an iced latte to keep me awake in the arvo is my usual MO and this is a great, chilled place to do it. Update: still some of the best coffee in Ashburton (high praise for the competition here) but unreliable opening/closing times make it difficult to appreciate. I sorely miss the old 16:30 closing time and more relaxed atmosphere.

    Our dishes were good except for the lamb super green. The lamb was dry and chewy, not nice at all. So they lost 2 stars for that alone. Coffee was good.

    Friendly staff but delayed food and the presentation wasn't the best but taste is ok. Like some nature is placed inside and haven't had a chance to go upstairs but it is spacious. Coffee was great and there are different cold and hot drinks as well.

    My husband & I patronize this cafe every weekend. The owner & staff are very friendly & know our tastes well. We observe she treats her staff very well. We love the coffee here & the serves are generous. We often bring friends here for breakfast or lunch & they always enjoy the coffee, food and friendly atmosphere.

    Wonderful relaxed environment. All age groups were there, from elderly to families. Really lovely coffee. Food was great! Nice that dogs are allowed.

    A beautiful place to hangout with friends. Coffee is great and food is so delicious. Staff are always friendly and very helpful. Will definitely recommend.

    Service is fairly average β€” the lady confirmed the order twice with me yet they still got the order wrong and had no resolution when I brought it up to the waitress. The table was not set up when the foods come and there were watermarks on the cutlery that I had to fetch from the station. In the orange salmon salad, the orange had loads of pips and the skins were not taken care of. The bacon on one of the toast was burnt. Overall, not a satisfactory experience and will not come back.
