Shop local – Vista broadens its horizon

Fans of The Vista Cafe can now order in a range of main meals.

Fans of Pakenham’s Vista Cafe can now enjoy professionally cooked meals at home thanks to the cafe’s new delivery service.

The popular Lakeside Cafe was forced to shut its doors earlier this month when the Federal Government ordered all cafes and restaurants to cease dine-in service. Owner Adam Khan said he decided to shut the cafe completely at that time out of respect for public safety.

Since then Adam and his team have been working frantically to switch the business to a home delivery model until the Covid-19 crisis is over.

Cafe staff will begin delivering meals from Wednesday 1 April.

Delivery will involve no contact with customers. Meals will be dropped at front doors from 5pm to 8pm, Tuesday to Sunday.

Adam hopes the move will allow him to bring back some of his staff let go when the cafe closed.

“It is a tough time for us all and we are doing our best to make this time as comfortable as possible and keep us out of trouble by providing great food at great prices,” Adam said.

The takeaway menu offers many of Vista Cafe’s favourite meals including chicken parma, chicken schnitzel, fish and chips, the Vista burger and chips, chicken scallopini, home style roast beef, pasta with your choice of sauce, Delhi lamb curry and butter chicken.

Kids have the option of chicken nuggets and chips or fish and chips.

Minimum delivery is $30 with a $3 delivery free.

Adam encouraged customers who want a night off cooking at home to take advantage of the delivery service and order in cafe quality food.

“Your support would be greatly appreciated. It is a tough time for us all and we can get through this together.”
