I know lots of people who would give Avenue Road Providore's a higher star rating than I have; it's a staple source of family meals and 'bring a plate' quiches that half of Mosman seems to resort to. It's sturdy, uncomplicated food, available fresh or frozen, with a delicious looking range of cakes and slices to boot. So what lets them down? I simply can't go past the Saturday lunch for which we were all craving sausage rolls ... the delicious, juicy, meaty ones with crisp flaky pastry. There were none on display, but they assured us they had some and packed them into a bag for us to take home. But it was all wrong! A sausage - yep, a whole skin-covered Frankfurter-like sausage - sticking out the ends of a blanket of flat uninteresting shortcrust. A huge disappointment - one that I am probably taking an irrationally long time to get over. I may venture back, but in a suburb that is back-to-back deli and prepared food options, it's 'rolled' down my list. So sad. read more

Avenue Road Providores - Caterers Near Me - Mosman, NSW

I found Phillipa B's review very useful as I share her opinon. My husband gives Providores the 5-6 star rating for its gourmet pies but there have been times I have raced in there to get little items such as condiments, takeaway icecream and the dinner packs though the price points were a little exhorbitant and Im not sure it matched the value but thats what I should expect to pay for convenience. I do rate their $4.50 chicken and beef takeaway pies for fantastic taste and value They also do a wonderful honey baked ham. However its true there is a saturation of delicatessens and providores within this area that would make the 5 star rating easily and most of them have seating. read more
