I have heard from quite a few people that it's a great place for lunch so went there recently with a friend. She had a vegetarian spinach ball with salad and I had the toasted chicken sandwich which was the special for the day and highly recommended by the manager.

I was first introduced to the Armstrong Street Food Store when my old manager used to pick morning tea up for us on her way into work. I fell in LOVE with their cakes and had to go there myself. Nestled away in Middle Park next to a cute little wine bar is the unassuming cafe/food store which has an assortment of cakes guaranteed to tantalise your tastebuds. If you're have a bit of a sweet tooth like myself, you can't go past the vanilla slice. While I've often taken cakes away, I've also had the pleasure of eating in and can vouch for the coffee. A great place to pop in on a Sunday afternoon or to pick up some 'homemade' treats when entertaining last-minute visitors. Highly recommended!
